mcfluff1985 Posted June 1, 2016 Share Posted June 1, 2016 This bloke here who does not have the mental capacity to hold a proper conversation with anyone has already been in to meet with the club, and attended the open fans forum trust meeting, where only 5 fans actually turned up. Now that is embarrassing 5 fans at an open trust meeting when there are loads on here who have quite a lot to say quite a lot of the time. One of the main reasons I didn't go in yesterday was I want to speak to Simon Corney and he was not available. It has now be arranged that I may well get a meeting with Simon Corney. You might not agree with what I have done or said but lots of others do. There is no need at all for you to come on the Internet and start making demeaning comments about me when I suspect you don't even know me. Can you post a copy of the notes you took during that meeting? The questions you asked and the answers you got? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So is it because you didn't have time or because Corney wasn't there? Make your mind up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kusunga_Is_God Posted June 1, 2016 Share Posted June 1, 2016 They have no idea what they're doing. They're all sheep. You ask majority of the protesters to say why they're protesting and they can't. That video was embarrassing yesterday. Don't say lack of communication from the club is a problem the turn down a meeting with them. He couldn't meet the club because he doesn't have the mental capacity to hold a proper discussion regarding his concerns. As proved on Facebook yesterday when people were making points to the protesters. They say something like lack of communication so someone says take the meeting. They reply with get out of Corneys arse. Idiots Jesus wept take a step back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blueatheart Posted June 1, 2016 Share Posted June 1, 2016 Several reasons why the meeting was declined yesterday I have not got the time to list them all. What I will say is a further meeting has been offered and subject to availability will go ahead within the next couple of weeks. Also there is the open fan meeting on Saturday that I hope lots of fans can attended. Why won't you go into them? Sounds like a conspiracy. You never tell us anything. Boooooooooooo.

yarddog73 Posted June 1, 2016 Share Posted June 1, 2016 What's with all the protest police? Last time I checked I wasn't living in North Korea, from the picture posted on here I counted a minimum of 40 people of all ages and sexes that's despite it being at short notice on a working day for most, nobody is being forced to participate so why all the angst?If it's not for you fair enough move on.

drphibes Posted June 1, 2016 Share Posted June 1, 2016 One of the big problems with the trust is a lot of people got completely turned off after the Barry Owen era. The damage done to the reputation of the trust will take a long time wipe from people's minds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stevie_J Posted June 1, 2016 Share Posted June 1, 2016 Vaughan actually managed to fail the Fit and Proper Person's Test which seemed impossible to fail, so yes. Koukash is debatable, but he doesn't seem to make many positive headlines. This is pretty much what I was going to say - Vaughan clearly doesn't fit the description 'credible' but does Koukash not? Admittedly, he's a bit of a loony but does that mean his interest was not credible? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

harry1203 Posted June 1, 2016 Share Posted June 1, 2016 I think everyone is in agreement that someone from the club needs to come out and tell the fans what is happening, especially as they knew about the planned protest. Towards the end of the season I thought the club were doing quite well on communicating with the fans but ever since the speculation over Sheridan leaving it seems to have all gone quiet. Personally, I think something is in the pipeline. Either we are ready to enter administration or Corney has lined a buyer up and is trying to recoup as much money as possible before he goes. Each theory would explain why they were so desperate to sell season tickets early and to let Sheridan go. As for protesting, it needs to be planned better. They should have accepted the offer to go in and speak to the club. Maybe asked other fans what answers they wanted before the meeting. Then posted them for all to see and let everyone make their minds up. I don't get the feeling that anyone is happy with the way the club is being run but I do get a feeling that it is only driving more fans away. That's worrying, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sheridan left after getting a better offer and we are looking for a new manager. What else is there to know? Why do you think something has radically changed from the end of last season just because Shez jumped for a higher salary? Or do you think he left for less money?

Why do you think something has radically changed from the end of last season just because Shez jumped for a higher salary? Or do you think he left for less money? Have you read the comments he made during the Notts press conference and quoted on the back page of the Chron? Where he said he had taken us as far as he could & didn't want a season on struggle, given they provide one of the few quotable insights into what went on, do you believe them or dismiss them?

yarddog73 Posted June 1, 2016 Share Posted June 1, 2016 Wasn't it reported that we had matched County's offer or even bettered it but Shez wanted out in any case? This assumption that he went for more money is exactly that, maybe like he said we didn't match his ambition, it's not that unbelievable is it?

LaticsPete Posted June 1, 2016 Share Posted June 1, 2016 It was reported - though unverified - that we had made him an offer. Not that it matched or bettered Notts' . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
