little whitt Posted January 5, 2016 Share Posted January 5, 2016 Right then folks.......I have been asked to post the following for you all to have a look at. Few things to help reassure people about the trust… LoV are not in charge or running things. A few of their members have been involved with helping with websites and online etc… but there are only a handful of people who are doing the day to day stuff. Everyone who got involved did so by being brought together by Supporters Direct from people who had contacted them about setting up a trust. We’ve not wanted to keep who is involved secretive, rather we didn’t want to go shouting about who is involved because we’d be accused of wanting to boost our egos or doing it for the wrong reasons etc… Can see how some would see it as being secretive, but honestly that has not been the intention. Who will be in charge going forward will be up to who puts their hand up to offer to help. If the trust is agreed to be set up on Wednesday then we will need people to volunteer to help set it up and constitute it. Supporters Direct will help but we will need people to come forward. Want to reassure people that this isn’t a distraction for the club or the supporters. We are working with the club and they are being kept informed of all developments What is the aim of the trust? That will be up to the membership to decide. It will be whatever people want it to be… but we need people to get involved to help shape it. off who who you getting a reach a round off Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MalcolmW Posted January 5, 2016 Share Posted January 5, 2016 Why don't Radio Manchester do something from there? Someone ring Alan Fullalove. Possibly because ManCity are playing a league cup semi at 8pm. Maybe JD will give a report after the meeting? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which club , if any , of recent times got top flight football after being 'fan owned' ? I think getting to the top flight is the least of our concerns. I wouldn't mind coming out of it with just a football team to support. Preferably not run by imbeciles. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gonzo Posted January 5, 2016 Share Posted January 5, 2016 can someone explain the dislike/hatred of this chris manning? this is a genuine question. I asked this elsewhere and the answer seems to be he's a bit of bell end. And he's not involved anyway. Is he the guy that runs LOV? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Carlos Posted January 5, 2016 Moderators Share Posted January 5, 2016 The guy behind LOV appears to be a bog eyed Wiganer named Liam. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ZiggyStardust Posted January 5, 2016 Share Posted January 5, 2016 Can someone please explain to me the difference between a supporters trust and a supporters association. I'm assuming a trust exists with the plan to own the club, and the SA to be a voice of the fans ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
e2e4 Posted January 5, 2016 Share Posted January 5, 2016 Crystal Palace? Nearly, Simon Jordan bought it instead. Manning might get a chance after the next six owners make a balls of it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frank Costanza Posted January 5, 2016 Share Posted January 5, 2016 (edited) I have it on reasonable authority he isn't involved.

BOWTUN BAKED Posted January 5, 2016 Share Posted January 5, 2016 I have it on reasonable authority he isn't involved. I have it on reasonable authority he is. His involvement was kept in secrecy as he has a track record of winding folk up the wrong way & there was the worry that the whole thing would stall before it begun if he was known to be involved. Apparently he has been useful with media contacts & helping with web based stuff & social media. Though, like anybody else if this gets off the ground, he'd need to be voted in to stay involved Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
