As the most used BWFC fan site, we'd like to gauge opinion

I don't have any big secret. I'm just wary of his style of running the Club and his secrecy (do you know where we are with Blumarble?). Plus the fact that he has got through there finance directors over the past year or so. I am prepared to give him a chance despite his very dodgy past. I'm just not hopeful.

John Pelling, finance director, left to join a premier league club.

Absolute fact.

 

Using that against Anderson is exactly why people get riled up by the trust.

 

It’s absolutely pathetic. It drills home the idea that the trust are absolute moonmen

Saved the Club? Let's see what you think in a year's time.

It is quotes like this that piss me off.

 

What more could KA have done ? If in a year we have gone bust it won’t cancel out what happened in last 12 months.

 

He is/we the only show in town, imagine we had relied on Deano !

 I'm just wary of his style of running the Club and his secrecy (do you know where we are with Blumarble?). 

 

Does he have to tell us? - it's his club, he doesn't have to release that information if he doesn't want to.......it may not be a secret, he may just think it's none of your/our business, and only those running the club (or interested in doing so) should be privy to that information.

 

You strike me as somebody who is just itching for it to go horribly wrong and for the club to fold or be deducted points, just so you can say "I told you so"  -  like the person who every year said "We'll get relegated this season" - eventually, when we did go down, he was very happy to tell everybody that he had warned us it was going to happen......

So, if we are saying that there is no evidence KA or the club are breaking any laws, I think macronman needs to withdraw his comment and we will put it down to ignorance on his part rather than anything malicious

Don't say the ACV? Why the fuck not?

 

The facts.

 

• He wants to sell the club
• The stadium is part of the club.

Stick an ACV on the stadium and it adds an an unnecessary complication to the whole process of selling the club.

 

They wanted to buy the club. Ken did and they've done nowt but piss and whine since.

So it's the ACV and that's all, that does not stop a sale just flags up and dealings that ken might be planning, you don't think that's possibly a good idea? Or are you so far up kens arse you can't see the wood for the trees.

Flag up owt you want but it doesn't stop him

 

Pointless, like your mates

Not as pointless as the fawning you lot on here do over Ken it's utterly embarrassing and whatever little protection given by the ACV is better than the fuck all proetection you are advocating.

Surely the many minority shareholders have a right to know what's going on?

No they don't

That's KA's attitude. Check out company law.

You get told at a shareholder meeting once a year, company don't tell shareholder every little thing they do ... Do you own shares, does that company tell you everything they do ( you being a minority shareholder), because according to you if they don't, they are breaking company law

I’m up noones arse sunshine. Tell me the wood I’m missing.

I’m up noone's arse

 

 

Didn't have noone down as a bender

Personally I prefer to have a supporters trust rarther than not Its fair to say that they haven't been great so far but its fairly early doors & although I am appreciative of Andersons stewardship of the club so far we all know that he is essentially a business man out to make a buck (nothing wrong with that as long as the clubs assets are protected) I also think if he is successful at attracting a suitable investor he is entitled to a few bob.

 

Is anyone from wandersways standing for election for ST board ?

 

If there is I will vote for them just to get some alternative views on board.

 

Previous poster is right to say the effect of any trust is minimal , however as a last resort it could facilitate our club's survival just by having a structure in place.

You don't need a supporters trust taking £10 of about 3 people to activate an ACV or offer protection.

The supporters trust is a waste of time, what have they done other than try and disrupt everything that Ken has tried to do. Ken might turn out to be a complete knob but until he cocks it up I for one are prepared to give him a chance has the more successful we are the more money he will make and good luck to him.

Afraid you and me wasting our time the hatred of 5-6 Trust members stops the whoppers on here seeing any sense whatsoever.

Whoppers ? You mean people such as me with a different view than you ?

He reckons trump tells it like it is, so don't get upset

And let's be honest, ziggy and Mick have long been posting controversial stuff

On this subject afraid so, in my opinion there is absolutely no excuse to not want to have some insurance however slim that insurance might be should the worst case scenario happen, we should be prepared for that scenario in case it does happen and have a vehicle in place so that the club can be saved and continue, otherwise it could be too late, to actively campaign against a ST because of a dislike of certain folk involved smacks of cutting nose off to spite your face.

But

 

The dislike doesn't pre date their involvement with the trust

 

It's all come from their actions while leading the trust

OK.

 

You are totally blinkered on the subject. I am not as you early edited post said ‘up KAs arse’. My views on him or in this thread and I bet very close to your own.

 

The ST is as you say insurance if the really bad thing happens. People like Moonman come on here posting as though that is soon to happen and members of the ST seem to come pouring out of the woodwork at the slightest hint of trouble. But let’s find a comment from them and what a great job somebody has done getting Ameobi back for the season. If we manage to stay up that can only help our financial position and if we do Ameobi looks like being crucial to that so give KA some credit.

The ST are self appointed unelected and unrepresentative- Fact. Until they overcome those points they are nothing other than a nuisance it seems to people who are trying to move us forward.

I know you will not question my loyalty/ commitment to the club I would not question yours so why am I suddenly a whopper ?

So on to the ST itself. Let’s be very honest here whenever a committee or a Group is set up it attracts a certain type of person. That is not knock them but it does. They are simply not the type of people that I like or get on with so I have no interest in getting involved.

You put your faith in this group of people as insurance. I genuinely feel that members of the Trust will only be happy if something goes wrong. This constant ‘you do not know what I know’ posting is frankly pathetic.

The ST and KA it seems are unlikely to work together well. So which do I think is more likely to secure the club the best future ? For all my reservations about KA I would have to say him. That is based on what he has achieved compared to what the ST have delivered. If that makes me a whopper I can live with that.

 

As for you, if you need paying in again at Forest this year you know I will be there for you sweet cheeks ????????????
