If, it is as bad as you say, then the club would distance themselves from it.

 

not if they are a nodding dog

just look at how it works

the same faces are on the committee, off the committee then back on

its a revolving door

 

fwiw, if we are wrong, they could get their arses on here and explain why?

no reason why they should try to engage with wways, but an offer was informally made just weeks ago

i understand they claim to be trying to appeal to a wider group

im still waiting for even a go and get fucked

 

 

could a member tell me where the legends day funds ended up - take it theyve a few grand in the bank after that, or did it go the the BWFCCT

Surely income and expenditure will appear on a balance sheet at their AGM. They do have an AGM don’t they?

id expect them to email a set of accounts to the members

Perhaps the folk they encourage to become members are also encouraged not to ask searching questions.

All the more reason to become a member then?

Accusations banded about, about the governance, but nothing done about it.

Folk being elected, then coming off the committee, then back on- that isn't necessarily unconstitutional, it might indicate (as I've said previously) that some board members want off, but maybe no one is showing to take over.

If it is corrupt, the  the club will want something done, and for obvious reasons, his nodding dog comment (whatever that is actually supposed to mean) on the face of it would suggest the club would be happy to turn a blind eye, which they categorically wouldn't. Sharon has pitched herself well away from such behaviours.

I think you’re looking for a reaction from completely the opposite direction with regards the nodding dog accusation. I think it is perhaps the ST nodding in agreement with the board rather than the board nodding in agreement with the ST. Surely it’d be in Neil Hart’s favour to have a ST who sat there agreeing with him and stroking his ego rather than one with lots of ah-butting and constantly throwing up obstacles.

What do you think the ST should be railing against?

Maybe they should be asking the 'supporters they represent' this.

As you have seen above though they have no interest.

They can fuck off the nobheads

You can contact them for free, or join up as a member for £10 a year. I doubt they've got a database of every single Bolton supporter in the world, or the facilities to contact every single one of us. What is it you think they should be railing against?

This site has contacted them, as have others.  They've been fired off.

Folk have even tried to join the board (from memory you needed to be accepted then seconded by a current board member).  They've been fired off.

I think they should answer the questions posed to them when they post on Facebook such as Casinos.  They dont though, they just delete the comments.

Not fit for purpose comes to mind

Its more what are the ST doing?

What do they do?  The questions been asked but they never answer.

What do they want my tenner for?

If I ask someone for money I let them know what services they are receiving.

What services are they providing and how have they spent the hundreds of thousands people have already paid out.

Why do they refuse to answer this?

They answer all of that on their website.

Thats an awful lot of writing without saying that they've actually done anything.  The ACV is a load of bollocks, it just gave them first dibs on the stadium, if they are scraching round for tenners its worthless.

I prefer to look here https://www.facebook.com/OfficialBWFCST where they show all the great work they're doing.

I'll save you scrolloing through, it doesnt mention anything they've done

Then don't join them. You still haven't said what it is you think they should be doing.

was the 4k development the year before, a one -off too ?

No idea. It depends whether they had to have the site re-configured for new Windows/iOS/android devices. Probably something like that. If the money was spent on something sinister I'm sure they'd find a better way to hide it. Falsifying accounts is a pretty big deal... You could always ask them?

Thanks for that Ziggy.

I've looked and the answer to where the money goes is there.  It's literally all spent on website and social media bills.

I have a website and social media.

I dont spend 10% of that and the turnover far excedes the ST.

I wonder how they found the IT company who deals with this for them.
