Reading this has made me feel sick. I’ve always stood by MC and JM, built this is true regarding the new stand, then I feel that I’ve been made a fool of. I’ve recently bought into the share scheme believing I was helping to finance the future of the club, this apparently underhanded business of the new stand is bordering on skulduggery, and if it turns out to be true, then I really will be re considering my loyalty to this club/management. I’m paying into the commit 6, and at this moment I’m convinced I should end my payments. Any money I pay regarding Trinity, I want it to go to Trinity, not some faceless Stadium Management set up. If the current management does not come clean on this issue in the very near future, then I will not be investing any more monies into the club, Gutted

Take no notice of the ball cocks talked by quite a few. We don't know if this is happening at all. It's idle speculation and pretty horrible stuff. Wait till you know the facts before you draw conclusions would be my advice

Oh before I forget. This £10M + asset has not been provided by those two. Each and everyone one of us that pay our local taxes to WMDC along with all other contributors in the LA ,have contributed to deliver that.
Anyhow, bye bye MC and JM , bring on the new chapter

Ridiculous

That's actually quite embarrassing.

Yes I obviously jumped the gun on that one. I had my ear bent a little today by someone connected to the club, they assured me most of what I had read was inaccurate and some news was due. Hopefully, we can all look more positively for the eventual outcome.

Couldn't agree more on this statement..

I do fully understand what he did in 2013. Was things financially, though, how he summarised it several times over, in 2013, I very much doubt it. The figures changed significantly over a short period of time.

His manner hasn't endeared him to a lot of fans during his tenure, not just in recent times.

This is not an attack, this is a viewpoint.

I've said before on this board, no person is bigger than the club, and that included chairmen and CEO's

Thank you for saving us, but please move on now, and let us turn to the next chapter.

Re: Matthew Ellis Takeover : Wed May 24, 2023 9:09 pm  

I don’t think every decision MC has made has been beneficial to the club but neither do I think he’s the total bad guy he’s being made out to be. I note that JM has also been dragged into things from hero to zero in record time.
I think those making currently unfounded allegations should keep their gobs shut until the real facts come out.

You’re right about Minards. I wondered what he’s done to be dragged into it.

How long before the potential new owners get I wonder.

But this is the crux of it for me.

Carter has a manner that some don't like.
Personally I don't want a glad hander. I want someone who can make tough decisions and take the hit if they go wrong even if those affected don't like it.

He's had to be unpopular to get things done and I'm glad he did. Clearly some have a little vendetta going and waited for the day when the team wasn't doing well to pile on.
Many posting so gleefully now were nowhere to be seen when it was going OK. Its just the way some people are.

Minards on the other hand is someone we shouldn't lose from the club. If I was the new guy, I'd keep some of the people who work at the club at least through transition.

Now i'm no particular fan of Carter & co at all and will be glad to see the back of them but they have done some good things along the way. I am interested though, exactly what have you done to save the club?
