Problem is shhmmee that the Board hasn't consulted its members for months. Half a dozen of us submitted proposals to the last open meeting and wanted a vote but were told there couldn't be a vote because it was only an informal meeting. One of the proposals, big screen v Bradford, was done but on the other 3 more important issues there hasn't been a word. Basics seem to have broken down like no minutes of meetings and the trust email address doesn't seem to work. There have always been those who knock the trust but when someone like nonleagueherewecome calls the trust 'pointless' there really is a problem.
Out of interest, was one of the proposals a day other than Monday evening?
Don't think it was mentioned tbh.

You're right Michael I was also at the meeting the big screen was taken on by I think it was jan and two others,the other sproposals if I remember no one was interested in they were put to the members and no one wanted to take them on.
Can't remember but had a word about it they were going to look into varying the days. To me it doesnt matter what day it is but I know that certain people do have problems on certain days. I know most of the Trust Board are going to MK or I think they are I will mention it again
What CJ tweeted from the meeting was "We will put together a group or two to look into the proposals put forward regarding KCIC" - so I'm really pleased one of the ideas was taken up but there's been no word on the other three. There were only 20-30 at the meeting so an email to members asking for help might have been worth a try, or an email to members consulting on which proposals such be prioritised might be a decent idea too
Good stuff, and cheers
Know it's not a big thing, but need to get rid of any excuses for the likes of me not to turn up
Remind me what the other ideas were I've forgotten
No thanks... Would rather skin myself then roll around in sea salt than help the trust

Just an idea, but would it be of interest to have a smaller open meeting on another day of the week for those unable to attend on a Monday?
Always keen to hear views and ideas.

I follow this site and was already aware of the discussions for a minute of clapping in support of the team on 35minutes !!!
It was originally 10 then changed by someone to 35 wonder why:thinking about:
You supported the trusts actions but didn't join? Perhaps if you and the others who supported the Trusts actions had joined then their voice would have been louder, but at the time you saved yourself a pound then give yourself a pat on the back and say what you're saying now:facepalm:I don't believe the trust represent enough fans now. When they were involved in protests they had an influx of members. At that time i supported the trusts actions even though i didn't join as a member.
As soon as they said that there aim was board representation and are now a non protest group i have found them a pointless entity !
I would be interested to know how many fans feel they have been hoodwinked into joining on the back of a protest ?

Your wrong Im just disappointed at the road the trust have now gone down.

What about some sort of online discussion Steve? It is ok saying come to the squirrel but it may be off putting for some people especially when some of it's "hardcore" members are arguing with other fans and slating them all the time. I just think it limits the input you might get to the same few if it is the same people at the meeting all the time.
I am more than happy to add a section on here for Trust Ideas / Discussions if needed.

Although I am more than happy to discuss issues, thoughts and questions I feel it would just become a section for silly comments and abuse. As you know I have had to put up with that in the past.
I just feel that by taking the time to meet in person it shows you have ideas to bring to the table.
Should anyone wish to contact me privately I will do my utmost to reply and answer questions or discuss ideas.

I was suggesting a smaller meeting over a drink, nothing heavy just a few members and a few supporters just like fans do every night of the week around the City.
It's was only an idea to try and hear from those who do not or cannot go to a meeting, am open to any suggestions.
Like I said if anyone wants to contact me I will reply if I can.
I will point out that we do get a very wide scope of fans at open meetings, the Squirrel may not be ideal but it is a nice venue.
We are looking at other places to hold meetings, although we will continue to use the Squirrel as our central meeting venue.
Any suggestions welcome.

What about streaming the meeting online also?
This is something we've looked into. I haven't manage to find a cost effective way of doing it. If anyone can help please get in touch.
For those that can't get to meetings I'm always on twitter before and during them. Feel free to tweet/DM me on there, PM me on here or email me joinercj@gmail.com for any comments or questions. Can't promise to answer them all at the meeting but I'll do my best to get back to you with an answer asap.
