Pitch-forks and flaming torches it is then!
What crap. What legitimacy do you think the SCG has if it's against the majority of fans?
The chairman should be grovelling to us for forgiveness, not the other way around.
Oh, you chose to put yourself up as representative of all fans and then decided to go against their wishes and now you are unhappy that people might make you feel "intimidated"? Well tough shit. Next time don't claim to represent us, or if you do actually try and represent all fans.
This lot want the benefits of being gold star super fans, but none of the drawbacks that come from being someone's representative.
If you're not willing to represent the views of the fans, don't be part of a consultation group.
I remember a lot of my teachers just used to shout you down.
You remember that far back ?
As if it were yesterday. I remember bowling out one of my teachers in cricket once. He came up to me smacked me round the head and said "stupid boy, that was a no ball". Great memories....

Why so confrontational? Aren't you compounding the problem by turning up outside and potentially increasing the animosity between fans? Do you not think that might intimidate some members of the group? Please don't fall into the same trap and start picking the wrong fight.
Why not try and contact the chairman of the group and see if you can attend the meeting and share your views constructively - representing this forum and its members?
I
That said, I feel that it is Jonathan Strange, Peter Ward & those who supported the motion to shackle the Trust who have actually taken the 'confrontational' position here and clearly they are not representing the fans but rather backing Sisu and Club Directors against the predominant supporters group. If they maintain that stance, they should expect an angry response.
Reading it yesterday, wasn't it a unanimous vote? Including the Trust members who were there?
If the Trust are such a force for democracy why were its members not consulted on the restructuring when Steve Brown took over as chair? Why was this restructuring necessary? Why have they voted to make membership free this year? Surely this is the time of greatest need to maximise the fighting fund, or are they worried hardly anyone would renew lessening their authority? Why was none of the fighting fund made available to provide banners for those going to Sixfields, as requested?

My understanding is that Jan and Moz abstained which would be standard committee practice on a vote where you have a personal interest.
Proposed the following motion:
-
Continued inclusion of the SBT within the SCG should be contingent on three specific actions
:
-
1.An unreserved and public apology to the SCG, individually and collectively, for the recentcomments made by the SBT
2.A retraction of the comments and the Sandra Garlick correspondence from the SBT website
3.A statement to be placed on the SBT website acknowledging positively the SCG’s structure andTerms of Reference, and the SBT’s commitment to embrace them
The proposal was seconded by KH, a vote was taken on each measure, and the proposal was carried
unanimously without objection.
Argh! Help me out here, guys! I'm losing track of which group/s or individual/s we're meant to be directing all our angst at this week!!!
This week we love Simon Gilbert, the Trust, CCC, Sir Peter and Michael Orton.
We hate Nicki, Sisu, Fisher, GMK, Sandra and the SCG.
Pressley is currently mostly loved but there are some waverers. Will keep you updated.
Thank you! Much appreciated!!!
How though? I have been a member for a couple of years but have never been asked to vote or asked what I think?
(I have spoken to Steve directly who is a good bloke and understands most points I think but I meant in an official Trust capacity)
Why have they voted to make membership free this year?
Not sure why you haven't got them, but SBT have sent emails to vote on issues several times.
Most recently about seeking representation on the stadium forum.
Have you unsubscribed from their emails?
Can we. How? I don't even get the emails any longer.
Seems that you and Nick are both struggling with emails from the Trust.
Last one I got was 15th March.
It ended...
This group meets on Thursday 20[SUP]th[/SUP] March and representatives of the Sky Blue Trust will be in attendance. If you have any matters you wish them to bring up on your behalf at the meeting please e-mail them to theskybluetrust@outlook.com
Can't remember the last time anyone from the SCG was in contact with me, even though I'm on the club's email list.
Have they? They still took my quid off me last week.
Yep same, never get trust emails anymore, I get Kcic ones frequently though.Yeah, I only get KCiC ones. I haven't had an SBT email for months.

Trust e-mails are sent out several times a month (I know as I send them out!) One actually went out just an hour or so ago. If anyone hasn't received one for a while PM me your e-mail address or email the Trust at theskybluetrust@outlook.com and I will update the database so as to ensure you are kept informed

From the last minutes:
"Membership
The Board considered Roger’s paper on this. It was agreed that:
1. A membership fee of £0 be charged for the year 2014/15."
Maybe you've set up a direct debit?
PayPal. Ah, they can have this year's £1 on me.
Oh, another SCG thread?
Do they represent 90% of city fans?
