Can't believe that someone agreed to the release of the document. Irrespective of the variance of what was actually discussed, that shows the behind the scenes youth football level of thinking to have produced and agreed that in the first place. It is the only hard copy document that those who attended and those who didn't have to refer to when the meeting is closed.
Someone can come on and defend or give their alternative view of the document claiming that it doesn't reflect the overall intention but unfortunately that was a real 'blighty'.
At the end of the day, the ability to raise and sustain the funding of the football club is still the main stopper regarding any 'fan ownership'. Until that is resolved with a fail-safe proposal, this will continue to remain a pipedream. I would love us to own our own club but until this happens, along with a reliable and credible management plan, I will vote to remain under the current or similar private ownership.
Was going to comment DC but you have saved me the trouble, that about hits the proverbial nail on the head. It was absolutely crucial that the attendees were motivated to engage in the process positively. Credibility regarding fan ownership was always going to be a challenge and that document was most unhelpful. At this point in time there are only 3 things that matter with regards to this whole process, how much, where from, and when? The answers to these questions will indicate everything including an ability to move forward, likely success or failure and would shape the entire business plan, if it ever gets that far. However you can relax about having to vote on remaining privately owned. If these questions remain unresolved there won’t be any choice in the matter.
