After Cardoza and the botched loan and everything that has followed I think it would just be good to see one thing...TRANSPARENCY.

Whether they are obliged to make it transparent or not, with everything that was royally f*cked up last time, I think the fans (and wider public) deserve some openness and honesty.
This stuff will ultimately reach the public domain, whether that is via accounts, FOI requests, financial transactions....with the assumption that it will all be totally above board. I'm not overly fussed with the moral rights and wrongs, that's all subjective. If we get a basic finished stand and KT and co. stand to pocket £20m then just show that.
This isn't just about the club, it's definitely about the council too who hardly fill anyone with confidence of how they handle matters.
If the Trust is the mechanism to push for this/block this/propose an alternative, then stop talking in riddles and comparing us to Plymouth.
Start a wider fan/press campaign or throw an olive branch to the club and sort it out.


Let's just see some numbers - what is in it for the council? What's in it for the club and what's in it for the owners personally.
I think too much focus is on trying to block it happening, or what the owners will do if they get laid some kind of golden egg, or what went on with the Chinese.


At the minute we've got some white elephant contaminated land, tied up in red tape and a ramshackle East stand. With the continued stalemate the owners could choose to strip the budgets right back. There is enough noise about us not having the right quality of players, it could be a lot, lot worse. TBH I am surprised they have stuck around so long, although I'm sure some will cite the promise of some multi-million pound deal.
If nothing changes we'll still be here in another 5 years.
