Great post Grange, thanks for providing your insight.
There are probably 2-3 issues that I have with the situation when I think about it.

1. The hypocrisy. The Trust critisise the club publicly in statements about their lack of transparency and hiding behind confidentiality and then do exactly the same themselves. I don't buy the 'KT scuppered the deal' line. I'm sure he did, why wouldn't he?! But if the deal was as good as the Trust claim then it should have held. They critisise the owners for building warehouses and lacking imagination, whilst partnering with a company who will build warehouses, albeit 50m further away from the stand.

2. The disdain they have for their fellow fans. Emotions have often got in the way on all sides and the conversation hasn't been as polite as it should be, but we are all passionate about this club. But anyone who questions their plans or their motives are instantly called into question, called KT lovers, told we don't understand the situation, essentially called stupid (not reading or understanding the council documents for example)

3. Lack or accountability and responsibility. The Trust have essentially admitted the reason they partnered with Cilldara was to force a seat back at the table. How did we get to a position where the Trust had to do that?! I know KT isn't the most welcoming but you can still have a professional relationship with someone if you cant have a personable one. I have never seen anyone from the Trust acknowledge their mistakes, this week is a great example. Rather than explain the situation like GPC did they came out swinging blaming everyone but themselves.

As much as the Trust board believe they have acted in the best interests for the club they are now so distant from the club and then fans that it is time for a change. It happens in all walks of life, boards of businesses, governments etc, one day its time for a change, and that time is now.
