For me....no, its not a fair statement!! As previously posted the fact is that the new owners, led by KT did not want supporter representation on the Board, it was a deal breaker. Are you seriously suggesting that the Trust should and possibly could have forced the club under by sticking to a point of principle?

Andy Clarke was the last holder of the position of Director as part of the old setup under Cardoza, but he resigned around two months before the takeover was completed due to his part in the signing of certain drawdown documents between the Council and the then owners. An interim Director was identified but I don't believe was ever appointed as by that time the crisis had erupted and takeover talks were in progress.
Kelvin Thomas made it a condition of the takeover partly based on the fact that the Trust director had done what he had done so was wary of the Trust's role in the club pre-takeover.

The Trust Board at the time did not want to give up that place but based upon the deal that was on the table, the "promises" that were being made by the incoming owners they did what they believed was in the best interests of the club at the time and stepped aside (with another Trust brokered rescue deal also on the table) in favour of the deal presented by KT.

Now, fast forward six years and a hastily rushed through scheme to bring in a "fans director" was announced. The Trust were not explicitly given the chance to regain a place as the place that was on offer was for an "independent individual", so that chance was as open to the Trust as it was to any member of Joe Public. If a Trust Director had decided to stand and apply for said position there is no doubt at all that they would have had to resign from the Trust board, therefore the position on the Clubs Board was NEVER going to be filled by "The Trust"

Now, if KT had come along to the Trust and offered that place back in its original guise and the Trust had declined you could rightfully claim what you are claiming, but that isn't and wasn't the case.

Is that difficult to understand??

So in keeping with Rogers new rule. Is that a post from a Trust board member. Or as a standard contributor to this site…

BTW. Your version of events is a lot more simplistic than what actually happened. But I have lot of time for the people involved at that time. So I’ll leave that where it is.
