Redevelopment Closer Than Ever?

You are inbetween a rock and a hard place Barton.
You only invite people because the venue is too small, but only hire a small venue because not many people turn up.

This is the last time I'll write this it's a BOARD MEETING, the Trust have held board meetings for the last 27 years. These are for board members, we have 14 board members if everyone can make it, so that's the size room we have, I'm struggling that people find this hard to understand.

[tcobb]

Sorry, misunderstood the bit where you said " INVITED TRUST MEMBERS " that led me to believe it can be more than the TRUST BOARD

Is this the one that was due last September? I really hope that it was worth the wait.

So, there's a lot to take in there, but does that mean that the council has lost its claim against the Cardozas?

No, it's going to be in room 606.

Off you go, Beds.

Rauldinho are you able to tell us anything positive that have come from these meetings?

Supporters want lots of different things but don't expect many asked for relegation, 4 managers, no development or little improvements at sixfields, a transfer policy that fails time and time again, no progress or thoughts of better training facilities, improved supporters facilities (for home and away fans) etc etc

'better training facilities' - thats a bit rich! Reports I have heard that the training facilities are first class! A Milton Keynes fan recently told me that the facilities at their end were fine, decent refreshments available. Toilets easily available and stewards were friendly and helpful. Who should I believe ?
Have you sampled the delights of Stanley, Oldham,Pompey and Luton yet as for example at Luton and Portsmouth you  cannot get to the refreshments without difficulty let alone the toilets. Add Cambridge and FGR to the list.

I've not been to one unfortunately, so I cannot comment if there has been any success from things mentioned during them. I'm guessing you have and are not happy with the results?

It seems a better audience to be talking to about a lot of the concerns people have on here, especially those concerning redevelopment, an opportunity to put these things directly to the club (which is an issue people also complain about).

How refreshing it will be to hear the wishes of the clubs supporters as to how they want to see our club move forward over being told the original little 1994 Sixfields is ok for league one, with the council blamed for the continuing  3.5 year delays stopping them spending the closely gaurded  ring fenced £4M.

Well done to all who organising this really important land mark meeting.
Get it well advertised with live streaming on Facebook to reach as many supporters as possible to fully gauge oppinion.

That was the old closed shop secretive trust society meetings that thankfully are a thing of the past.
Its an open shop now, inviting 10s of thousands of Northamptonians to join them in leading the football club kicking and screaming into the 21st century.

So you would prefer Sixfields to Fratton Park? No, didn't think so!

I have no idea what your going on about

As far as I know they had a couple in 2016 and, maybe another after that, the attendances after the first two were down to less than 20, none were held in 2018 to my knowledge. It's such an obvious move to try and under mind the Trust, I think its NTFC clutching at straws

The end 'summary' appears to be weighted against NBC but not conclusive! Should be interesting verdict.
