Agreed. It was indeed 23 minutes of waffle from KT which could meaningfully have been said in 60 seconds. What I find most bizarre is not his dissatisfaction with the Trust but the levels that ther recent release seems to have irked him. He who protests most?
Someone keeps poking you, you're gonna poke back at some point. The Trust barely even speak for themselves?

Just listened to the KT tirade re the East Stand. There really is a lot of hot air and it ain't coming from a dyson. He seems rattled. I cannot see this ending well.

Bit like saying that the last Northampton Town chairman didn't deal with the redev well, why should we believe that this one will? Different times, different people.

He came over reasonably well - you need to loosen up on KT a bit. He and KC appeared to have managed the Club quite well the last few months.

I’m inclined to agree When the time came for a whistleblower to lift the lid on what was happening last time it was left to someone not on the board to do the deed.... What exactly were the trust doing?? It was their job to inform the members and fans and they chose not too instead leaving it to someone else. They were not fit for purpose then and I’d imagine it’s the same people who failed the fanbase then that are still in charge and making a racket now.... Apologise for the way you let the fanbase down last time before you go on your next crusade... As far as I know there was never an apology from the board for their part in things and they’d have had my respect if they’d stood up and admitted mistakes were made on their watch. (Amended to correct the quote in/out box... )

Didn't the Trusts member on the board of NTFC sign some documents at the time when requested by Cardoza, drawing down further tranches of the money without the previous work having been done?

That’s one for the trust to answer..... One things for sure they didn’t relay anything to the paying members and just got on with it if so..... That’s not how you run things in my opinion You are paid by supporters to inform them of things..... Anything like that should have gone to the members for consultation and a vote.... That’s called democracy.

You might get an answer on them being paid

Apologies tel To reiterate I am aware the trust board are (as far as I know unpaid) The supporters however have to pay to join the trust and imo it is the trusts job to keep members informed and the signing off of legal documents should not take place until 1) the membership has had the chance to vote 2) legal advice has been taken by the trust.
That’s my take on it.

NTFC Supporters Trust and Fan Ownership The NTFC Supporters Trust would like to make it 100% clear that we have no “agenda” on fan ownership and anyone who thinks or says that we have simply does not understand our policy and objectives. We state every month on the Trust website that our ongoing research into fan ownership is a contingency in case the club needs rescuing again in the future, or is put up for sale. This could be a hybrid ownership scheme as there is more than one model across Europe. Since we made a statement about a potential land development deal between NBC and NTFC there have been further comments that we have an "agenda" regarding fan ownership. Those claiming that we have such an agenda have misunderstood what is being communicated. We are not the only supporters' organisation. in the country looking at alternative ways to run their club and we feel it is the very least any committed supporters' group should be doing whilst financial instability is common in lower league football.
We stand by our last statement based on what we learned from our freedom of information request to the Borough Council about the East Stand and surrounding land at Sixfields.

So where are we now in this regard?

Blimey, the stock and credibility of The Hotel End forum has just been elevated somewhat? I thought the general perspective was that it was full of vacuous imbeciles (excluding myself obviously) communicating with each other in an irrelevant digital backwater and was to be ignored?

Can someone smarter than me locate in the Trust accounts where the loan to the football club is? Just been trying to have a look for it so I can question the club.

What are you going to question the club on? I'm pretty sure KT was not in charge when the money was handed over. I'd also be surprised if there is anything to prove it even a loan. Now we have NTFC Trust responding to SUPPORTERS on here. And in the spirit of transparency that the Trust board are putting the emphasis on. Perhaps they could enlighten us about that transaction. Was it a declared loan. How does it appear in the Trust accounts. Was there a minuted Trust board vote on it.. ??
