I am not sure I agree that the trust are the voice of the fans, I know a lot of fans who will not have anything to do with them. I guess there is still some guilt by association where they were on board with Cardoza and didn't highlight any problems until it had come from various other sources. I am not saying there isn't a role for the trust I just wonder how many fans see the trust as their voice. Many would probably say that one of various facebook groups are their voice.
I cannot understand this at all. Why would fans not have anything to do with them? They are the central platform for fans of the club. Anybody can join and anybody can get involved and therefore change what they do if they want. If they are seriously anti-Trust then there is more to it. Are these 'Facebook Groups' elected? Are they accountable? Are they transparent? From what I have seen of Facebook they are almost certainly self-serving.
