Someone posted this on Twitter this morning....I don't know how he/she got hold of it but I had seen mention about this letter a few days ago.

https://twitter.com/ijg1979/status/1412328140844802049

That's quite damning, isn't it? Of course, it could be an elaborate hoax but it reads like a KT/DB statement.

This thread has the potential to overtake the redevelopment one.

I have never seen this club so divided. It's a complete shambles and an embarrassment.

Updated the link as the person replaced the original tweet as they had previously included a personal address on the letter

This is now getting to be a bit more than just handbags at dawn.

If anyone wants to know why things are "so divided" the clue is how this person got their hands on this letter.

I don't think things fans are more divided by the way, most couldn't care either way .I just think the owners want a land deal, the trust are being cautious after last time and some fans are unquestionably loyal to the owners despite everything that's gone on in the past.

Personally it leaves a bad taste in the mouth, all this constant sniping against the trust from club owners and employees. Constant reminders of how we were "saved". Apparently now the owners "saved" us when the 5usport deal fell through.

Here’s one for you, why don’t the club just come out and make a statement?
This isn’t going away so one statement would stop all this confusion and potentially false allegations.

OVER TO THE CLUB.

I'm sure you're right!
That comment was aimed at the post - I don't know anything about Manny personally (other than he's very rich  Grin)

Agree
I tell you what else, it will stop a lot of the bickering on here and we can get back to talking about players that won’t sign for us  Grin
Seriously this is the last thing KT needs to get the land deal done.

If the points made in the letter are true then that is pretty damning for the Trust if, as suggested they have been trying to get journalists to do an expose on the club without proof that goes way outside what I would expect from someone who has the best interests of the club at heart if they haven't got the proof!
I would also say that if what is written in the letter is false and the Trust haven't done this then our owners have serious questions to answer as this makes the trust out to be working to their own agenda and not in line with what it was set up for.
Can anyone from the Trust come out and state this is untrue?

I'm paraphrasing here, as the tweet has disappeared, but I think I remember when reading it that it said that this matter had been raised before to DB/KT and they had answered, verbally and in a minuted meeting.
If anyone has copied the text please correct this if wrong.

I mostly agree with that, however I would say that if it does turn out to be false, just because it appears to be on club headed stationery doesn't mean it was necessarily put out by the club - any monkey with Word and a sample of the club letterheads could knock something like that together.

Still, it's very easy for either the club or the Trust to confirm if it's genuine or not!

They don't have to. I actually respect them for not publishing that letter and clearly tried to deal with it privately via the Trust. They well and truly got it with both barrels.
The question is who tweeted it? It's either someone from the Trust or the club and I'm sure the conspiracy theorists can fill their boots.

The club clearly have a tread a little bit carefully but you can almost guarantee the majority of supporters will back them over the current Trust set up.

The full letter is still up and I am sure plenty of you will know the Twitterer. Mark Church also screen grabbed.
If it's not already it will be all over FB.

TBH the letter answers nothing it’s more hot air, posting it on Twitter is also not very helpful IMO.

It’s now all out war between the club and the Trust, it’s all very undignified and quite frankly embarrassing.

There’s never any smoke without fire, conversely the Trust need to make public all they know and in layman’s terms so fans can get there heads around it.

If I was KT and these were false accusations I would sue them.

Whilst I agree in principle and get the wider point you're making, he simply wouldn't do that

The trouble is you can’t have this sort of thing floating around if it’s not got any truth to it.
The reputation of KT and DB is paramount in what they do.
Just because they are a supporters Trust doesn’t give them license to pedal lies.
