Well done to both candidates. I wish them the best.

Not surprised that the Trust fanboys are on the critical march again. These are the very same trolls who constantly state that if you want to change something you should join and do it from within. Apparently not then, unless it’s on their side  Roll Eyes Roll Eyes

I don’t know Dan, but I do know Tom. I’m surprised he never listed his exquisite volley at St George’s park in his submission. Probably the finest goal I ever witnessed.. Jammy fcuker 😀😀
FFS! 😁

Dan...orchestra conductor, lover of whisky, passionate to the core. Only the owner of Watford FC would go through more managers per season!

Tom...well having to be in the same carriage as utter c**t Villa fans on the way back from Manchester a week or so ago might toughen resolve!

I’m not taking the **** but I’m amazed you didn’t put yourself forward.
I wouldn't have the spare time. Also, I'm not sure I currently care enough Undecided

Has the Trust put someone forward?
It'll be great to see the views from inside and outside the Trust for a balanced competition.
I bet there's a real anticipation of getting that seat at long last to represent the fans.....
Will this be announced later?
P.S Im delighted for the two non trust fans who've put themselves fwd.
Both great lads who I wish all the best to, whoever  or whatever they come up against in their new role.

Random et al….
Genuinely shocked that after all that’s gone on there’s nobody from the Trust standing…. Beds Cobbler included.
All the ideas and statements as to what needs to be done and then nobody wants to represent the fans.
The fans voice will now be Tom or Dan in my view.

OK, I will bite.

LOL so suddenly Tom or Dan will be representing the fans on the back of sending a one page document yet the Trust, who have helped save the club twice in their 30 years don't.

As the Trust stated, KT did not want the Trust involved, as he hasn't from day 1, so why would the Trust board put themselves in that position.

Good Luck guys All the best

I'm genuinely astounded the Trust haven't put someone forward.

Well done to Dan and Tom for putting themselves up for it.

Whoever wins I hope you make a success of it and drive some change and unity somehow.

i think being a club employee is certainly a compromising position.
It is unlikely you will speak out against your employers however strong you are .
Good luck to both lads though

Isn't Tom a volunteer, not an employee?

Assume he would have to relinquish his volunteer position?

As the club made a massive point of it being an independent fan he would have to.

Even then I still think he is compromised.

No one can really claim to represent the fans.Whoever is elected will only represent themselves and the people who's view they agree with, or influenced by.

He clearly states he wouldn't.

I'm surprised there wasn't more candidates but it wasn't advertised very well.

I hope either successful candidate steer clear of online criticism and rock throwing.
It's a responsible position to volunteer for and whoever they represent/don't represent, they will have the most direct line into the club, regardless of how much influence it ultimately carries.

I do think people are getting a bit carried away with all of this.

It will be a requirement for all clubs to have a supporter promoted person on the board in the near future. Some already have this. They are just doing what is expected of them. As the police would say... "Move on, there's nothing see here".

It’s a box ticking exercise, nothing more.
Surely the amount of effort and time put into this speaks volumes.

It's a bit like the old adage about voting mate. "If it changed anything, they wouldn't't let us do it".

I think you'll find KT said anyone could stand, the Trust has chosen not to.
Therefore, the fans are now represented by the winner of this vote.
As I said.... I'm shocked.
