To be fair 888 is a fairly healthy response number. We have an average home support of what, around just under 5k? I wonder what the total support base is including people such as myself who can’t make games but watch Ifollow etc? To be honest whilst passions run high on here, I assumed we were some sub-culture in an internet backwater and the wider support base wasn’t that arsed? I personally think that level of interaction shows some green shoots of potential? Not that I am any sort of marketing expert or anything?
The Trust have made an effort to reach out, perhaps the drafting could have been improved, but it’s a start. I do feel a bit sorry for the Trust, they are pushed for more engagement and when they do they get a bit of a kicking? Need to be a bit careful, a more cynical observer may claim it was deliberately clumsy to invite criticism and then create a justification for not continuing with the engagement process? I’m sure that’s not the case, but it shows how things can be twisted to suit any agenda if you are so inclined. I would encourage the Trust to continue and expand on what they have done. Perhaps with a little more considered drafting and a little less confrontation collectively we may start to move forward. Whatever your thoughts on all this, for the good of the club in the long term Trust has to succeed as a representative body.
Finally I myself would like to thank Simon (GPC) for his efforts so far. After all, he is new to the role, is on a massive learning curve and has thrown himself right into the firing line from the get go, so pretty admirable as far as I am concerned. Perhaps all this discussion may just lead to something positive?
