Tom Fox's meeting with Supporters

[Jon Crofts]

I wouldn't worry. If anything interesting is revealed there will be a queue of GM and AVST members lining up to tell us.

Not that there will be. With relegation a probability I'm sure Fox will be adopting a bunker mentality.

Probability?  Sounds far too optimistic.

Because that is what GM's is for here and for AVST members with my other hat on.

I'm a former member of both. I suppose an update for such a person is out of the question? It's not like current members of both get the info twice.

Every time there's a meeting like this we get the same "I demand to be told" statements. There is no official them and us-ism on here. If you donate to the site you get access to another forum and if a member wants to divulge something in there that they don't want to say in public I'm fine with that but I wouldn't ask them to do anything one way or the other. If the Trust want to say anything to their members or nothing at all it's up to their board to decide.

There is a new Chairman in January plus an additional board member.

Any truth in the rumour it's Gerald Ratner?

Finally! It's about time somebody was tasked with rearranging those bloody deckchairs.

ICEBERGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG

Any word of a transfer budget? I'd like to know who we're going to sign but that's a little optomistic.

So two new people at board level. As long as we're spending money sensibly...

What would be gained from giving anybody that information?

[evalast1910]

Fox suggested Garde would have £20-30m in Jan; if he wanted to spend it.

The same as telling the supporters something like, oh, I dunno...:

Fabian Delph has signed a new contract

_{(with a insanely cheap buyout clause)}

Interesting if true.

Good a question like that was asked as Lerner did say in that rare Times interview just before the cup final he would appoint someone else as Chairman so guess that was asked.

Still bitter about that I see.

That's interesting, but considering how much TV money is available just for staying in the division you'd think it'd be more than that.

It was hardly a demand though, was it?

Why mention it then?

Aren't you? As a supporter aren't you bitter that we were deceived?

It was a simple question.

Why imply it was a demand when it wasn't?
