Tom Fox's meeting with Supporters

[Chris Harte]

I'm sure I was told it was going in GMs only. Even got accused of "demanding" to know what happened. Then that Everlast poster started posting stuff, although I was initially sceptical as to the accuracy.

If it had not been for them that information would never have appeared in here, is my guess.

Which is wrong, but thanks for your contribution.

Is it? Re-read page one of this thread then.

I have done, and nowhere does anyone say that anything was or was not going to be said anywhere. We've already had one pointless diversion off the subject on this thread and we don't need another.

[Chris Harte]

I'm clearly told that it is what GMs is for on page one.

Anyway, I'll let others make their own minds up and say no more.

You do just that.

I don't understand, Chris, didn't you go off to TBAR or elsewhere with the other dissatisfied former posters a while back?

That's absolutely your right to do so, and we all have our preferences, but it strikes me you've been back posting here a few weeks and there's a lot of moaning about the way things are done in that time.

I'm absolutely prepared to accept I've misunderstood the historicals involved in this, so I apologise if I'm wrong, but maybe if you've gone away because you didn't like the way things are done, then come back and spent a fair amount of time telling people you don't like the way things are done, you're really not going to get much out of this place?

[Chris Harte]

Well as you asked, I went off to TBAR. I then lost interest, in part due to certain characters, and so moved on elsewhere.

I've still posted here on occasion, but then last week I asked a question about the Fox meeting, only to be told I was making demands. Am I going to let that sit? It wasnt accurate and I said so.

Now Joe, who I'm grateful to for posting his version of events at the meeting, posts something that again doesn't seem accurate. Given that I was making demands apparently simply for asking what happened at the meeting, his latest post is not as I remember it.

As for not getting anything out of the site, you couldn't be more wrong. I do enjoy off topic, the games area.

And with our club being where it finds itself, I'm going to moan about that. In fact, I'd say now is the perfect time to do so.

[pauliewalnuts]

I don't think you'll find anyone doubting your right to moan at the club given the current mess. In fact, I know you won't. That's not what I meant by complaining about "the way things are done", I meant "the way things are done here".

I'm glad you still get pleasure out of the site, though, it just seemed to me that you were spending quite a lot of time talking about the stuff you don't like, rather than the stuff you do.

It strikes me that if you wanted to look for a poster here who would be likely to post anything with any sort of agenda or knowingly misleading people, Joe would be right at the bottom of the list.

I'd have liked to have thought you'd remember that, though, from times past (including when you were a moderator here too, for that matter). I can confirm he hasn't undergone any character change while you were away, though.

Inaccurate how? It had never been my intention to post the details in GM only and other versions of the events from last week such as Stuart Griffin's on the AVST site are freely available in every sense.

For what it's worth, I thought there was little point in not giving the details as wide an audience as possible in part to forestall any rumours about what took place or accusations of secrecy. The club were open with the attendees, it was important to respect that frankness in relaying what was said to the Villa supporting world.

[Chris Harte]

Thank you for your response, again, Joe.

I shall refrain from commenting further and this let get back on topic, as requested by the editor.

[joe_c]

Thanks Chris. Appreciated

Now about this Investment Banker......

[Dante Lavelli]

Can't we just lock the thread?  If fox speaks again I'm sure there will be another, more timely thread.

[robbo1874]

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.
