Though the trust only represents a couple of hundred people or so
QuoteThough the trust only represents a couple of hundred people or soDoes it? is it true that some didn't renew their membership this time round and were ceremoniously dumped?
Quote from: "Chris Smith"Where has anyone claimed to "speak on behalf of all Villa supporters". The Trust having a view that something is not, in their opinion, in the interests of supporters is not the same as being a Villa Fans Chief.Which is something that Jon Fear has never referred to himself as. Although to follow the reasoning given for the Trust's statement, it could be argued that he's the "chief" of the fans he represents.

Yes. They didn't renew and were - shock! horror!! - no longer members. Oh, the outrage!!!
What sort of ceremony do you imagine was involved?
I know that Risso, but as I posted 80 pages back I don't think enough has been done to correct that view and it detracts from their credibility in my eyes. If they get misrepresented once then that's fair enough, but to allow it to keep happening leaves them open to the criticism that will inevitably follow.

I only ever remember seeing the term "Fans' Chief" in one piece, and read on another site that Jon was embarrassed by it.
