Season Tickets For This Year

[Paplane]

I'm a member of the Supporters Trust. I pay 10 quid or something a year for the privilege. They send me regular e-mails and invites to the meetings. I joined when they set up, in response to the way the club was being harmed back then by Fawaz. If I've joined Tricky then it should be easy for you to also.

I've got to say my enthusiasm of them is dwindling. Last year they put out their 'lets stop singing tits fanny Forest' request, which I thought was modern day woke nonsense. Since then they claim to have had regular meetings with the club but as a fan base we still don't know whats happening with the redevelopment, or had any other form of communication re the long term strategy for the club.  Did they not feel they needed to press the club on those matters? Surely it's what a supporters trust is there to do?

They have noble aims, things like improved disabled facilities etc, but to be honest, I think it'd be better if a bit more of the real fan base were represented - the fans who go to the games, have a few drinks, enjoy the matchday experience with their mates etc., rather than fans who want to change the world.

Thank you for your honest response Pap. I didn't even know they were an exclusive group that you had to pay for! Would I really want to be associated with a group that react to a minority (one woman complaining about the tits, fanny forest song) than the views of the majority? Not really. I would support a group conveying the concerns and problems all fans face with the club. So at least we now know they communicate with their members, which I suppose is something. But were they not set up to represent the fans (as in all of us?) In which case, they are failing miserably. 

I agree fully with your final paragraph mate. Is that not what a fans group should be made up from? A complete cross section of fans from the A Block and Lower Bridgford to the Main Stand, Upper Trent End and Cloughie Stands?

I think we're of the same mind Tricky. Join up, put yourself up for election to the board. I'll vote for you.  :D
