BW Supporters Trust

Where fellow sufferers gather to share the pain, longing and unrequited transfer requests that make being a Wanderer what it is...

Sorry for being a cynical bastard. And even you, Worthy, are capable of multitasking on more than one worry :wink:
So, I shall proceed. I have no expectation of answers as the OP and his merry men have fxcked off, but a few questions:
This being a Supporter's Trust, what qualifies Richard Hurst as a supporter?
If he tried to buy tickets for the Leeds game through the official site would he qualify?
Is he an ST holder?
Has he ever gone to an away match?
Has he ever attended a BW match at all?
And, if the answer to any of those is yes, if the caveats "not as a guest in the director's box" or "not on business expenses" ere applied what is the answer then?
That's not a leopard!

^ I ask those just to see what qualifies as a supporter in this trust.
I'd also ask the question "of the 300+ people who expressed an interest in taking part in the steering committee, how is their selection process going?".
And, "Was Richard Hurst the only one of the 5,000 'members' who was asked about the role, or were others, more ordinary members, reluctant to step up to the plate, or wasn't anybody else, in fact, even approached?"

^ and, excuse me I haven't finished ranting yet, if the answer is basically that it doesn't matter about his level of supportership just so long as he's qualified, then that leads me onto my world of pain regarding charities where heroes who risk their lives on a voluntary basis are headed by CEOs on £100,000. Fxck that as a model.
How many of the 5,000 £10 notes that will come flooding in from the unqualified unskillsetted members will suddenly find themselves nestling in a pocket close to Richard Hurst's bollocks? ( or his officially sanctioned successor)?

^^ wouldn't it be up to the trust members to determine how much went where?

Probably not. Probably up to the Trust's board. A board probably composed of officially sanctioned nominees. Probably officially sanctioned by unelected selected people with the correct skillset. Call me a cynic. I am.

Yeah, he's said he doesn't want much involvement going forward. As I say, we're putting the cart before the horse here (or indeed Descartes before... never mind) as the future ownership of the club, indeed its very existence, have yet to be decided. Bit pointless having a steering group for a defunct entity. With or without a bent chairman.

I've been trying to find anywhere, on their official website and unofficial website and getting friends who do that faceboking and twatteration to search, in order to find any minutes that the interim steering committee of the interim steering group had when they had an interim board meeting that appointed their interim chairman. Not a fxcking interim sausage anywhere in interim virtuality. I asked the interim soviet via an interim question on their website whether they could post me a xeroxed copy of any interim handwritten minutes, but it got deleted, no doubt by an interim moderator within their interim Cheka. Up the interim workers!

At the point in time they want to take hold of my tenner, I'll have a look-see where they've got to. Until then, I don't care what the fck they do. They're trying to shape something, when they have, it'll go to some sort of vote, after which my tenner will either be with them or remain with me. Why don't you offer your services to help them - sounds like they need someone to take the minutes - BWFC Supporters Trust Secretary? :-)

But I have... Me and three hundred others... that's the entire fxcking point! I thought it was for the fans by the fans (where've I seen that before?) and yet so far one 'expression of interest' later and at least ten unanswered questions through various media channels, one deleted post on their Q&A, and no sign of any engagement with the supporters they are lining up, how do expect me to volunteer? I could always drop my pants on the town hall steps with the message COME AND GET ME tattooed on my arse cheeks I suppose...
