(you had about 3 years to raise £100,000 to get on the board and didn't).
They should have asked me.

Redditch questions the relevance & the needs of big finance for big time football. Fans backed the money of Milan Mandaric's takeover and now we find ourselves in League One.
By contrast, Stockport County are a Trust ran & owned club and through a successful season just gone, also compete in League One next year.
The drop in trust membership should tell you that the trust is no longer relevant to the majority of fans, your key goal (getting a seat on the board) is no longer achieveable and you weren't exactly doing a great job of achieving it when it was (you had about 3 years to raise £100,000 to get on the board and didn't).
Or is it just so that the lazy fecking excuses for journalists at The Mockery & RL can have someone easily available to ring up for a quote about anything that goes on at the club?
The target set for a full board position was £500,000.
By raising the initial £100,000, we gained an Observer position at all LCFC board meetings, and title of that role underplays the contribution made, as we were asked for our opinions on many topics during the board meeting, including such items on whether the club should go over budget to sign a player.
We invested an additional £51,000 and in doing so, were only one of two shareholders who invested additional money from it's initial investment.
The "seat on the board" aim is still valid however, it maybe very unlikely while the club is owned by Milan Mandaric, but none of us know what future ownership will bring.
Also the government is looking at legislation relating to club ownership & one key proposal is that every club must have a fan representative on it's board.

Why doesn't this govt just mind it's own f*cking business now and again?
You damn fool - what the hell are you doing giving away sensitive information like that for?!When they tell us their membership number perhaps they won't.
Anyway if there's a board rep up for the biggest supporters club I think the TBLCSC with it's 6 members could be in with a shout.
How many more times? Just because you wear a dress at weekends, it doesn't mean you are a woman. :icon_rollYou damn fool - what the hell are you doing giving away sensitive information like that for?!
Letting the Trust know the TBLCSC only has six blokes in it could prove fatal...at least they don't know how many woman belong.

The first time someone calls you a horse you punch him on the nose, the second time someone calls you a horse you call him a jerk but the third time someone calls you a horse, well then perhaps it's time to go shopping for a saddle.
Are you still in the market for that ponytail butt-plug?
