vibrating feet frequency A structural engineering term? :102: :102: :102: :102:

The Foxes Trust reported his reply to a similar question in this article. On that occasion he said that the unit of measuremant was the dynamic frequency, so it's obviously changed its name. Either that or he makes it up as he goes along.

What is even more worrying is that he said tonight that he had been doing "a bit of work" on the subject. He must have a poor concentration span, not to mention his poor memory. Either that or he makes it up as he goes along. :icon_conf :icon_conf :icon_conf

Andrew Taylor, in answer to part of a question I asked, said he has checked with the club's solicitors and they have told him that this is an urban myth - he says there is nothing in the club's aericles which restricts the size of an individual's holding in the club.

So, either he doesn't know what he's talking about or the FT doesn't.

Our interpretation of what he said is:

If a multi millionaire turned up with swags of cash, the articles of association do not stop the investment (on the basis that 75% of the shareholders approve a change to the articles).

It is restricted in the current articles, but the shareholders have it within the powers to change it.

You obviously didn't listen to the programme if that's what you think.
Why not try supporting people who are doing their bit for the club instead of constantly criticising. I've already deleted one of your posts tonight because of the abusive nature.

Let me get this straight. The rules (articles) don't stop investment on the basis that they can be changed. Is that what you just said? Answer: Yes, it is because I've just quoted you.

What kind of twisted logic is that? Of course the rules stop investment otherwise they wouldn't have to be changed! I really despair at times!!

The question was asked: "It's no secret that at the time of administration the new club was set up in such a way that no single person could own more than about 5% of the club. Why is that such a good idea?"

Andrew Taylor replied: "Actually, I think that has become a bit of an urban mythabout the club, having spoken to our lawyers about this, it's not built into the articles."

I don't see how that statement can be open to any kind of interpretation. It is urban myth - it is not in the articles. That is what he said - what else could it possibly mean?

The FT says it is in the articles: Andrew Taylor, having spoken to the lawyers about it says it isn't in the articles. As it happens, I do believe the Trust on this one. Andrew Taylor, as in many other parts of the interview, was making it up as he went along.

Question after question was fudged or ignored. I'm surprised that the FT should seem to be defending his performance.

Are you suggesting that the FT should hold some kind of glorified position where it can remain free from criticism?

No, but the criticism of the trust in this instance seems to be that they are asking questions on radio programmes, and posting on internet forums. If they didn't do this kind of thing they'd get accused of being aloof and not doing anything.

I agree that the FT should be afforded the privilege of using this and other boards with the same freedom as individual fans. I do object however when the FT takes up valuable time on a call-in to ask questions that it has already asked and had answered - not only asked and answered but already published such on its own website.

The Trust has ample opportunity to communicate with Andrew Taylor; the fan in the street has very few and should not be thwarted by the FT which was simply repeating itself.

I'm assuming the trust wasn't asking questions because they didn't know the answer. The trust was asking questions so that the fans listening in could hear the answer. Many of those people listening would be trust members who wouldn't have seen the answers on the trust website. Many would not be trust members, but would also be interested in hearing the answers.

They're criticised for not communicating with fans, then when they try to use a method that will get across to more fans they're criticised for that!

Please read my answer in another thread.

I haven't read the rest of the thread but i imagine he means resonant frequency. ;)
