[Real Sharapova]

But there are sufficient to warrant BGs, or anyone else's, posts about their questionable actions.

He was just responding to the ridiculous post from Fox Fan

Fair do's, but represents his views, not over 50% of the members of this forum.

And do you know that for sure?

He represents the views of a significant number on here, and elsewhere, who are sick to the back teeth of an organisation so hell-bent on sucking up to the board and maintaining the self intrerests of those at the top

Not to mention their arrogant and dismissive posting on this, and other, boards

 

[Melton Fox]

Anybody fancy setting a poll up. FT, for or against?

If you check back, you will find that BG never at any time claimed to represent the views of over 50% of this forum. The only thing he claimed to be in the majority about is in his distrust of the FT and he was specific in refering to what he had read on other sites and clearly talking about supporters in general and not just members of this forum. I would not be surprised to hear that amongst people who have an *active* view on the trustworthyness of the FT, over 50% question their motives.

"I am not alone in my distrust of the FT, in fact I know I am in the majority".

Seems pretty unequivocal to me.

Bang on guys , sorry RS

The Foxes Trust has tried to wage an underground anti MM feeling from day one by giving out snippets of info (all negative). They are only interested in protecting their own position IMO. They dont represent me or my feelings in any way. They are not IMO an organisation that represents the fans, they are simply an extension of the club.

Sorry FT, looks like you'll be out on your ears soon

What on earth are you talking about

Boc actually said "The only thing he claimed to be in the majority about is in his distrust of the FT..."

There actions throughout have been little short of disgraceful. It has been a concerted campaign against Mandaric, IMO

They may have their private reservations about the MM deal, but you can bet your bottom dollar that the FT membership do not feel the same

Utterly comtemptable

100% agree. Nothing short of disgraceful.

I concur, but will add conceited to the mix as well.

.and I said that it was presumptuous to say that. It is a stand alone statement, I repeat " I am not alone in my mistrust of the FT, in fact I know I am in the majority". You can spin it as much as you like, read that sentance and it can only mean one thing.

For or against what, though?

You would need a lot of questions, as the criticisms from different people vary from slight concerns over individual issues to visceral hatred.

They seem to include various permutations of the following

a. Their actions

Posting on here
Not posting on here instantly when someone demands it
Giving their members information
Not giving their members information
Not giving the information they give to members to everyone else
Consulting their members
Not consulting their members
Wanting to make informed decisions
Charging a membership fee
Being slow in updating their web site
Being democratic

b. Several unsubstantiated "facts" / rumours / accusations, such as

Wanting to sell the club to the tigers
Trying to scupper the Mandaric bid
Leaking confidential information to the press
Not leaking confidential information to this board
Having a seat on the board
Being the "influential shareholder"

c. generalisations such as

Questionable Actions
Unscrupulous
Self interest

d. Coming shortly, no doubt:

Burning babies
Starting the Iraq war

and even

having F****t season tickets


It's a good job they exist, otherwise someone else would have to be the scapegoat.



Lighten up folks!

That hes probably correct?

Well I'm a member, so that is minus one. I assume Homey is not a member, so I win!

Yes.

Then I completely fail to see your logic. Your suggestion that BG claimed that his views represented more than 50% of this forum is totally fallacious.

Source?

:icon_roll FFS, you have to back up every statement on here with facts and figures before you are allowed to post

Messageboards
Callers/interviews on Radio Leicester
Letters/quotes in the Mercury
Private conversations with every Leicester supporter I know

All in support of Mandaric

Apologies, but I haven't had time to commission a comprehensive MORI poll, but I will work on it just for you

The Trust has asked members opinion though on ownership and ground sharing via e-mail, so if what you are saying is true, I think they will now know what the Trust members think.

I personally replied I did not mind if MM owned the club, and that I am totally opposed to the groundshare even if it was the only way forward as I believe the T****s would use it as a 'Trojan Horse' move.
