Re: Trust..CCFC big row brewing

You have no idea of who i am, or what i do for charity. That’s got nothing to do with you,
You seem to appear in every thread on here spouting your nonsense. I stand by what i said. The majority of fans of all clubs just want to go to the game, then go home and get on with their lives till the next game.
If you pay to go to the cinema every week, it doesn’t give you the right to stick your nose into how the Cinema is run. Why don’t you naff off and catch a trout. 👍

Mr A Hole was not you Bill so chill out

Re: Trust..CCFC big row brewing

Oh bollocks to these cardiff city fans trying their best to promote ccfc in a positive way

In their spare time

Let's leave it to ccfc who when a multi racial painting of a cardiffian in a ccfc shirt appeared didn't want to be associated with it in case it caused ......reverse racism !

Down with the trust !

This club and a lot of its fans are a comedy act

As devil’s advocate, we all know the self important fans that have tried to work their way into the club for their own interests.

With issues with Sam in the past maybe that’s how it looks now

Erm, I hope you realise I was being ironic and agreeing with you

Re: Trust..CCFC big row brewing

How many members have they got out of a fan data base of around 200k ?

200,000 fans? Is it mushroom season already?

Re: Trust..CCFC big row brewing

How dare anyone other than the official supporters club have an opinion. Know your place.

The Supporters Club are only allowed to have the opinion they are told to have.

Partly the reason the Trust was set up in the first place.

Fair play, I haven’t heard the football club / cinema analogy in almost a decade. Who was it making that comparison back in 2012? Ah, yes, I remember….

Re: Trust..CCFC big row brewing

I attended the first Trust Meeting and became a member and then allowed my membership to lapse. My view then and since was that the membership was too small to make a significant impact. But good people kept trying and did achieve a dialogue and well done to them.
I hadn’t realised that the Trust is no longer operating as it was although I am not sure that disqualifies it as an entity.
Is it a “collective”. I think that depends on how many members there are now and how well it’s managed.
Does CCFC have a supporters organisation that is large enough and structured to represent supporters in the way that the Trust, rather than Supporters Club would like. No. I genuinely look forward to being corrected.

The first bit of this doesn’t make sense to me.
Surely allowing your membership to lapse only made the Trust numbers smaller ?
The Trust was set up to give supporters a voice.

As a fan base the response the club has given can only be expected if people can’t be arsed to be part of the body set up to represent them.

We get what we deserve 😕

I was told that’s how many fans are on its database , as in purchased tickets , memberships, playoff finals etc

How is that not unrealistic?

The fans most against the trust were Sam's crew

These people in the Trust are voted in.
Just like any other election, anyone who wants to be part of it can.

Sam’s crew were either self appointed or invited ( and that included myself for the meeting or 2 I attended).
In his care it seemed it wasn’t to listen to the fans, but more to tell them what to think anyway 😉

This is very different.

Re: Trust..CCFC big row brewing

If they are not officially recognised by the club, how is he ?

How many members have they got out of a fan data base of around 200k ?

They’ve only just said this because they’ve had a bit of criticism from the Trust representatives so are now taking their ball home
Like going back to the Clemo years

There could indeed be 200,000 names on the club’s database. The list would include several friends and relatives of mine who are now dead and others who haven’t been to a game for many years.

If you genuinely believe CCFC has a fanbase that numbers anything like 200,000, you’re batshit crazy.

Re: Trust..CCFC big row brewing

Your first paragraph is exactly what I meant …. 200k on a data base which includes email

But so what? Why quote that figure when we all know it means nothing in reality?
