The confrontation has not come from the Trust. A huge number of people join - which is good with the right motives - but immediately put down a motion demanding an election with the aim of removing the chair Keith Morgan and probably most of the board.
The usual annual election process starts in the new year so there was an opportunity to put forward candidates for the board and in the meantime for dialogue but there is an agenda, however, it is dressed up.
Suggest you read some of Steve Day's posts on X yesterday you will find over-the-top personal criticism of Keith Morgan. Take a look. That shows the direction that is being pursued.

Re: Sent out to Trust members this morning.
Has everyone seen this? (This is just the start of it, worth a read, it's not hard to find)
Hi all,
As one of the 28 signatories of a recent letter, I want to clarify our position on our request for an Election of the CCST Trust board, considering some of the unfair rumours doing the rounds. We have stayed silent and not put comments out on social media to avoid battles and try to keep things professional. We’ve spoken with CCST Board directly on several occasions, so they are aware of all the below.
Firstly, none of us are named *****, despite the rumours. We are supporters of the football club, who feel more can and should be done.
“We wish the focus to only be on creating a stronger trust, not personal battles.”

So why has AA joined the Trust - as the talk suggests and that hasn't been denied? Is it to focus on creating a so-called stronger trust or is to remove the chair and other members and completely change the way the Trust operates?

It would be helpful if you advised for all of what you consider needs to be done and listed the 3 priorities that you think the trust should be delivering on.

A boring old accountant like millions of others around the 🌍 . Two a penny. He needs toppling and your club needs a true football fan representative whoever that maybe. Not an asslicker.

These are the two guys who promised the takeover was happening and sending similar messages laughing about the trust being mistaken when they warned against fans getting their hopes up. How did that all end again…
Exactly. They also encouraged a pile on against the Trust for being proven right

It's not me, it's the start of a long post elsewhere that covers what they want.

AA was in fact one of the original Trust members, so it's a case of him rejoining rather than joining for the first time.

A little odd that this "person" signs up this week and has spent every single person fighting your corner and defending you and the Trust. Their post on what the Trust has acheived was almost an exact replica of yours just days earlier.

You'd have to define exactly what "all of this" is for me to provide you with an answer to that suggestion.
I can tell what I definitely didn't enjoy though, and that was learning an organisation I and a handful of others (including Keith) worked so hard to create in the first place had dropped down to such a disappointingly low level of membership.

I thought having known the amount of effort and work involved youÂ’d be more self aware than to snipe at volunteers from a distance when you havenÂ’t been involved for a number of years but maybe not

I guess he knows the answer - he wants to remove the Trust chair. This is very personal in my view.

Snipe at volunteers? Where and when have I done that?

You have regularly criticised the low membership of the trust. Who is that aimed at? Trust volunteers I would assume rather than supporters who have not signed up. In a long post earlier in the thread you mentioned that “apparently” lots of people now call it the Keith Morgan show. I have not heard anyone in or out of the trust mention this apart from certain individuals (and the same phrase is now being used by Daya on X to whip up him and AA’s followers).
The post I replied to you also managed to change the subject to the membership numbers again (despite it being clarified earlier in this thread it is in line with clubs of our size which you chose to ignore).
Then you are straight in clarifying AA was an original member as if this was relevant to anything. You are not thick as far as I’m aware, you know what you are doing.
