    Trust's letter seemed entirely reasonable to me and in no way "self-serving". Pathetic response from the club.

    Is it?

    A more pathetic response would be what some other clubs do and just ignore it.

    Thank god for this. I was worried it had been a bit too long without some controversy. I was starting to wonder if I was still supporting Cardiff City.

    But some of the way it's written could be better,
    As soon as someone says "We mean no disrespect but..." you know they mean disrespect.
    Using words like "Yourself" out of context doesn't help to give the impression of any level of the professionalism espoused by those authors who describe themselves as professionals in business.. "When yourself assumed the ownership" It's bad english and words like 'myself' and 'yourself' are usually used incorrectly by people trying to hard to appear cleverer than they are. Me and You suffices.
    Unprofessional!

    This is fantastic. Good old Mehmet in Monaco has really got the hump it seems. Keith must have upset him with his latest accounts commentary.

    Does the Trust still have an office at the stadium? If so, I doubt they’ll have one for long.

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

    The organisation known as Cardiff City Supporters’ Trust was de-registered as a mutual organisation/Trust from the Financial Conduct Authority in 2016 and does not meet the Football Supporters Associations (FSA’s) basic minimum requirements. For these important reasons, Cardiff City Football Club does not recognise the Trust as an official entity.
    News to me that paragraph, what’s a basic requirement?

    I also noted erroneous use of the reflexive myself .

    The trust letter has got the response it deserved from the club. It was rambling and poorly put together with contradictory sections. If it is true that they are not an officially recognised organisation and do not meet the basic requirement of such a group anyway, then they shouldn't even have written the letter on ‘our’ behalf in the first place. The official supporters club should now take up the reigns of representing us fans to the club and get more involved. I am all for open dialogue and fan representation on boards etc but it must be done properly and courteously through the correct channels.

    What disappoints is not so much the Club's response, but the fact that you here absolutely nothing from the Directors for months and then they choose this to alert the supporters that they're still aware the Club exists. What other business or organization with a £50 million turnover would operate without anyone at the helm.
