Trust..CCFC big row brewing

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 ?

People set up a trust

People openly and secretly abuse and threaten members of the trust

And most of our fans want a pot of gold without having to dig for it

So don't bother joining or take the piss out of the trust

Trust loses members

And this goes round and round so people who just want to watch the football and do nothing end up doing CCFCs job for it ......divide and rule

We have what we deserve , the farcical red episode , tan , the trust with no power, the works

Welcome to CCFC 2022

I think someone at the club doesn't like criticism.

The statement includes easily verifiable inaccuracies regarding the FSA.

CCST and CCSC are mentioned on the FSA website - Affiliates and associates - Football Supporters' Association (thefsa.org.uk)

Re: Trust..CCFC big row brewing

Your not far wrong with that assessment, I’ve never seen anything from the trust apart from a poster on here who does commentary on HMRC filed accounts in respect of Cardiff City

That answers my question.... I think!

10 board members? And is it a "Company"? They've got more board members than the club. They should offer to meet them in Bedau! Sort it out once and for all!

It may or may not be true that the Trust failed to meet the FCA's requirements. That the Club justified its actions as a response to the provocative letter by stating that the "failure" was 6 years ago but they decided to take action now after regular dialogue in the intervening period just comes over as petty and churlish!

Down with the trust !

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

Yeh, reading their News page just recently they have been promoting how Cardiff fans can help support a local foodbank, the Ukraine Appeal and the March against Racism. Haven’t these nosey f*ckers got anything better to do with their time?

Re: Trust..CCFC big row brewing

What a load of fuss over nothing. The vast majority of fans of all clubs, just want to go to games, hope for a win, or at least a good performance, then win lose or draw, discuss the game over a few beers afterwards.
Supporters trusts, are made up of the small minority of nosey f*ckers who want to know the ins and outs of a cats arse.
Because they pay to go to games, they feel as though they’ve got the right to be involved in how the club is run.
Any supporter who thinks they aren’t just ‘customers’ are kidding themselves.

Nosey f*ckers 😂

Re: Trust..CCFC big row brewing

I mentioned earlier that he best you can hope given the ownership structure here is that a Trust can be a critical friend. It seems to me under that structure clubs take two roads. They either do the Jacks route sugaring the Trust members with enough seductive freebies that when it comes to selling out the Trust heirarchy don't realise that they've been conned until it's too late. Or you want to be seen as so independent that the club can swat you away like today's pronouncement. Either way the best that fans can hope for these days is to mould the edges.

It is a little ironic that the Derby County Trust appears to have a higher recognition with the FSA but didn't impede a 21 point deduction.

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. 👍

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.
