Lebanon 1-0 at halftime Bugiel is playing

Clear and concise FAQ from Trust Issues. Much of that could/should have come from the DTB. Does tail off in the final half sentence with "but this is in the DTB's hands". Can't have everything I guess.

nick I don't think anyone is saying more democracy is the answer to our structural problems. What's being done here is trying to reign in the DTB from a position where everything favours them and they can essentially just do whatever they want and block anyone outside their group from changing anything. I mean what I say about a coup taking place while everyone sleep walked into being lesser members. We need to get some control over this. This is needed otherwise you can't do anything about improving any of the structure. Look at the CEO/DTB chair/COO situation.

Sorry for being ignorant but what is the FSA

Same old Leicester, always cheating

Just catching up on my emails - the "correction" from the DTB (from "the FSA told us not to make this change" to "the FSA didn't actually express a view either way") is quite shocking and exactly why they shouldn't be allowed to give advice on motions ahead of a meeting. I don't really like the idea or see the point of preventing voting ahead of meetings but the other resolutions are just basic fairness and I voted in favour (these aspects weren't a problem in the early days, when the views of the DTB and the membership were broadly the same, but I don't think that we can rely on that now)

Pinged you, Pete.

Steve Bruce new blackpool boss

Paddington - Could you drop me an email, please. Email in profile. Thanks.

Nicander- fair enough, I see your point. I doubt that I will vote either way as I cannot really support either the current, manifestly incompetent, DTB or the idea that “more democracy” is the answer to our structural problems, but I will at least read through the papers so that my view is a considered one

Nick - all I would say is that I think some are envisaging that we want members more involved in every decision and want everyone fully engaged in every debate etc. that isn't the case. We are looking to reinforce protections against edge cases (eg hostile minority shareholders, incompetent boards etc) that YMMV on the likelihood of, but which we feel exposed to at present. These changes would benefit us on the most important decisions.

I've watched half a dozen games on Sky Sports + now and had almost no issues. The picture takes a few seconds to stabilise when I start and I've had a few short stutters but only for a few seconds and an average of less than one a game. I am viewing on a wired link via an EE Box adjacent to the Hub, which probably helps.

Every picture I see of Petrillo suggests to me that he's a man 🤔🤔

Yes, every match on Sky Sports +

All league cup games televised though right? Just via the glitchy Sky Sports +?

Nicander- yeah that’s a totally fair comment, but on the other hand there is never anything of value in the meetings either, so voting after the meeting is no better. really the issue is that trying to run a football club, even at a strategic level, based on voting by unqualified supporters like me doesn’t really make sense

Better chance of beating the scum now we aren't playing the geordies until 24th. Might of had a few with one eye on that game if it was the following Tuesday. Now they can fully concentrate on yhe Bletchley Stealers

Newcastle were on live at Forest in the 2nd round

We didn't get picked as a prime TV match. Those chosen were Man Utd v Barnsley (really, all about money), Coventry v Spurs (good choice), Wycombe v Villa (same night us and a safer giant killing risk) and Liverpool v West Ham (the compulsory all PL match with only three to choose from due to the seeding).

Nick - you're putting a lot of faith in those papers.

Shame on the Newcastle date for me personally as I'll be away. I don't tend to care too much about the League Cup these days but that game does at least have a little bit of excitement about it.
