Infantino's four year term runs 2027-31, so three more years, unless there is a way of getting rid. Wales first country to withdraw support but not sure what that translates to. Now his WC sale has fallen through, can he honestly stay on as a dead President walking?

But unacceptable is in the eye of the beholder. Unacceptable on an unofficial fans’ forum is pretty easy to understand.

Unacceptable to the dons trust board is down to very weak personal sensitivities and whether you know where the £400k went or how Rule 10 came to be or where the money is going or how one person can be in complete control of club and trust finances and the finance committee and the club board and influencing ESG and DTB decision making.
Did you realise it or did someone tell you that?

If a post is unacceptable then deal with it as a moderator. You’re damn good at it.
I have signed the volunteers charter for quite a few years as a programme seller. I've recently realised that as a moderator of this place I could be in breach of the rules in allowing or not seeing unacceptable posts on here. As it happens, getting to Plough Lane in dreadful traffic has led to me resigning my volunteer role.

If DTB members want the VCOC published but can’t get it published then they have a duty to members (and volunteers) to explain who is blocking it.

If they choose not to do that they become complicit, not victims.
I see in the High Court in poland on Friday the countries greatest ever confidence trickster sentenced the judge to five years hard labour

OI - I think all supporters have a right to know to what standards volunteers are being held. You can find out what standards dictirs, teachers, police etc are held - but not AFCW volunteers? Crazy - publish and be damned!

More importantly, TM has promised to blow £400k-gate wide open if you do!
OI you tease! Share the doc and I’ll share which firm we have the £400k dispute with…!

Isn’t it bad how there’s so much smoke and mirrors !
I could publish the copy I have but that seems unfair as it was sent to me confidentially. Anyway, the whole point is that we want people to volunteer (do we have an ESG chair yet? Jury members for DT behaviour?) Some of them might wish to see what they are commiting to before offering.

The weird thing is it is strict in some ways but not dreadful, you don't need to sacrifice your first born or juggle with snakes.
Isn't the solution, just volunteer for something and the DTB will then ask you to sign the CoC which you can then publish?

although I know that that won't happen ;-/
Padds - a rogue DTB member (no names) did send me a copy after the Volunteer Co-ordinator refused to, so it does (did) exist. The DTB members I've talked to tell me it should be published but seem unable to get it published. I could be told that the DTB don't want it available and I'd stop asking but maybe the publicity of refusing would look bad.

it is just crazy, an important document against which people can be judged
OI - as you and I both know the volunteer code of conduct does not actually exist and will be whatever the DTB says it is in the situation presenting itself.

Also like the 2026 World Cup with an aim to promote one person (and his sidecick in FIFA) and overt discrimination against some of the competitors and officials.

CW, funny you should say that, I thought that exact thing. Plus the Sochi games, each trying to garner influences in their own ways.

Should have perhaps reached that with Beijing, but didn't, not sure why with that, seems an obvious thing for the Chinese to align with.
Timmy Magic. I have seen the first episode too. TBH I have had so much time on my hands, due to being unable to work, it was inevitable that I would eventually spread my quest for knowledge to areas that weren't really in my wheelhouse. WW2 has started that journey away from the legal stuff and medical stuff that's directly affecting me. The trouble with that is both medicine and the law drags on and on, with little happening. Thankfully I have surgery on the horizon to hopefully provide some welcome distraction.

WW2 was kind of glossed over for me with both sets of grandparents both deeply affected by it and their reluctance to speak of if. Mentally I think I put up shields against the subject, rather than explore the reasons behind the harm , these giants in my life suffered.
OI- it’s great that theres different content via different channels, but like the WHAD podcast said, the comms and intro to new players on OS has been crap. Hopefully the season launch event on Tuesday will be good

OTD-I went to that game v Watford, as there was a Test match on at he same time I think Papers mocked me for preferring football

Because the young people use the socials and not the website, it is only us old farts who use the website and we are unimportant these days until money is required.

Our daughter held out against Facebook for years, but succumbed in the end because she only got to hear about stuff if someone remembered to text her separately.
