I can see the DTB advert now "Poorf Reader Wanted"

Trigger - re: your SAR. Is it too late to request the missing data from the August 2025 response instead of raising a new request?

Can ChatGPT explain the word "accountability" to whomever might benefit from understanding it and the benefits it brings?

I don't know if ChatGPT would spot a typo in email address, but would probably pick up the same resolution being listed twice on a voting form

WJ - hahahaha. Proof reading is a missing skill. Or simply use ChatGPT to check documents?

Laurence, you missed out 'slapdash'

I am always deeply worried that there be great damage being done by an unelected and unqualified person.

6MDM- yup looks like PLc board meeting minutes have ceased to be posted. A fans club !!

I’m surprised that Foyo didn’t get a longer ban in the first place when you consider that he was betting on winning games that he played in and also for them to lose in games that he didn’t. He even had a bet on the result of a game, during the 90 minutes but once he was substituted. He had apparently attended educational classes to make players aware of the rules and what was expected of them. The FA seem to be ok with the involvement of betting companies in football, so perhaps they should be doing more to help the players who are unable to stop themselves from partaking in the services that these companies offer.

It seems they have given up posting links to the PLC board meeting minutes anymore. Nothing since August. Given the financial Armageddon we are hurtling towards, it would be real peachy if the PLC had a meeting to discuss it and give us an inkling they have.

Good on you for raising the question OI. Does seem an odd coupling if there are moves to close Discord down but still for now have it as the only way members can ask questions at an AGM.

George does seem to manage the technology so he needs to be involved in decisions but it is the DTB's responsibility to make sure people can raise issues at the AGM.

What authority does George have ? He seems to have come a long way since just being a ballboy. Is it just that he knows people from being a volunteer and has wormed his way into the inner sanctum ? I am very sceptical about his involvement behind the scenes at the club. Can anyone just volunteer and become someone with importance behind the scenes just because you make yourself available for anything ? Does he have to qualify in some way, or not ? Maybe it's a case of being in the know or who he knows.

Well my point that only allowing online questions during the AGM via Discord disenfranchises the vast majority of members has been referred to George so it will be interesting to see what happens.

I always find banning a player for offences he committed at another club peculiar because it is his current club that get punished. Firstly, I presume we have to continue paying his salary (although as he is not available for work because of his own actions whilst at a former employer, effectively frustrating his current employment) there is a strong argument we should not have to (not that I think we would, even though we are broke). Secondly, the current club have to make do without the player too. At least Foyo can still train with us for the rest of his ban, unlike the first part. Previously, players banned for betting couldn't even do that, which elongated the punishment for the current club. Make the fine bigger but not the ban.

Bit harsh from the FA that.

Jan 26th for Foyo (extra 2 moths)

What shits the FA are. DO is that correct he can play after Xmas day?

CM - So Foyo can play on Boxing Day!

What a bunch of tossers the FA are

Yep 2 more months ,no more sutton unt[Link]

Just seen Foyo ban extended because FA appealed. As someone pointed out, wasn’t it the FA who investigated it in the first place. Still that’s all the ills of football solved - obviously having sky bet logos all over the place doesn’t give any mixed messages or anything.

Tumbleweed blowing through

OtD - that game was the high point of our relegation season. Iirc, I think we did the double over Watford and Sheffield Wednesday did the double over us, and all 3 of us went down. :-(
