Maybe you're right RK! Am not sure. Interesting times ahead anyway :-)

Lets see if that Robbie Earle consortium puts their money where their mouth is!
Don’t know how to feel about this to be honest. Gutted about the 15% threshold been removed. It’s not far fetched to fear that someone will soon own 49.99% of my club.

Yes RK it will be fascinating to see what sort of folk come in with what sort of offers. And hopefully all handled transparently rather than the last time around.

I think it's simple majority Hash?

Gives the DTB some hope but a long way to go. As such, also gived Wup folk some hope in that we could attract investors who will later be interested in ownership
As I understand it the 2nd vote requires 2/3 to vote in favour on a 50% turn out. So given we got 92% we can assume the 1st threshold will pass and given the turnout was 60% we should get the 50% turnout.

Ah, thanks. I'm not really one for constitutional procedures...

We should have done 50+1 a decade ago
Those the rules Rob and same as sale of KM as per constitution. First hurdle to get 50% of members, was the hard one, esp with expanded membership

Rob it's a restricted action so needs two votes, like the back in two ticks thing. IIRC the threshold for the 2ns vote is lower so we can assume this is through given the landslide and ease with which it has passed all three thresholds in the 1st vote.

Avoids administration in the short term. Now have to see who’s willing to pay how much.

Afternoon all. What is a 60% turnout in terms of numbers?

[45.lo.gg.ed]
Hash - agreed if it's true.
Meadow - maybe it's time you just stuck to football and not how the club is run.

I love bookmarking old posts. I would suggest listening to our latest episode with James Longhurst but you stopped listening a few months back when every rumour we put out was wide of the mark. Yes we’re in trouble but not as badly as we've stated haha
Could you give us a clue or a little hint, Naz? It’s very exciting.

Did 50+1 fail based on turnout?
As per last night it’s ok OI I understand your decision to remove the content even if I disagree with it. Wasn’t exactly a hill I was willing to die on.

We are badly run - some of the decisions made years back still hurt us today and some of the decisions being made today will continue to hurt us in future. Luckily for us we have some capable people in key positions when it comes to the footballing side of things right now and I am very thankful for that. If we could get just one decent person onto our boards that would be a step in the right direction - but I think that our finances will decide what the future looks like now and not people.
I’d say we’re probably less poorly run than most other clubs rather than well run

I hate football as a business.
We are a well run club,other clubs and investors are impressed how well run we are, . They obviously missed the ticket chaos of a few years ago, the 400k , the treatment of some volunteers, and im sure their are other examples.:-)

Well run indeed, have an award
Apparently the relaxed demeanour of the DTb last night suggested yes. It was also implied that if your vote was impacted by the technical issues then it was your fault
