Attack gimp? Really? Mild mannered mostly.

True enough but change is coming whether they like it or not

Sadly nick they run the club just aswell as they run elections

Really time to stop arguing with the DTB about the running of the elections- we all know that the process wasn’t fair, but it’s pretty irrelevant now, as within a year or two we will be in administration or have been taken over by an external investor (or both), so all of their machinations will have been for nothing

Absolutely, Aideen.

Shane, fuck the lot of them, they’ll be binned off with a new owner, can’t come soon enough. Can’t think of a single positive to say about any of them.

Loved Cal Kennedy. I think we all did, and Lyle was an interesting subtle sort of bloke. Would have loved to have gone tonight and would have if we still lived up there. Good to hear it was a good evening.

Ah the attack gimp is here

An excellent evening at Plough Lane although the portions of curry were miniscule and I have a shit appetite. Lots of banter, LTB as eloquent as ever and who knew what a great sense of humour Callum Kennedy has?

And as part of the constitutional review they slapped a £10k price tag on anyone wishing to raise a dispute via any sort of impartial mediation/arbitration process, effectively shutting down the prospect of challenges from members or candidates regardless of how much they’ve been wronged. It’s a shame they didn’t consider using the free FSA mediation process as a first option. It doesn’t surprise me that they wanted to put extra barriers in the way of accountability given their lack of transparency on all manner of items in the past.

Ed Mayo MBE refused the request to share his report with all participants. So we don’t even know whether what he submitted is what the board have published.

“The below is based on my understanding of the review based on the announcement from the Dons Trust Board themselves: 1. As independent reviewer you report into the Dons Trust Board - this creates a potential conflict of interest. I believe you should report to the membership as a whole and not the board. 2. Your completed report will be shared with the Dons Trust Board and they will decide whether and how much to share with members - would you consider committing to sharing your completed report with those who have engaged with the review instead of just the board? 3. The Dons Trust board will make any and all decisions on what happens post-review - you could do wholly excellent work and make reasonable and effective recommendations for changes to prevent repeated reviews being necessary and the board could ignore it completely. I'm afraid I see no solution to this in the current structure and this is the main point for me thinking that I'm better off pursuing alternative routes to resolving things.“

This is Wimbledon FC/AFC Wimbledon and it will outlive these people.

No value in arguing with the clique they’ve brought this club to its knees with their culture. Discord is just five people agreeing with each other. Yes I’m still banned from there but the last time I challenged it Reece Wally Shitforbrains suggested he wrote my apology for me.

Vale 3-1 up at Posh….

Poor Kent team VCD athletic have folded were in same division as the bulls but got relegated

Keefy - yes, I think Plymouth will beat us easily on Saturday, they’ll be so up for it, and their game against Exeter was a bit of a wobble… It’s gonna be tough - I expect Curtis and Tolaj to both score….

OI I’d suggest the fact he’s not in there is exactly why they’re doing it. There’s some shoddy cowardice about some behaviours over the past few years.

Not sure if this works [Link]

Has anyone announced the current level of ST renewal - I’m thinking it might be down vs last season due to cost of living, etc…?

Bromley could go up tonight

Season ticket window extended [Link]

Some critics have attacked Shane’s decision to decline an interview, claiming his refusal proves the "process" was justified. However, the facts don't support this. Given the history of these matters, it is reasonable to ask why he would participate in an "independent" review when his interest in the role has long since faded. Furthermore, considering the nature of past complaints and previous outcomes, it’s easy to view this as another toothless, "tick-box" exercise.

Same here. Not on Discord, but as OI says Shane is unable to respond as he isn't either.

No idea what was said on Discord. My point was that Shane has no right of reply. Anyone associated with the election is free to comment here if they wish (at least I believe so). In fact it would be great if some did.
