Was listening to the latest episode of Business of Sport and they discussed the current dispute between the EFL and PFA over the Spending controls introduced in League 1. They mentioned that thee are currently 47 of the 91 league clubs up for sale. That means we are not the only club out there needing investment and probably puts us in an even weaker position for negotiation when you see every comment coming out of the club how financially challenged we are.

Not surprised that people are changing their viewpoint on fan-ownership as when the football you are watching on a Saturday (insert every other day of the week here) and you can see that your increasingly starting to no compete, then it will impact how you feel and wonder if PL will look just as nice in the National League .

If anyone finds themselves without a ticket by the end of the day, I will likely have a spare (but won't know until this evening )

Maybe the digital ticket links to the Fulham tickets that have been sold will be issued by Fulham so our ticket office can email them out and people can see whether they work on their phones or have time to contact the club for an alternative method of gaining entry on Thursday.

Still no official guidance other than it is the only show in town, explaining what a digital ticket is and how you access it.

And if we are talking politics today then spare a thought for German candidate Corinna Jodiet who, on her campaign poster is seen wearing a necklace which simply says “Milf”.

Fair play to her she has acknowledged it, explained it and refused to apologise for it nor to withdraw her candidacy.
You use the ICO treebs they have a set process. Organisations can sometimes try and drown you in documents that’s where AI comes in to disseminate and interrogate the content. I highly recommend using an SAR if you are having a dispute or a difficulty with an organisation.

Trigger: Who produced the SAR? Did you have to apply to the Trust and they produced it, or was it via a third party?

And as for a Labour goverment, always get far less passengers when they are in charge. Whilst public workers wages go up, the self-employed go down;-(
I am afraid none of this is remotely surprising. Isn't it exactly what most of us thought was going on? Even the bloke one hoped had a shred of decency about him demonstrates that he only cares about appearances.

There’s far worse than that in there as well DO. It’s a real insight into how the board members cower and follow instructions, happy to abandon any personal values they may have thought they had before joining the board. Disagree with the chair at your peril (although I’m still amazed at the capitulation when they were told to shut up or resign - the chair cannot “sack” anyone.

The new constitution has been written to tighten that stranglehold so it isn’t going to get any better. We no longer have a functioning Trust board - we have some people that have agreed to never criticise or challenge any decision from a small number of people who do not appear to be prioritising the football club. Their personal goals sit elsewhere, I would suggest. Where’s the £400k?
The DTB often give the impression that their order of priority is 1. DTB, 2. DT members, 3. AFCW. This is obviously exactly the opposite order it should be.

Trigger - re: your SAR. Certain named individuals should resign forthwith - unless they have no shame! What little relevance the DTB has, will sadly be diminished whilst such self-serving individuals remain on it.

Let's see what these investors are offering. We should be hearing something imminently given we were told 2/3 weeks 2/3 weeks ago. I expect detail rather than 'we are talking to people and will update you soon'. In terms of selling out we have to be pragmatic but that works both ways. As a club we do have a different culture and identity and that means something. What that meaning looks like in practice is what the Trust should be doing. I think in 5/10 years especially if these blokes bring us some success we will start looking at what type of model we can use whilst safeguarding ourselves as a club and not just a personal play thing ie. some type of Chelsea pitch owners thing, some licensing / leasing arrangement with trademarks, conditions such as supporter representation on the board etc.

The problem is not the Dons Trust. The problem is that the average League 1 squad costs about £5m more than the average League 1 club makes from running a football club.

Not saying it won't happen but people have been saying for over a decade that we will end up in the Conference South unless we sellout.
Well the last two have been unfair and I’d argue the one before that (where the voting system was accessed by the Chair) has some doubt over it. Let’s see what the new ESG does to try and stop the rot.

Faith is negative in this regard.
As long as the DT exists, it does need fair and contested elections, if only so that the relevance of the DT can be freely discussed and voted on.

Seems like that is a view which is becoming increasingly common SA.

Can’t say I disagree with it either. The time to try and have a DTB that gets things right has passed.
The DT is not really worth having now. Just sell up and see where that takes us. It's clear to me that we cannot survive being fan-owned at the level we are at. I'm not saying that having a single owner is a golden bullet but the DT is holding the Football Club back IMO and reminds me of the current government in that the DTB is clueless and cannot make a difference to the members.

I have changed my view on being fan-owned. It is no longer relevant in the current climate. We will end up in Conference South at best if we carry on like this. Kicking the can down the road is not a plan.
