I see Millwall are in Spain playing elche Tom morning at 930 so they should be bronzed up when we play them next week.also I hear on the street a few hammers fans coming down to watch the game as well

Sorry pete, Jon Galt.

Nice one Nick, fingers crossed for Luton tickets then. I can then book rail tickets once in receipt of match tickets.

rover t - Which JG?

Rover T, providing the plebs coughed up their share

Only JG would be able to afford to be Club President!

I only highlight problems, Stu — don’t ask me for answers 😉. In all seriousness, I’d be sending a questionnaire to all current and former Dons Trust board members to get their views. As you rightly point out, those of us on the outside can only ever offer a fairly narrow perspective. The questionnaire would include a range of questions about their time on the board — things like: • Did you enjoy it? • What did you learn? • What would you change? • Did you feel supported in the role? • What would you recommend to any future applicants? Hopefully, the responses would give us a much clearer view of where the real issues lie. From where I sit now — and without wanting to oversimplify — I’d also be looking at alternative governance models that keep the option of fan-ownership but maybe function more effectively. For example, the German model sees members electing representatives directly to the football club board, rather than having two separate structures. Or we could consider the Spanish model used by clubs like Barcelona and Real Madrid, where members elect a club president, who then personally guarantees a portion of the club’s budget and appoints the rest of their board. Either way, there are examples out there worth studying — especially if members want to stay fan-owned but sharpen up how we actually run things.

RK doesn’t being on the DTB count?

Bit young for the speakers' circuit, thought you had to actually had to do something first

Kanu to debut at Sutton on Saturday, you heard it here first...

And I saw that Luton tickets go on sale on Monday to seasonal ticket holders, I believe

And whatever happened to Freddie Flaxman?

Can 16 year olds vote in the DTB Elections?

And another Thursday slides away with no signing...?

I have no doubt it's difficult and I imagine with things the way they are it's not gonna get easier anytime soon.

Don’t know there dates yet but they have Colliers Wood this sat in second leg of cup game EPFC

What is the solution then JaW? Easy to point out the issues as you rightly have, but many different people on the DTB have struggled over the last 5 years at least and I don’t think Angus is the first person to be made DTB chair on the basis nobody else wanted it.

I understand your view, Stu, but anyone taking on a position of power should expect criticism—especially when the same mistakes keep happening. As I said on Discord, with six resignations in three years, it’s clear the DTB model needs to be seriously reconsidered. Regarding Angus, Richard Shepperd’s comments on Discord suggest he took the role simply because no one else stepped up. That highlights the problem even more. We shouldn’t be in a situation where the Chair is chosen by default, rather than based on merit and skills.

We have no idea whether anyone else wanted to or was given the option to.

The DTB chair is a problem and always has been. Angus has thankfully stepped in a number of time to cover when its been needed and he deserves plaudits for that. I think he struggles being chair at meetings, however the meetings he has had to chair were challenging to say the least. The DTB chair role requires even more time dedicated to it and its always been a reason that there have been very few people on the DTB who want to take the role on.
