I might be wrong, hope I am,but I heard Simon Lim cant make it and they will be meeting Wayne Nash and Julian Jenkins.

Last month Vincent Tan couldnt make it as he was suppose to be out of the Country until August, yet he has been back in Cardiff and London on numerous occasions.

wouldnt supprise me :lol: Its cringeworthy to say the least chuckles when an owner can not even meet his own supposed TRUST OR SUPPORTERS CLUB reps which happen to bring in money every season to the club and work there socks off for f**k all some of them, rather sad really :shock:

Academic. They know that they will be meeting to hear fans ask about a return to Blue. Somethign Tan has said is non negotiable. He is rich enough to play games behind closed doors at the end of the day - he is looking to build the club and then flog it on for a massive profit.

Some of the above comments show why Bluebirds Unite will never work in reality. I believe the Trust agree with BU regarding the shirt colour. Taking the piss hardly promotes fans unity.

A case of "I wasn't invited" to me. :(

Come on mate, I think you're taking a few comments on a message board out of context, Didn't you previously compare message board contributors to hyde park corner speakers? Now you're using a few of their comments as a reason why a whole movement will fail?

I said mb's are as relevant as Hyde park corner. Admittedly I said a few nutters.....but have you been to Hyde park corner?

My faviourite was the one who said the revolution would come with a few years (c1981)....... I'm still waiting.

Probably correct but it is a shame that all Supporters Groups couldn't work together.

Why would Tan or Lim have a meeting with the trust? They don't care about the fans or supporters groups. :x

Not one of the posts above youyrs was 'taking the piss' out of the Trust. they were taking the piss out of the fact that the Club have no interest in meeting supporters groups in tans eyes he has over 20,000 season ticket holders and a mandate to do what he wants. not surprisingly, some fans dont like this

You are not wrong Annis, I was told on Tuesday that Simon Lim had to pull out of the meeting and Julian and Wayne would meet the Trust representatives. I believe Julian only came back from holiday this morning too.

I was told the same Carl, as to some on here saying were only jealous not meeting Simon Lim, we could meet him every week if we want, fair play to him, his door is always open to our fans. I asked him if he passed on the questions ect to Tan and he was straight to the point No.

If that's the case, would it be possible for Bluebirds Unite to meet up with Simon Lim ? If so I'm sure it's something the group would be interested in.

Something thats being done :ayatollah:

If messages are not getting to tan there's no point having any dialogue with the club with regards to the rebranding.

Great to hear. Sounds like BU have some plans in place. :ayatollah:

Re: Trust meeting with Simon Lim today ? ?

Fri Jun 14, 2013 9:24 pm

who has mentioned Jealous then? Personally I would like to see ALL groups working towards a common goal but can't see that ever happening purely down to human nature. Shame. But if one group have unrestricted access to the clubs hierarchy surely they could invite other not so fortunate groups in on a meeting just for more input?

If messages are not being passed on to VT, the only way to make ourselves heard is by actions. He needs to know how a lot of fans feel :ayatollah:
