What "show" do you believe Sian is now running?

This can be put to bed if the identity behind the twitter account can be revealed.

What leads you to believe that Sian Branson led the Twitter argument?
I have seen nothing to suggest this , so on what basis do you make this claim? Is it just guesswork or supposition on your part?

Keith, it was suggested that it was Jon Candy, although my impression was that Jon Candy only started the 'thread' on here last night ;)

However, several (reasonably ITK) people believed it to be Sian ;)

That may or may not be the case, but surely you can see that writing under the 'cover' of the the Trust's twitter site allows the author to (a) hide, and (b) casts a 'shadow of association' on anyone within the Trust who has access to that account?

There are people on the Trust that I respect (you are one, but Sian certainly isn't!) and a simple admission by the author would put the whole question to bed and may even lend the twitter spat a little more credibility :thumbup:

I'm 100% with you on this. Truly cringworthy embarrassing stuff

Embarrassing on the Trusts behalf! Represent less than 500 fans? Complete joke.

Re: Trust,Branson and Borley

Totally embarrassing

This is what happens when the mention of a place of board for a fans representative is made.

People come out the woodwork with there own agendas

Think it a bad idea personally

Unless we deem ourselves a little club, the days of a fanon the board have gone.

It worked down the road because of the timing. They will agree they were a small club, in value, at the time and only the fans were interested in saving them.

Any fan on our board will be a token gesture and they will not given any sort of vote on anything important. They will go to meetings, say their piece and be removed before the running of the club chat begins.

We are deluded if we think otherwise and Borley was right when he said, you want a voice, stick some money in. Its not nice but it's the way of the game now.

Unfortunately it's true. Fan representation on the board of even fan ownership is way out of our reach at the moment. The best we can acheive at the moment is what's apparently going to happen. More dialogue between City and the fans.

I'm still optimistic for fan ownership, as I think the English system should follow the German system. But it's a few miles off yet.

I know you weren't discussing fan ownership, but I got a bit carried away.
