Fleet Trust have spoken...

[Hirsty]

Yep....go with it or go bust....fair enough a ?

 

Still not happy though....oh well...that's life Esther !!

[Claudius]

No,not fair enough Hirsty.

Still,a reality in football me thinks..and battling like Don Quijote hasn´t a golden rainbow attached to it..not anymore..if it ever had one in the first place..one wonders.

MY understanding (and feel free to correct me if I am wrong) is that EVERYONE who voted agreed - therefore unanimously. If you wanted a NO vote, all ya had to do was turn up and say so!

Presumably the Trust's long-term goal is still to take control of the club for itself, though?

Will this be voted on by MyFC members in the true spirit ( ha !) of the venture ? In which case it may end up being the most diversely stocked bar in the region !!

I don't have a vote as a supporter, season ticket holder or ( current ) shareholder, but would advise against removing the Strongbow.....you can only push a man so far you know !!

Cheers,

As long as they keep that Oranjeboom filth out of the bar they can do what they like.

Actually, all you had to do was be a Trust member, turn up and say so.

I stand corrected...

The Fleet Trust are very grateful indeed to all regular donors and as the Trust will be continuing to support the Club, regardless of who is the owner, it is certainly envisaged that it will be the same system in place as before. Please continue to make your donations which are the lifeblood of the Trust's regular financial support of the Club.

Fleet trust introduce car parking tokens ?

[American FLEET FAN No1]

I saw somwehere the Official Carpark, was for token holders only. I don't know who issues them. If there weren't so many dead coaches in there, more people could park!

[Greg_Dyke]

and the club needs extra car-park tokens

 

you thought we were jokin'

To the best of my knowledge no member of the Fleet Trust board has ever stated this. Unless there was an utter catastrophe following the proposed takeover, it would not ever be likely either.

The existance of 25,000 members of MyFC supporting EUFC could lead to growing numbers of committed EUFc supporters. In the long term this could swell the ranks of the ST leading to a situation where they might be in a position to purchase the club from MyFC (in the event that MyFC sold the club).

Because of the rules of MyFc the members cannot make any profit from the sale of a club. Any income received from the sale of the club would be donated to charity. I, along with a substantial number of other members on the MyFC forum, support the idea of giving first refusal to the supporters trust to purchase the club for a nominal price, and, if it is possible, to write this into the agreement for the purchase of EUFC I would fully support this.
