Whilst fully supporting trust ownership, I envisage a time in the not to distant future, irrespective of success or lack of on the field, that some form of duality, similar to that at other clubs will need to be looked at.
There is an obvious and not unreasonable fear of a repetition of the Hamilton and Moss eras but ownership of the club is with the trust.
We should now start looking long term in trying to purchase the ground or look to relocate, even if this was to be done over 10 or 20 years. This I feel is an area where controlled share issue could be beneficial.
