The Trust has messed up, but not everything they have done has been terrible. The finance guy for the Trust always comes across as the smartest bloke on the team, especially at the meetings I attended during and the year or two after the takeover.

There was quite rightly resistance to stop the previous owner getting the WST money but I believe those on this thread are referring to the bond required by the league which the then owners were unwilling to provide. - Placing the club in jeopardy
That all important bond was provided by fans (organised outside of the WST and by just a handful of well organised individuals.) I might be challenged on this but it wasn't the WST boards finest hour.
