If Monday’s Meeting is full of nodding dogs, then we have lost it. If we want a football club for our kids in the future, we need to get off our key boards and arses and get our views across.

No he certainly is not suggesting that matters be left as they are. If you were to read the emails that are posted elsewhere, you will see the criticism of the current "status quo."
I have yet to see anybody add their letters or emails of complaint to that particular thread, which possibly helps to explain why that "status quo" has not been changed to overcome the challenges the team faces on the pitch, and the challenges that fans/members face when watching us lose points to teams beneath us for example.
If you let a sleeping dog lie, he's unlikely to go off chasing around the greyhound track. Our "sleeping dogs" are the same. If they don't see our opinions they won't change a thing.
The more members that the Trust has, the bigger the pool of talent that will be available to make positive changes in the Board room, and the greater the chance of finding some new members that might dig deep instead of it always being the same faces that fill the buckets. If you were thinking of becoming a wealthy benefactor, would you choose a club that had lost its spirit as well as its fanbase, or would you chose one whose supporters have fire in their bellies to reward your input with their loyalty?
Attend the meeting next week. Send in your opinions - not here or on FB where they won't make the slightest difference, but to the only people that can make the changes we all want today, and that's the ones who are currently in charge and answerable to all members - write to the Board, NOW!
