That's my take anyway

It is not so much a case of ruffling a few feathers more one of making those who just go on about change and expect it just to happen realise that they also need to come forward with workable solutions as well as saying they are needed. Nobody on here has done that so far. Maybe there are a few out there but not on this forum. Sure I do not like going to all these matches home ( plus a lot away) and seeing defeat after defeat. But it will not stop me going next season if we drop down one division and while crowds will drop there will still be a nucleus supporting the club as it is run now. Without doubt we have a very stable and sustainable set up which will financially cut its cloth if necessary to keep the club going. Sacking and changing the club officials and players now has no guarantee of success now or in the future. I don't have an answer now except to think that it is the players who have to kick start it somehow. . They are substantially the same as those who were near the top of the league last year. So for the moment I am content to let those who are running the show to carry on . Some will say they are burying their heads in the sand . I don't believe that because they as fans as well will miss the club just as much as I would if it were to go under.

But they are privately owned, surely this can't be allowed to happen?

That would be Lincoln who were non league not so long ago? I'm sure your comrades get you point, not sure I do, or want to.

Who are these shadow members and what are their plans to change things. Who is going to vote against members who want to be re-elected. Number who vote are a small number of the total trust membership. I am always in that small number and base my view on what I know not what might be. Who are these investors . None are making themselves public. And so I remain to be convinced that what we have now should be any worse than the drastic and largely unplanned changes many on here would bring in

You need to ask the WST, it's for them to sort, nobody else. No one has a clue who's shadowing who or if it's being done, only one person is being 'shadowed' through necessity.

None of us know what Dixies role is either, the only one who's responsibilities wasn't listed and disclosed.

Great question! It's one of the 80+ I really wish the club board had answered when it was asked it their recent Q and A.
