Weird it didn't get an answer, isn't it?

Isn't it. But then he can't exactly say no if it's coming from the top table.

I don't have the skills required, the know-how to be on a board but I don't think that discredits me from calling out things that don't seem right. If I did have skills that I feel could benefit the club, I'd be extremely wary of putting myself out there.

I get the argument that to seriously influence some change, you may have to put yourself forward but you then need more like minded individuals to do the same who are prepared to be scrutinised maybe to a level that isn't really warranted.

When that Wayne guy from Radio Wales ruffled a few feathers, sure enough, the odd customer review from the business he was involved in is posted up on here.

If people start delving into the lives of board members then it suddenly becomes bullying and personal.

Anybody standing that isn't just a yes man/woman, you have my utmost respect and probably my vote, although whether it's needed is another matter.

Yes. That wasn't a dig at anyone who decided not to stand as a result of that. If I lived nearer, I'd think about it but totally get why people thought it not worth it.

But you are right. it needs a group of people willing to do that or nothing will change. We were told there would be big changes by those who think they're in the know. Reality appears to be very different. To change the focus can not be on individuals trying to get change but, for now, a movement.

I'm told those behind the EGM movement wanted to sit down with the WST to tdy and find some common ground. I don’t believe the offer of a meeting was every taken up, with a lot of the usual intimidation to go along with it.

Anyhope of those behind the EGM movement as I hoped coming forward and standing for election, clearly went some time ago.

You only have to speak to a former WST board member to find out what the intimidation is like, he's pretty open and honest about it.

Hasn't Pete said in his Chairman's report in the WST Accounts that the EGM group wouldn't meet with them?

I'm sure i was told it was the other way round at first, then after due to intimidation peoples names being leaked they would not meet without assurances.

I'm sure someone will have a better memory than me on those events.

I do know for certain somebody asked for more information on calling an EGM, that was shared with a number of people by Alan Fox. Quay Red is one person who was told.

So much for data protection.

[GiggityGiggityGiggityGoo]

Somebody also put in a formal complaint to Alan Fox regarding people's conduct at the club, that was of course never investigated properly and swept under the carpet.

Is it true that Barrow did not have a signed contract when Ricketts left?

Dixie voted Flynn not Keates as the board tried to lie about, he confirmed Keates wasn't his choice alone.
