    Sounds positive, it's good to know we have people willing to challenge the current set up. Whether anything can or will change remains to be seen but this is a step in the right direction in my opinion.

    I know it's not the main issue, but I still think it's a factor.

    I'm intrigued! Good luck to them, the cause is the right one in my opinion, they just need to tweak their approach.

    I don't think it's cloak and dagger, they justify their intentions to keep it professional and don't want any comments or opinions that could be interpreted as litigious (given Conway's propensity to sue).

    They have stated they wish to reach out to all fans platforms and not be seen as a breakaway group and understand that unity is the way forward.

    Like I said it would be wrong of me to post the content, my intention was to signpost it to anyone who wants to read it. Perhaps Gally/Admin could request it be posted on here for those who don't want to go on FB.

    I was just being playful with my cloak and dagger comment, take it with a pinch of salt. And the issue of a potential lawsuit from Conway is a good point. I still think removing Gally from the group without a prior explanation was poor form, but i believe that's now been explained and Gally had the option to rejoin. I know one of the lads has some involvement (maybe he's the main guy?), and he has always come across as a good guy to me, tells it how it is, and lives for the club, so I trust it's in safe hands with his involvement. As I said, a good cause, but some admin tweaks needed imo.

    I’ll post a summary of the post:

    There are a group of 10 people who have got together to organise this.
    Those 10 are not known people (as in well known) but ‘normal’ people from different walks of life.
    At this point they would rather not be publicly known.
    The group already have a party interested in stepping in if the current owners leave.
    They will be organising protests
    There will be a meeting at the Garrison on 1st Feb(ticket only), proceeds to go to charity.
    They intend to use the group to call out the owners on certain subjects as and when required to keep them to account, but have made it clear they will only use provable facts.
    They are encouraging people to contact Admins with anything appropriate to use.
    They intend to reach out to all supporters groups as they will be stronger together.

    Is this party someone who can take the club forward though. In today's money that would have to be a billionaire.

    I've been kicked off Face ache already. I didn't meet their standards regarding transparency apparently. Their loss.
