[cite]Posted By: Dave Rudd[/cite]Great summary, Tel. Thanks.
Just to confirm the key point - we believe that fans desperately need a 'Statement of Intent' from the Club regarding the short, medium and long-term strategy. Do we plan to gamble to beat relegation, are we planning for a League 1 future next season, are the Club considering administration and is there an active programme to attract potential financial suitors etc etc?
In order to draw this 'Statement of Intent' from the Club, we believe that the Fans' Forum needs to prepare a formal communication on your behalf to the Club covering these (and other) specific points, and we intend to produce a draft over the weekend and then finalise, deliver and widely publicise early next week. This should allow an opportunity for response at Wednesday's AGM and at other opportunities in the near future.
This is a good step forward and clarification on theses points could well help stop the split that is appearing in the clubs supporters. Providing the club agree and are clear in their response rather than a lot of political waffle because it is in the public domain.1 -
Great stuff guys and clearly some though has gone into the thrust of questions/statements.0

Thanks for the update Tel.
I'd be interested in seeing the draft report.1 -
Henry's suggested statement seems to cover it.0

Well firstly as a Fans Forum sceptic, I'm impressed by what you guys are trying to do with this Statement of Intent, and I will try to make a useful contribution. The following remark may not be that useful in itself, but I'll work on it. The thing is, if you present Henry's idea of the SoI, the directors will say, yes, exactly, that of course is our intent. And? So? What we are all looking for is a lot more detail on how they are going to carry out their intentions. So if you agree with that, we need to ask them to come back to us with that detail.
That's all I can manage for now...0 -
Thought that I’d bump this given the importance of tomorrow night.
A few weeks ago the Trust asked for questions to ask LdT. A list of what’s going to be asked might inspire some new questions.
Perhaps posting a question you want answered here might be picked up by our representatives tomorrow.2 -
I think the stuff mentioned by @Davidsmith on the main thread covers most of it for me.
“If they do have funding then ask Lieven tomorrow why the deal has never got done.
I believe there are other real bidders waiting for a deal at the correct price, but have been put off by price Aussies supposedly agreed to pay.
My question for Lieven would be why are you wasting your time with the Aussies who clearly don’t have the funding in place.”

2 Questions for the price of 1
Roland has presumably lost @£7M/£10M in the past 12 months.
How much more money is Roland prepared to lose in order to achieve his buying price ?
Does he understand that the longer he owns the club, the more he loses and the more foolish he looks ?4 -

Roland if you had invested a couple of million in the squad last season there was a good chance we'd be in the championship.
Roland why not invest a couple of million now if your still going to be here , there's a very good chance we can make the championship this season as well.
