According to the club website the next fans forum is on 20th February: https://www.cafc.co.uk/club/fans/fans-forumScoham said:https://www.castrust.org/2018/12/what-do-you-want-to-know-about-the-sale-of-the-club/
A Fans Forum meeting has been scheduled for Wednesday January 9th so that the club can update supporters on any progress towards a sale.
CAST will be present at the meeting. Please let us know any questions which you would like us to ask by writing to secretary@castrust.org.

Usual fire sale? What a load of bollocks.The_President said:I wonder if the usual January fire-sale of anyone who can bring in any money does happen if Bowyer might consider his future?. If you think about it, as @mametz pointed out, he has done extremely well with very limited funding, but he might think this is as far as he can take the team-and his 'value' to other clubs can only be at its highest now.

No, 9th January was always the date. It’s an extra one if (when) we haven’t been sold by then.Stig said:

I think Bowyer has red lines. I would think Taylor is being closely monitored by a few Championship clubs. Should he be sold I’m guessing Lee might walk. Bowyer has already shown enough to have his managerial stock being noticed.ElfsborgAddick said:
Bowyer would not leave regardless of who we sold. He's grateful to have this job.The_President said:I wonder if the usual January fire-sale of anyone who can bring in any money does happen if Bowyer might consider his future?.

I’d imagine the departure of Bauer or Aribo would smart but not be totally unexpected given there contract status but Taylor is a different matter.

Thanks for the clarification. Looks like a bit more smoke and mirrors from the club though - as if on 21st November there was a snowball's chance of selling by 9th Jan. Still we live in hope; here's to the Trust being a little premature on thisScoham said:

Most of them probably get as far as 'how much do you want for the club...........i'm sorry could you repeat that...........how much..................fuck that, good bye.'10 -
We can forget promotion if we sell Bauer, Aribo or any other first team player.11

I agree. You would have noticed the imbalance in the team without Aribo on Saturday that’s how delicate is our current squad.The Red Robin said:We can forget promotion if we sell Bauer, Aribo or any other first team player.

Hardly evidence of a fire sale though. Southampton sold VVD to Liverpool and Liverpool sold Coutinho to Barca last January, transfers happen in football, and generally from lower teams to higher teams.The_President said:cafcfan1990 said:

Most teams, challenging for promotion, try to come out of the transfer window at least as strong as they went into it, if not stronger.killerandflash said:

We very rarely come out of any transfer window as strong as we went in and I don't expect this window to be any different.15 -

One player in each window does not constitute a fire sale. Especially not when one player was too good and we got a very good fee, and the other wanted to go.The_President said:cafcfan1990 said:

If anyone's having a quiet day ?
Can you let the rest of us know who is left in the Jimmy Seed competition to name the day that Roland Duchatelet disappears down his bunker.
A lot of thought and research went into my prediction. I believe only a few went for 2019 or beyond. Who is Mystic Reg ?
Is there a North stand Nostradamus,
or a east stand egghead, Wakey, Wakey in the west stand.
Have any rules been broken with the complier of this competition doing a runner.
This has turned into a lottery.1 -

Unless you can get compelling evidence of parties interested, why sale hasn’t gone through and why Duchebag thinks he can sell at his asking price, when nobody else does, including potential buyers, then surely it’ll just be more smoke and mirrors.
Either tie yourselves to whatever is available and refuse to leave or kidnap LDT and insist he will be killed🙀 if takeover doesn’t go through within the next two weeks! That should do it.2 -
No I don't believe too much of what Robinson says. That's possibly true though, guess we will never know the truth, Robinson and Roland aren't two of the most honest people in the world.roseandcrown said:

Holmes was about the only reason I carried on going after giving up my season ticket and the cluster fuck that Cafc became.
I understand lots of adults only follow and can't think for themselves but giving Holmes stick. Jesus wept.8 -
A fire sale does not necessarily mean you have to sell more than one player - its simply a case of getting as much money in as possible in a short time- if you can achieve it in one transaction, then sobeit- Every January we have had to sell to get money in- the same as we have had the summer fire sale (Gudmonsson,Gomez,Konsa etc) To accuse it of being 'bollocks' , is , in my view, ignorant and stupid.cafcfan1990 said:
