Apologies to Fanny who got there before me!1

I'm going to move on to antique roadshow analogies.
If theoretically a belgiqie man were to buy a vase at a billionaires boot fair for 60 million. He gets it valued and they say the price is fair for an item of its history but with a new lick of paint and a small investment he could auction it off for a 100million+.
He comes back a few years later and he's ruined the paintwork by hiring all the wrong people to paint/restore it and dropped the value to 30 million max. The valuation expert tells him as such and yet he thinks he has done a magnificent job and puts it up for 70 million.
You cannot expect anybody to pay that much for a ruined product and it doesn't sell.
Thus I have no I'll wish on the aussies or any other potential buyer. In an auction situation where the owner is stubborn enough with a reserve it will never sell and neither will we.
But you all already know this. I just wanted to throw more obscure analogies out there.1 -

Yes but house auctions involving owner renovation caused damages haven't 😉

I’m interested to know if the meetings are cordial?
I realise that you don’t have Duchatalet sitting in front of you.....but surely you tell LDT that you don’t believe a word he is saying and then explain why?
I have this picture of you all just sitting there and listening to his load of crap and being polite.
Please tell me that isn’t so and that you show significant anger and leave him in no doubt that you see him simply as a mouthpiece for Duchatalet and therefore much of what he is saying cannot be believed.
He needs to be made to feel extremely uncomfortable and leave The Valley after each meeting knowing that we know he’s lying through his teeth on his bosses behalf.....plain and simple.
5 interested parties my arse!!!!
A bit of fist banging on tables wouldn’t go amiss, make him feel f’ing as awkward as possible, no matter how amiable and reasonable he may appear......I’m pretty sure he’s a smooth operator and as such would make some of those attending feel awkward in showing a degree of hostility towards him but enough is enough guys!
Finally, let him know loud and clear that St Truiden/ Belgium is firmly in our sights again, should it be deemed necessary.6 -
I've only been to one meeting but I think your image of the meetings is completely wrong.0

I know this meeting is re the takeover, but can someone ask what the fuck is going on with the management teams contracts. Please feel free to use the word fuck! (sorry admin). We're a month away from the end of the season for God sake!!!1

Hard questions are asked (at least they were when I was there) and statements are challenged.
Not sure what people expect? If attendees started banging tables or calling him a **** does makes us look good or confirm the regime's prejudices.
Some people will demand this , that and the other from behind a keyboard while at same time dismissing it all as a waste of time. And then want the minutes up in minutes.
I know that when LDT met another attendee who is very much involved with CARD (not CAST) he was surprised and a bit taken aback that that lifer was actually quite normal (debatable) and polite while giving LDT a hard time over his lies.
The way the graffiti nonsense was dismissed as not relevant at the last meeting and the way the plan to split ownership of club and ground was instantly condemned shows that at least some attendees are not passive.
The meetings will always be less than satisfactory under this regime but that is due to the regime not the fans.
But for now it is one, if not the only, way we can speak directly to and question the regime.25 -

I may be asking why they are wasting all our time when there is nothing of substance to tell us, assuming there is nothing of substance to tell us..
something on those lines at least2 -

7.30pm and still no minutes.
I reckon it's all a smokescreen and the Fans Forum are all having a nice meal at Craft on Roland
