No, you can say whatever you want.So shut up and say nothing? And you wonder why I have my doubts about The Trust and the merits of becoming a member............

Fair enough, I’ve often found people are more willing to share ideas if people don’t shout them down, end of the day we all want what’s best for the club.Stopped the club going down the spout, stabilised the finances, set up an enviable youth system, achieved more success on the pitch than in the preceding decade.
Things could be better, of course. Think we need to be open to ideas. The idea of having an idea isn't actually an idea though.
Debatable, very debatable.Stopped the club going down the spout, stabilised the finances, set up an enviable youth system, achieved more success on the pitch than in the preceding decade.

Matt RussellNot at all. But I did ask you and your silence is very revealing.
Make your mind up, put up or shut you said. Well I haven't got the ability to 'put up' so I suppose therefore I must 'shut up'.No, you can say whatever you want.
Right, but the trust oversaw all that, didn't they. You can't unbake a cake. There's no alternative reality to compare it to.Debatable, very debatable.
Stopped the club going down the spout. In it's initial years, yes. After that, I'd suggest one FA Cup draw (although a second one did quite a bit to help also) and four or five decent transfers have had more to do with stabalising the clubs finances than anything The Trust has done since.
Set up an enviable youth system. As I've said not such a long way back in this, I'd suggest that a damn sight more to do with the vision of Messers Tisdale and Tagg and the distribution of the aforementioned major incomes by the club board than The Trust.
Achieved more success on the pitch than in the preceding decade, well you might not like to admit to this one but that has more to do with having the stability of one man in charge for ten years and the ability he had of doing his job. But he, like all things, went stagnant after such a long period and change was needed.
OK, sounds like a sound conclusion... Go with that.Make your mind up, put up or shut you said. Well I haven't got the ability to 'put up' so I suppose therefore I must 'shut up'.
As dose having a season ticket or buying a box for games.I8cornwall - it's an idea.
Trouble as I see it is that it principally benefits those with plenty of disposable cash.
There's a difference to overseeing it and being a major influence on it. The major influences on most of it (because nobody can influence a cup draw) were Tisdale and Tagg. It was there vision of the youth development that saw the development of the likes of Grimes, Watkins and Nicholls that bought in the transfer fees that stabalised the club.Right, but the trust oversaw all that, didn't they.
