Salford faithful is Louie

I hope it's a good mixture of all fans and that they are listened to

Well done to those that haven’t been chosen. I don’t know anybody who has been, but it wouldn’t surprise me if it was those who bombard Koukash and Vickers on Twitter.

Hopefully as has been mentioned above, it’s a mixture of fans across a range of ages and backgrounds.

As Iain has stated I think that the terms of reference need to be clear. I am not an expert on company law, but I would want assurances, in writing, that if I was to be involved in any decision making I would not be classed as a Shadow Director, or De Facto Director, and all the implications that go with it.

Applied didnt get a acknowledgement or response , not really surprised

I applied,received an email saying that I had been unsuccessful.
I wish the twelve who have been successful all the best.

Let's all hope they are not '12 members.'

I got an e-mail to say I'd been successful - looking forward to it, and helping take Salford forward.

I got turned down. Their loss

It’s a good idea in principle but the 12 members will have no authority to ultimately determine a decision. There could be a situation where the 12 members are 100% in agreement but if the Doc or Mr Vickers aren’t they will be powerless to act. (Which may not be a bad thing)



My view is the club are looking for a dozen unpaid foot soldiers (with too much spare time on their hands) to help with the promotion, administration and communication within the club. I'd imagine some of the work will involve door-to-door leaflet posting and promoting the club in local shopping centres. It could potentially be a real help assuming the right people have been selected.

Anything to report from the first meeting yesterday? Not heard anything.

The silence is deafening on this, I'd have thought that we'd have had lots of publicity surrounding such a novel idea.

There may have been confidential matters discussed but I hope this is not the case. A bulletin containing salient points should be possible and would be appreciated.

Not particularly great that the Club wants to involve the fans and keep them in the loop, but then has a Starchamber of select fans who've told the rest of us nothing. There needs to be some kind of minutes provided online so that all fans can see and then make suggestions to the twelve disciples. Who hopefully would then put other fans points forward. At the moment, it's the twelve fans own ideas and opinions being expressed and we know nothing of the validity of them, or if they are representative.

All I've seen so far, is people patting themselves on the back on Twitter.

I think having minutes would be a great idea for all the fans, i know someone who is on the board of members i will put this forward Butcher!

If there are no structures in place for fans to feed ideas in to the Board Members, or the Board Members to feed back to the fan base what has happened at the Board Meetings, then it can't possibly be a representative fans Board. Perhaps a List of Board Members would be useful as a starting point.

Perhaps a statement of just what the aims of the board are would be a good starting point?

Chairmen always had YES men on their board

If you all know hitman handle then message him..

I don't.

Besides, the point was, to have a 'ways and means' of interacting with the Club via the fans reps. Nobody even knows who they all are. Let alone having something in place so that we can see what is up for discussion and make any valid points.

If any of the twelve are reading this, you might want to start by starting a Twitter account just for discussions between other fans and those selected. You also might want to get whoever does(n't) update the the main website with 'An Introduction to the fans reps' with links to the Twitter account I mentioned and/or an email address for people to send in ideas. You might want to get them to set-up a registration where people can register their email addresses to get updates and goings-on with regards to upcoming and previous meetings. I'm sure the Club could just let you use the current emailing list and do a blanket email to all registered Salford fans to keep them in the loop.

There's a start for you...

Butcher why are you not on the board!
P's I know Hitman so this message will be put forward.

Someone sent me a screen grab of a picture taken from anti social media and I have to admit I didn't really recognise anyone, would have thought Shirley was a cert along with KOTS and maybe one or two others. There lies the potential flaw in asking people to send in one paragraph, if you have the best idea but can't condense it properly then your idea is wasted.

If there is anyone from here who has been selected then maybe a good idea would be too say you are and then invite (I know the amount or cack you'll get amongst the real ideas) messages either too a sticky on here or via PM.

Give us a chance it was first meeting and an introduction for me too a new venture , I'm as surprised as any for being picked and I know not everyone will no who I am but you will of seen me at home and away games, and I'm not a yes woman......and it will be 15 members in total and I'm sure all names will be available...oh yes and there are Gingers at rugby...that's a clue to my identity.

A woman and ginger

GT has two profiles shocker

i use the same twitter name as this forum, if mr butcher or mr michigan want to message me with any issue
thats not a problem. also will be outside the fans bar sunday as normal, why not ask me then?
