The bank loan was DEFINTIELY repaid from the first tranche of money. Incompetent as Bank of Scotland may have been shown to be over the last few years, they definitely made sure their loan was repaid before releasing their charge over BV.

| Quote ="Chairman Miaow"TRB said: "We is the Trust. We ask a lot of questions!"
Now, I was under the impression that the trust had not yet been formed. However, it appears that the same old rose-tinted brigade are busy getting their feet under the table already. I had hoped that a Supporters Trust would hold the club to a little more stringent level of scrutiny than previously, but it's lining up to be more of the same if the usual suspects are allowed to be starstruck spokesmen, go-betweens, hangers-on, etc.
Are the little knowing winks supposed to be indicative of the new openness and straightforward communication we have been promised from the Trust?'"
Miaow, give it a rest, I don't know what sort of crusade you think you're on but you're wide of the mark and it's irritating.
We is the Trust refers to the people who have steered things this far, there are about 14 people involved who are trying to get answers on behalf of the fans.
When the Trust is legally formed there will be a vote, one each per member, to form an Executive Committee.
If you want a say why not put your hat in the ring and say it up front and in the proper manner otherwise you undermine yourself with the silly snipes at people who have put time, effort and money into trying to create something good, useful and needed.

| Just to add a bit to the mix, especially to alleviate the concerns of those who seem to have concerns about who comprises the Trust Board.
We held our first AGM of Bullbuilder - The Bradford Rugby League Supporters Society Ltd - this evening. This is OUR Supporters' Trust, and we pretty well adopted the Supporters' Direct "Model Rules" when we set it up early last year. And followed the Supporters' Direct model election policy and rules.
I presume your Trust will adopt pretty well the same rules and policies - you'll have to if Supporters' Direct are to sponsor your registration.
In that case, know that under those Rules EVERY ONE of the initial Board (or "Executive Committee, if you like) HAD to stand down and stand for-election. By the members. One man one vote. First AGM, every one of us. No exceptions.
If you do not like your Board/Executive Committee, all you have to do is to use your vote. And, preferably, put yourself up instead.
Supporters Direct are VERY strong on ensuring democracy is paramount, and a clique cannot hold sway against the members' wishes. Trust me - I speak from experience. Indeed, they are little short of obsessive about it. No, they ARE obsessive about it.
I have just read what "The Clan" wrote above. If your Trust is set up anything like ours, "The Clan" is spot on.

| If lets say there are 3000 very keen Trinity fans who attend home matches no matter what, and then another 1000 who sometimes come and watch depending on pre match events, how the team is playing etc. Then it would be fantastic and a reasonable target, IMO, to attract 2000 Trinity fans to join the Trust, Lets say the Trust members vote to set the anual joining fee at say £ 20. That would generate £ 40,000 p.a. That buys a lot of shares if the new company offers shares or it buys several of the very best under 16 players for our academy. Either way the Trust becomes very influential.

The figures you aspire to for potential members is the stuff of cloud-cuckoo-land.
I would guess that you may get between 100 or 200 members.

Not really; this has a nice circularity to it, since when TRB said "We is the Trust", he was in fact responding to a question from me, when I asked "who is we?" in response to one of his earlier posts.
The Clan is therefore directly quoting TRB and as such, is not guilty of crimes against grammar; the defence rests your honour.
Meanwhile, all this talk of voting out Trust rep's and the formation of cliques etc seems rather premature, considering it's in response to one poster's over the top comments; to quote the great philosopher Michael Winner - calm down dear!

| I stand corrected! Apologies all round.
could be a good marketing tool though to unlock a whole new demographic, the "floating urban/ghetto rugby league fan"

| this topic of late reminds me of a joke
white man and a black man in the pub arguing over what colour jesus was the white man says " jesus was white" the black man argued no " jesus was black" a few pints later still arguing the white man says i bet you a 1,000 pounds he was white the blackman accepts the bet but says " how are we going to find out" the white man replies we will go to church and ask him.
so off they pop to church and they begin to pray and ask jesus can you come to us and settle our arguement were you black or were you white , all of a sudden a bright light appears ,is that you JESUS and a booming voice says "IT IS MY SONS " they ask the question can you tell us where you black or were you white and the booming voice replies " YOU ARE WHAT YOU ARE MY SONS".
with this the white man shreeks with joy and tells the black man " get in you owe me a 1,000 quid jesus was white" the black man "says how do u make that out " and the white man says " well if he was black he would have said YOU IS WHAT YOU IS "
