Happy days as long as the momentum keeps running. Can officially stop looking over our shoulder at Arbroath results and look up the table. Not officially clear of the automatic drop zone, but unless Arbroath win by 9.25 goals in each of their last 4 fixtures, we should be fine to chase Queens down. Massive 6 pointer at Hampden next weekend.

A deserved 3 points yesterday which are absolutely needed, but let’s not get carried away. A narrow win over a part time team, who are bottom of the league and played a percentage of the game with 10 men. Hardly emphatic. We also find out yesterday that the Trust want fans to give them money, to in turn give it to the Club in turn for no more voice than they already have ????!!!!! All going great .

That’s not correct.

The Trust is seeking to increase the voice fans have in the way the club is run and potentially have a seat on the Board. When they decide to use the funds raised to buy shares, they have said they will only do so if they get commitments from the club.

I think you will find it is correct. The Trust want money to increase their shares. That money goes to the Club. The Trust already have a relatively significant shareholding, which does/should provide the voice/influence they refer to in their statement. They just don’t seem to be using it effectively at the moment.

I will keep this train of comment for the other thread.
