Supporters Group News New Group Statement 28/02/23

A well balanced and considered response by the trust . In sharp, glaring contrast to the very terse and minimal statement issued by the club...... that reeks of the arrogant, grudging contempt and disregard that Martin appears to have for every single fan of SUFC.
I utterly detest that man for he's done to our club, but even his most fervent fanboys must be able to grit their teeth and admit that he could have issued a much better communication than that. ? **** poor as usual by Ron...... 1 out of 10.
 
No it didn't. We tried to arrange it many times but they never got back to us to confirm a date. Baring in mind it was their idea, it was a bit odd.
Odd???

That instantly makes me think…….

Pot.Kettle.Black.

You’re really obsessed by this Ron ‘fanboys’ and ‘stooges’ thing aren’t you. Again, I can’t see anyone on here coming out 100% in defence of Martin. Just varying levels of disapproval and some saying it’s not all his doing. Nobody thinks Ron’s a saint and I’ve not seen anyone say they want him to continue indefinitely as chairman.
 
And some of us don't keep repeating the same old thing over and over and over and over and over and over and over again until it makes one look stupid. It happened as we thought it would do without losing any sleep or any undue stress. Keep control of one's little fingers, engage brain and chill out, it'll work out in the end (hopefully!!!!).

It's not just from the Trust though, it's all supporter groups' united response. Well, almost all.
 
Out of interest what do the trust plan to do with the £40k when received back? Considering a large amount of it was donations (to help staff etc) rather than their own cash.
Blow it all on an end of season promotion party sounds reasonable, pending play off final success 🥴 🥳

I do hope those within Supporters Groups' realise and respect that their views aren't always necessarily representative of a large number of fans. Sometimes reading the statements and reading the Echo it isn't clear.

There is at least one prolific poster who has never criticized Ron for anything whilst often blaming fans for their demands and expectations or mocking them for hysteria.

Are you sure that poster has never criticised Ron? Maybe he has but you need to read between the lines. Ron’s made mistakes, huge mistakes, we all know this .. but there’s other factors at play. Once the stadium is finally delivered I’ll be amazed if you find anyone who thinks the future is Ron Martin.

Hmmm, a poster with a misspelt username springs to mind.
 
Was there a follow up to the dismissal of the WUP meeting and video?

Would just be interested in the groups thoughts around the WUP dismissal, Kacper situation and next steps to pushing RM away from the club…
