    Reading the link and the meetings that have taken place it doesn't necessarily follow. Though there aren't that many clubs with supporters trusts. Don't forget our current owners could interpret the away fans initiative as meaning the money should be spent on the away fans of other clubs.

    As an example of reading things and interpretations lways like the story, supposedly true, of the chap in the Navy up for promotion. His superior officer wrote a recommendation ending " All in all, a capable officer who has been known to return on board drunk".
    The officer saw this and went in and complained he wasn't happy with it. Why, asked his superior officer. He said he objected to the use of the word drunk as it would prejudice the promotion board's impression of him and harm his chances. Is that one word all you object to he was asked. Yes, he replied. Fine, said the superior officer and rewrote it this time ending with " All in all a capable officer who has been known to return on board sober".
    Some no doubt would be happier with the second recommendation.

    Askew's Hair, for one did. Or, to be accurate, presumed like some others that if it was a Saudi it had to be a prince.

    Did not the erstwhile Mr Burns proffer the idea a Prince was involved? Or was he just speculating?

    Speaking to someone who has spent a lot of time with Ehaw recently, he reckons he has been to Denver 3 times in the last 6 weeks so there could be something in this American '3rd bidders' rumour. I know he went to Red Rocks to a wedding and to a Polo convention over there but 3 times in 6 weeks seems a little excessive. They said he was strongly hinting at some Denver sports owners buying us. Could be crap, like the MKM rumour seems to have been (not made up by me, might I add, I was mearly the messenger) but we will see.

    How do they recognise them?

    Do they just wave at them or do they provide funding?

    Must be loads of reports of all the meetings they have had with the owners then. And all the changes they have brought about.

    That’s all very well OLM, but can you please provide a spreadsheet showing the Trusts listed in order of population in the geographical area that the majority of their likely fanbase resides in... or that information is meaningless.

    I must have missed the post where someone in here claimed that all the meetings must be minuted and must bring about demonstrable change


    ...unless you’ve lost the argument that was being played out so just decided to move the goal posts instead?

    Not that many though, if you think of how many football teams they are in England.

    There's 20 divisions of them in Hull alone, and none of them have trusts.
