    Pretty sure.

    You'll get a note of the meeting from the Trust after the meeting. I'm not on Twitter so don't know if the other attendees have given any feedback on the previous meetings. I recall one person did but was then removed from the group for saying how he felt about the owners.

    I'm not upset the organisers of the protests have missed out. I expect the Allams to try and get the meeting to say there should be no further protests and accept Ehab's concessions scheme. Whether they do is largely irrelevant because the people at the meeting are not organising the protests. The representatives were not elected by the supporters in the various stands. They volunteered and then picked by the club. With the exception, of course, of the Trust who have to be there.

    Why would anybody who has at least half a pea for a brain accept Ehab concession scheme?

    Just to be clear, it’s the Allams who have driven a wedge between fans and not ****y comments like that?

    Come on OLM you’re better than that. And no, it’s not bantz.

    FTFY

    I would personally rather there was a cross section of fans represented. A group of random individuals is far more likely to address issues that matter to most people than a group of individuals from certain groups with certain ideals/agendas. That's not knocking any group or their agendas, that's just basic humanity.

    I sort of agree with you that a group of random individuals would be better BUT it is all too easy in these situations for them to be overawed. Then how and to who will these individuals convey the message?
    Much better to have a representative of a group (who can be held to account) and a known outlet of information.

    Both would be ideal, which is what we have here. A trust member and 12 fans.

    One of the first things to discuss should be The Lost Upper.

    I think it's far from ideal that hardly anyone knows who the 12 fans are, and bar a couple who are there on behalf of the OSC and Senior Tigers, they don't appear to be representing anyone or have any kind of mandate.

    It's certainly not the biggest problem with the group to date, but it doesn't seem right.

    I can think of a different word than suspects but kids might be reading.

    Thanks, the site is really designed for sports clubs. This is a compromise on the menu and team page, between 1st team or a team nickname. If we put Hull City, it would use Hull City AFC Hull City on some of the pages and to be honest Hull City AFC 1st team did not look well either. If you look at every other part of the site, the team name is Hull City.
    The site is still being worked on as the amount of content that it can absorb is staggering and we cannot keep up.
