I reckon there is definitely a time limit on the NDA. If we go up they get paid off and nowt said, they **** off and we get on with the championship, if we don't go up they get paid (less) off and a few (cleverly worded, non liable) words are said. Either way, there is no chance that Donald or Methven have any say in what goes on here now. Just my opinion of course.I could have read him wrong but Magnus alluded to something like that earlier so that'll do for me. Not that it matters, I've hardly given the previous regime a 2nd thought til all this bollox appeared. Its like 2 bald men fighting over a comb ffs.
To be fair, RAWA ask questions that are put to them by other supporters. Lots have been asking about whether Donald and Methven still have an input (especially after Methven was photographed with sartori) so naturally it gets brought up. If no one wanted it asked it wouldn't be, but in order to be representative of the members they've got to ask questions that people want answered. If they chose not to and something went wrong down the line they'd be accused of cosying up to the owners, not asking awkward questions and just wanting access and tea and biscuitsEmbarrassing that RAWA are demanding answers on the ownership, KLD has barely been here a year and already people are coming up with conspiracy theories. He’s the owner trust him and give the lad a chance, he’s made big steps so far, RAWA are coming across like them muppets over the water
Fair enough but surely they should take into account the share percentage which makes it clearly obvious that KLD is the owner and has the overall say. It’s a foolish question to ask and tars the fan base with the same brush. It comes across as the fans aren’t happy and wants answers when really it’s a tiny percentage of half witsTo be fair, RAWA ask questions that are put to them by other supporters.

Must admit I don't see much wrong with the answers that were given. As long as KLD has the majority and the final say then that's fine. In a time where the Crouch report is suggesting clubs should be transparent with fans it does seem a bit daft not to just confirm the percentages mind. It was worth asking the question but aye, personally it reads like kld has over 50% so I'm not quite sure why some seem to be taking real issue with it. I would like to see Donald and Methven at 0% mind, but we all knew that wasn't the case at this timeFair enough but surely they should take into account the share percentage which makes it clearly obvious that KLD is the owner and has the overall say.

I do think January is huge mind. If we can't get up, and people still think Donald and Methven are involved, and the novelty of being allowed to attend again has gone, I think they'd see a fairly large drop in season card sales, which of course would massively affect our chances. They really need to get it right to keep a lot of people believing in the direction we're going and that things have really changed. That's where the lack of transparency is a bit annoying, you feel the relationship between the club and the fans isn't perfect at the minute and this kind of thing doesn't help. Do agree that some are going overboard about it thoughThat's the important bit.
Give it time....
Good post. The fan led review places more responsibility on the fan groups. People would be better off joining up and influencing the questioning imo. Their influence will only grow (again, just my opinion)To be fair, RAWA ask questions that are put to them by other supporters. Lots have been asking about whether Donald and Methven still have an input (especially after Methven was photographed with sartori) so naturally it gets brought up. If no one wanted it asked it wouldn't be, but in order to be representative of the members they've got to ask questions that people want answered.

I'm not a fan of RAWA - they seem to think they speak for ALL fans
Twatter going mental with people all clinging on to the Echo's report of SAFC "refusing to confirm ownership percentages" - it's got **** all to do with anyone as it's a Private Limited Company. It's baffling how eager some people are to see the worst in every situation
That prick Weatherspoon doesn't help either
I wondered about that too. Would make sense if it was just a typo at the start - 'Charlie and Donald are...', instead of 'Charlie and Juan are...'.'SD read a statement from the ownership group.
Charlie an juan are both minority shareholders of the football club.'
'In response to a question from MMc (RAWA), SD confirmed he, KS, Kyril Louis-Dreyfus,
Maurice Louis-Dreyfus, Patrick Treuer, Igor Levin, Juan Sartori, Simon Vumbaca and
Dave Jones attend board meetings.'
'DR asked if minority owners attend meetings. SD said minority shareholders have never
attended a board meeting.'
So according to Steve Davison Juan Sartori is a minority shareholder and minority shareholders have never attended a board meeting.
Yet the same Steve Davison confirms that Juan Sartori attends board meetings!
There is something odd about this.
I reckon thats all it is. Sartori is on the board so will be at board meetings.I wondered about that too. Would make sense if it was just a typo at the start - 'Charlie and Donald are...', instead of 'Charlie and Juan are...'.
While waving his dick aboutI mean it’s shocking that he didn’t just say “we’ve got loads of money and can buy anyone”!!!
