Do we want a secure forum for private discussion on any possible takeover plans?

One where off topic or abusive posts are removed would be purposeful. Keep the main forum for that!

Cant see the point myself, there isn't anything that would be discussed that would need to be kept from IOR, who want shot of the club as it stands, and its them you are going to do business with anyway.

In addition to which, as we have seen already, if the club wants to know what's going on all they need to do is get someone to register for it and tell them.

No point at all- it's talk to IOR or don't bother.

Fair point Chip.

There have been quite a few posts about a fans takeover and lots of arguing. For this to succeed there needs to be a figurehead, one person to lead, who has the right expertise and the passion to be take it on. Has this person emerged yet?
Without someone willing and capable of taking it on we can talk all we want but nothing will happen.
I'm not the person to lead but like quite a few here am willing to give money. Carry on spouting bullshit if you want but until we find someone who is prepared to lead this thing, it won't happen.

I heard through the grapevine that Peter Harris is looking for a job?

Can you please clarify which one of us you are accusing of spouting bullshit ?

I apologise, that was a rude shorthand way of saying there are numerous posts talking around the subject without any real proposals for direct action.
I really hope someone takes this thing on. I really think the majority here are ready and willing to rally around a concrete proposal for taking over the club. So far though, no-one seems to have the expertise to say, this is what we are going to do.

I do hope someone emerges chip. Good to hear there are people capable of taking it up.

Hear we go

another thread, why do we always resort to this ? No figure head required at this stage , what is required is a non figure head , someone who gives shit instead of posting continuous crap : Tomorrow I have set wheels in motion to actually try and do something . Millhouse Inn at 2.00 pm , A discussion ? Some interested parties who will try and get our club back ? Interested ?
