I know little regarding legal matters, however surely posting all this stuff on a public forum is very silly when there is the real likelihood of criminal and/or civil cases being brought against you in the near future over this matter.

It sounds as if you and your lawyer feel you are in the clear. I sincerely hope he/she is wrong and you are financially ruined once the inevitable legal battles are over.

exactly but no one has said who it might be. If its to go after the sellers then its rubbish to be honest. Once again people just spouting off without thinking.

The articles in question are to do with swansea city 2002 ltd not the club. The change was lodged on the 4th august. At that date only levien, kaplan and jenkins were directors. It used to be jenkins and katzen but katzen had resigned prior to the change. After the change martin morgan was appointed so good luck to pc plod trying to arrest levien and kaplan. They will have more luck with jenkins however.


You may not have looked closely at Companies House (AT WORST YOU ARE SPREADING MISINFORMATION)

From Companies House the new articles were 'lodged' on the 4th August.

https://s3-eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/document-api-images-prod/docs/MHogB2AawWIwdRf

However if you take a closer look they were 'adopted by special resolution passed on 21st July 2016'. So the special resolution must have been signed on 21st July 2016 and lodged with Companied House on 4th August 16.

All the 'selling' shareholders except the Trust signed up to changing the articles. (Swansea LLC, the Yanks Holding Company is not a party to changing the articles).

The sale also went through on 21st July 1026.

This means the selling shareholders (except the Trust) changed the articles (in considerable favour of the Yanks) immediately before the sale. The Yanks would not have acquired the company without the articles being changed in their favour prior to the sale.

If they did not give notice to the Trust of a special resolution to change the Articles and if that is a criminal offence in company law - then the selling shareholders have committed a criminal offence.

If it is only a civil offence not to have given notice - then they have committed a civil offence.

DIrectors also have a duty to 'obey' the company's constitution. If they have not given notice to the Trust of a resolution to change the articles they have not fulfilled that duty. Hence criminal and/or civil actions can be taken against Huw Jenkins and other directors.

I haven't spread any misinformation. I merely quoted dates as to when the articles were filed and who were directors at the time. As i said previously i hadn't read them so didn't know when the new ones were adopted.
I cant comment as to whether an offence has taken place as 1. I dont know the ins and outs and 2. If i did im not qualified to do so.

All ive asked in this thread is who were directors when it was done. If it is civil then it will be down to the directors i presume of which there were 2.

This is becoming oh so like it always has been with the Trust...

We all want a cohesive, functioning and efficient way to co-exist with the present owners, or any owners for that matter, but "building bridges"? And acclaiming that to the world like the cat who's got the cream is an extremely worrying development.

Does any Swans fan, sorry, let me try again,. does any Swans fan apart from Neath Jack actually believe the American owners haven't got exactly what they need?

And like with Huw Cooze beforehand, they've got us exactly where they want us.

The Trust, it seems, are enjoying the new relationship a bit too much. The US owners fronted by the charming Pearlman are able to throw them the odd bone so the Trust are able to proclaim some minor victories and alternately one of them plus family gets the VIP treatment in the Directors Box...

Oh, and they are also kept in the loop about potential new signings and all of a sudden we, the real fans, are left with more sitting duck patsy's when what we really need is some guts and teeth and a respectful arms length relationship, which would genuinely be of true benefit for the supporters of the City's football club.

We've been here before and whilst we've had some notable sacrificial lambs we are still largely left wth the same old regime.

Is it 9 of the 12 that are still there that were there through the debacle of the last few years?

I like Phil and Stu, I have met with them and they are good guys, intelligent too who can both hold a good conversation, so I am not on a witch hunt here but I would have really liked to have seen some tangible change by now and not least some progress with action against the disgusting behaviour of the selling shareholders and the resulting scenario.

They have been lulled into yet another false sense of security and sucked in by the American psychobabble and all I can say is shame on you.

Let's face it, we are never going to see genuine change with the present Trust Board, we've just got to get bloody used to it.

Yes Director's box tickets home and away.

......that's what seems important- don't worry about £20m at stake. If Trust lost the tickets in the Director' box (home and away) legal action would be started immediately. Should also add that to the mission statement of the Trust protecting Director's box tickets home and way.

Sorry for sounding flippant but that's what seems important to the Trust (and very alarming)- when statements like building bridges are released.

Time for building bridges is when Trust has won the legal action and protected the £20m at stake -that's what it is set up to do.

You are right, as is Chris, it's about integrity, his point regards the free seats could be a penny chew stolen or £20 million to me. It's a lack of transparency. No matter the subject.

We still await the pathway of legal action, when and how etc ...
Not until then will we know the actual mindset of the trust.
It seems to be unknown at the moment, my concern is their desire to cozy up to the villains of the piece, as if we will conveniently forget.

If the Trust don't take action against the previous and possibly current owners then I'm sorry to say their days are numbered. Have they got the stomach for a fight? I don't think so from what I've seen.

I really hope to be proved wrong and that their legal advice enables them to take on the greedy despicable fuc kwits. Phil S seems to be an honourable man who has worked hard for what he believes in and I'm sure he feels betrayed by many. That's being the case it's time now for him to show that he has the balls for a battle. It's not time to be making best buddies with the very people who have shafted you behind your back. Go with it and you will notice a surge of support for yourself and the Trust. Do nothing, sit back and just go with the flow and you will have lost everything including your reputation.

As things stand now, the Trust has no future. Do something positive and constructive and you can change that perception. Got for it, win or lose: fight the fight and don't let them treat you like a doormat as that's what's happening now.

The Trust needs a shake up but a proper one and not the token gesture we've been appeased with.

You can feel the bitterness in people's written voices on here and this all stems from the terrible mistakes of the last few years.

Well the same people are still there doing the same things now.... Building bridges!!!?

Most fans don't know who the Trust Board consists of, even though most of them have been on there the whole time the Trust has existed. The ones we do know have made it like their own little boys club.

In the past elections have come and gone and nobody has cared, who was up for them, why and how they even knew about them. Thus elections have been nothing more than a farce.

But when the leaders of the little boys club wanted someone in particular they just co-opted them.

They have made it very personal to just a few and let's face it they haven't had the results to justify how much of a closed operation it's been.

Of course the usual suspects will argue some of these points and on technicalities they'd have some grounds, but in reality and looking at the big picture the way I've described it is very apt.

So what needs to happen, in my opinion, is for real change to be enforced.

And the present lot need to make it happen.

They need to put the Trust on the map, make sure the Trust are asked for their opinion on everything, be loud and proud; they should adopt a formula for more fans, a select few but more than the same old 12 every year, every time to make decisions or at least provide evidence that these fans' views have been canvassed; then they need to advertise for their positions and revitalise the whole operation.

We shouldn't be afraid of change, we should be afraid of standing still as we have been looking on from the sidelines for too long.

It's time to make things happen and nip the cosying up that's happening all over again in the bud.

These aren't drastic changes, they just need a little impetus to make things happen.
