The Trust, Our Responsibility.... The passion is still there. 23:04 - Nov 22 with 13520 viewsTheResurrection

Just a quick one from me on the last few days and as always I'll try to put a box office slant on the chaos we see in front of us.

For me the one thing that's shone through the most is how much we all care. I don't know how many new usernames have been created or people returned from other sites but it's clear the passion fights on in us all and this is the most positive thing to come out of what's fast become a bit of a farce.



This, as it always should have been, must be tapped into and properly nurtured. The Trust has a real chance to start again and whilst it's sad some of the old guard won't be there for this. It's also a great opportunity for new blood to go in with a relatively clean slate.

After many a text with Ux over the last few days I did tell him I'd apply for a position. Whilst considering it I told him it's been possible to effect change remotely, from the safety of my armchair, so what would be the point. But his argument of only being able to impact real change is by being on the inside, I'm ready to put that to the test.

I've been asked to apply, I've been goaded into applying and I've read many a post or feeling that I should never be even thinking about it.

We're all our own people and nobody is all black or white. I don't know how I can help or what's really involved but I've always had enough to say and never been afraid to say it.

When Tony Adams took over as Portsmouth manager after them winning the FA Cup and being so many years in the Premier League, that was a bad time to do so.

I'm thinking this is the opposite with joining the Trust right now, the only way is up, but how far up could it be taken.

I'll get round to the 250 words in the next day or so and I'm hoping one or two of the better posters on here will join me in applying.

The passion is still there, that's been clear to see, as Jay said, the fans just need someone to go in and bat for them, or at least talk to them.

We can do that.

And after many times over the years immediately looking back on some of our disagreements, and my childish and sometimes worse reposte's, I know I've been a cock on more than one occasion.

This site brings it all out, not an excuse, just the way it is and the way it's been. Being a bit of a naughty kid growing up I didn't get many compliments but my mother always used to say I would never bear a grudge. I kinda hope you, and others on here, have the same trait.

You'd have to really though, wouldn't you....

F*ck it, can't do much worse. No point if you're going to be a nodding dog though.

You'll be scrutinised more than any other board member has - I hope you have the appetite.

Congratulations on your decision, looking forward to reading your 250.

Over a number of years I've disagreed with many things you've posted and in particular your posting "style", however, I think you are doing something worthwhile and for that I salute you.

Can only echo the sentiments of all previous replies. Even if there have been disagreements your passion for the club is undoubted. I trust that more than anything PR men will spit out as crowd pleasing.

Fair play. I definitely don't see things all your way and likely never will, but if you've got the bllx to finally step up to back your words with actions, then genuinely best of luck to you.

The Trust can't keep on being invisible and one thing guaranteed with you it won't be.

You'll have my vote. Don't fack it up 😉

Oh,..Dave, what's occuring?

Good on you for stepping up.

Good luck Res- Your posts on this thread have shown that you have ‘insight’. I just thought you must be as hard as feck because of the thousands of punch ups you must have had in the course of your life!
We all disagree with each other from time to time- but if you get elected you really can’t scream at people (even Jenkins) if you think they’re Kent’s! Take a leaf out of Alan Lewis’ book- proper gent.
I’ll look for a ‘Chris’ on the ballot paper and vote for you- it should be an interesting time!
