And there’s not a mention of the result of the Trust vote in any of the usual media outlets.

We have one media group covering the papers in Wales and it's cr@p.

Instead of doing some actual investigative journalism like what Der Spiegel has done they'd rather do articles on what's going to happen to Jamie's Italian and 'things you remember growing up in Upper Cwmtwrch.' Utter Drivel.

but like you said Staggering but not surprising.

That’s deliberate. For about a year now anything that relates to potential legal issues has only been emailed or posted directly to members on legal advice. It’s not posted on the website any social media that is open the non members. Of course they invariably end up on here and elsewhere but that’s not done by the trust so we can’t be held responsible when it happens.

This isn't about potential legal issues though is it.

It's a monumental decision, that should be shouted from the rooftops.

Or is there an option that the legal route will not be seen through?

Everything is explained in some detail on the communication you will have received from the Trust before you voted.

Taps nose.

Behave will you, this isn't about Trust members, it's about every single living, breathing, Swansea City fan in the world. It isn't an exclusive Mayfair club. Not all fans can afford to join the Trust, no matter how insignificant the membership fee may seem to you.

Edit, you can have the last word. I don't wish to drag this thread down to the usual nonsense on here.

It’s 83p a month. Trying to use that to make out I’m being elitist is pathetic.

You’re just irritated because you tried to attack the Trust and it was explained to you that the method of communication was deliberate.

If we win & the Trust get's a wedge (less legals of course) can we vote for a share out between the members ;-)

People in the Swansea valley, which includes Upper Cwmtwrch, would have a better upbringing than a inner city suburb.

Of course it’s about potential legal issues. It’s the outcome of a consultation asking members to authorise the board to take legal action.

I can’t agree with you on this. The communications around this are planned and executed based on firm and detailed legal advice. There’s no exclusivity or deliberate exclusion going on apart from the fact that on this we’ve been told to communicate with members only. I’ve no idea what that Mayfair bollocks is all about.

Yes, that a decision has been made to take legal action.

I get that things were not for public broadcast in the lead up to this, when you were trying to build bridges etc. But a decision has been made now? Or, as I posed earlier, can legal action still be taken back off the table?

I'm genuinely interested into the thinking of "keeping it quiet" now? Not trying to be an arse.

I didn’t think you were. And neither am I being when I say (like Lisa did) that the next steps in the event of a vote for option one are outlined in detail in the consultation papers that accompanied the vote. Now if you take this as the trust being exclusive that’s up to you I can’t put that detail on here for the same reason as we’re doing the communications around this in the way that we are. Someone else with access might want to put it on here and if they do the trust can’t control that. But I can’t.
