Does it actually do anything?

I looked on Wikipedia and this is what it says:

In British sports, a supporters' trust is a formal, democratic and not-for-profit organisation of fans who attempt to strengthen the influence of supporters over the running of the club they support.

Ours seems to run bars, raise funds and have lofty goals.

And has two representatives in the club board giving a voice to fans with the day to day running of the club…. So, yeah it does.

Their turn in the stocks is it?

They are all volunteer Town fans doing mostly good things in their own time. What more do you want?

Did they have a say in the sacking of Hurst and the appointing of Artell?

And will they have a say in whether we sack Artell or not.

So they have nothing at all to say about the Colchester postponement or our management predicament?

Then they are as much to blame as the owners for the pile of excrement we are standing in.

This assumes it was an obviously poor appointment. It wasn’t at the time and from my recollection a good majority of fans were happy with it.

It’s turned out to be, for whatever reason. Hindsight is a wonderful thing, not available to people having to make decisions like it is people commenting on them months later.
