Directors Forum - Tues 24th May

Our leading shareholder not attending - cowarding out.

And now season tickets only.

Scared

No sign of the elusive Mr Jackson either. What is the point of this if Jenkins & Jackson aren't going to or won't attend?
All we will get from this is a load of waffle from NC lies from JN & anybody disagreeing will be offered out to the carpark by SP.
The (mis) Trust will toe the party line as usual.

Still makes me chuckle that one, what a Club!

Jenkins should definitely be there. Whether he does anything or not is irrelevant, he is leading shareholder so should be there.

Maybe I’ve had a limbotomy but I got a carers season ticket this morning. I’m ready to be shot 😂. I was tempted at the trust meeting via the DD route.

Whatever the agenda, a bit of Glasnost needs to be the order of the day for a while.

Whining over old coal, and ' the debt ' ain't going to take us forward.

Take the politics monkey off Simpson's back for now.

I’m sure it will be a night of inspiration and forward thinking

Yep! And how SP loaned the club money years ago.

I’m looking forward to the raffle, thankfully it’s organised by cusg and not the club.

I'm not a ST holder therefore can't pose a question. Given we have been told John Jackson attends Holdings Board meeting, I'd be asking how do these meetings pan out?

Does JJ sit in silence for the meeting then at the end AJ tentitavely asks if he can discuss the debt? Does JJ say "No" then leaves the building until the next time.

I am genuinely astonished how the debt can be avoided as a subject IF JJ attends Holdings Board meetings?

Could somebody ask please?

Only half of the holdings board willing to meet fans…

Tells you the level of respect Carlisle owners have for fans.

CUOSC, UF and fans should be kicking off… imo cuosc should refuse to attend if Jenkins isn’t, fans deserve to here from the club chairman imo

Can someone also ask what their definition of 'temporary' is.

The problem is, they've burned the 'rumour' bridge.

Even if they did tell everyone " we are in the late stages of negotiations to sell the Club, but have signed another NDA" no one would believe it.

At the end of most seasons Blue Horizon, Pizza Shop Owners, Billionaires has been the order of the day, to shut us all up for a while,' ne mare lad ' !

A long winded monologue on the Club's finances from Nigel to bore the pants off everyone, is also wearing thin.

They need to get off the fence, set some objectives and ambitious goals, let us know what they are, and how they will be achieved, then we can all buy into it.

So ,the no 1 question should be " what are the expectations for CUFC in the 2022/23 season", and No 2, "How will they be achieved"

How those questions are answered, will let us know whether it's fluff and bluster, or has been thought through and planned.

Bxxxcks to the rest of the nonsense. By bringing it up, we just bog ourselves down, the let them off the hook, as they babble on, and tell us nowt.

Andrew Jenkins is a disgrace.

"Not his thing." Blah blah blah. "He is always willing to speak to individuals or small groups." Blah blah blah. We've heard it all before!

If you are the largest shareholder and are responsible for making the biggest decisions affecting the club, then you must front up.

Should be 1st come 1st served, not season ticket holders only. Another shan to add to their collection.

This is probably the last forum before the 20th anniversary of when Stevey P briefly lent the club a few quid to finance Stuart Green’s loan

I’m having a commemorative goblet of gratitude engraved to mark the occasion, if anyone would like to chip in?

If we get a move on we could present it to him at the forum

It’s just laughable.

Everything they come out with should be taken with a pinch of salt. At last year's forum, Nixon spoke of a Plan B and C if EWM didn't work out. Which part of their fantasy was Plan B and C?

Plan A-Z is Dean Henderson.

Clibbins is probably the best money they ever spent. He's more than earned his keep as a firewall for them.

Would they have done that if people hadn't complained?

I may come along

Would love it if you turned up in a shell suit like Harry Enfields loadsamoney and kept waving a big wad of 50s in Pattys face.

That’ll be fun - you should!

You should walk in with a great big pot, asking for donations for SP.

Look at my wad!

Lucky if 15-20 folk with non-CUFC/CUSG connection…
