I wish I could share your optimism. There are far too many unanswered questions, which hopefully a public meeting and a comprehensive document mailed out with the ballot papers will go some way to addressing.

PS Does anyone remember Bhatia and Strang? I wish the individuals fronting Munto Finance Limited no disrespect but I can recall many supporters falling over themselves for these people to takeover NCFC on the back of a few promises. And we know what happened then ... I wouldn't want to see the end of any form of supporter representative at Meadow Lane without some very real assurances about the long-term future.

For me the only way Munto will make any money out of Notts is by us being successful. Why do some of you always try and be negative about everything. If we got into the premier league you would moan that your ticket costs too much.

The members of the Trust are being asked to give away the Trust's shareholding. The Trust have said that they're willing to answer questions asked. Why is it so unreasonable to ask who we're giving it to, what the club gets out of it, and what the implications are for the Trust?

Good logic that. I once had a red car and it broke down. Therefore all red cars break down.

Anyway, talking of Bhatia and Strang, do you remember saying any of this:

Personally, I was encouraged that Sam McEwan was in agreement with the aims of the Trust and recognised the importance of two-way communication between the club and its fans. This represents a sound foundation on which to hopefully build a positive and constructive relationship.

My own impression of Sam McEwan is that he is a frank-speaking Scotsman, who has an interest in football. During the meeting he was friendly, and willing to discuss a range of issues.

I am not against investment, indeed I think most are agreed that the club will struggle to move forward without it. But what I am concerned about is throwing away the Trust's principles of supporter involvement seemingly overnight.

Gareth and David what exactly is the other option ?
