@Foxes_Trust apologies if this has been covered but do you have any confidence the results actually reach Rudkin or Top who are really the only (in)decision makers ?

My opinion is that they'll definitely reach the levels of Rudkin and others of the C-suite level. Those at senior board level including the new ceo will inevitably have seen and read some of the results 

Do I think Top will read and sit there contemplating the results? Probably not. 

Bump on this. 

Raffle tickets for this year's tournament are now available. All money split between the group and LOROS. 

Hope to see as many people as possible there!

Despite best intentions and all that, just what is THE point???

 

And there are far too many questions. 

 

Time for new ownership. That's the answer. End of.

The point is to actually have tangible information that the club can't simply keep ignoring and information that can be shared externally about how the fan base is feeling - not just a portion of people on Foxestalk or X. Things are bad at the moment but doing nothing definitely achieves nothing! 

As for far too many questions, it's 5 minutes of your time. Just crack on with, I'm sure everyone can sacrifice that time. 

Fill the survey out. End of 😉

Any spectators? Will be more enjoyable than watching LCFC

There'll be music, a BBQ and bar + the raffle draw which will be announced soon too!

The more the merrier 

This year's tournament has been confirmed for the 20th June and will be held at the Grove in Braunstone. 

Previous entrants will be contacted shortly about re-entering if they wish. Looking forward to it, always one of the best group days of the year! 

Great article 🍻

What’s the best email to use if you’ve not had one please? 

The survey has closed now but might be worth emailing [email protected] to make sure you're not missing any other emails. 

Thought I'd share this as an urgent request from The Bridge in case anyone can help.

Can I ask- how will you attend the meetings if you’re banned? Online? 

Yeah that's right. I believe some of the board do the same if other commitments make physical attendance tough.

Is there a preferred amount at all or any sort of fee's you guys have to pay that I should factor into my donation at all? I don't want to give you guys £20 for example and Paypal take £2 or someting. I would give enough to cover the fee's if that was the case. 

Give whatever you can is all most of us would say. If you're sending via PayPal, just be sure to select 'Friends & Family' as then PayPal won't take a fee - unless there's currency conversion involved. 

Thanks in advance for the donation!

And on your last point, yeah the BBC never lie do they

Not sure people's conspiracy theories about the BBC run as deep as Owynn but the conflation did make me laugh.

Owen now saying the full interview is 8am tomorrow.

 

No idea why it's been embargoed. More shit to come today?

Likely embargoed by the club to allow all journos to release at the same time. RL were one of many interviewing top that day it seems. 

Really hope the state of the club doesnt affect what the charity receive too much. They still need as much support as possible and it's a great cause.

Maybe now the election has concluded, the gloves may come off on both sides.

"I have received a number of complaints from Foxes Trust members - all making similar points around an interview with Ian Bason on the 'Blue Tinted Glasses' podcast.

The complaints are stating that Mr. Bason has broken rules 6.1 & 6.6 of the election policy:-

 6.1. Campaigning under the auspices of the Society will be restricted to the statements submitted by the candidates and to any hustings organised by the Society.  

 6.6. During the election neither the IEM, EMG nor the Society Board may provide advice to voting members as to the suitability of any candidate nor issue any voting advice to members collectively. Individual Society Board members who indicate a preference in public must make it clear that they do not speak on behalf of the Society Board and express a purely personal opinion. 

and that he has used this podcast to criticise other candidates / groups and give himself a clear advantage for his own position over other candidates.  

The Election Management Group (Jim Wheeler - Independent Chair, Alan Digby - Foxes Trust secretary, and Colin Phillips - Foxes Trust sub group member & Reform Group member) has reviewed the podcast and the complaints raised (and the opposing views). The EMG has agreed as follows:-

Mr. Bason was invited on to the independent podcast to be interviewed (he did not initiate this as has been alleged). On the podcast, he was introduced as a member of Foxes Trust, and then introduced himself as a supporter firstly and then gave a brief history of Foxes Trust and his own roles. He has been a long established member of the Trust Board and former chair, so will naturally be associated with the Foxes Trust by most listeners. We do not believe he initiated the discussion on the election or the 'Reform Group', he was answering questions from the hosts and did not state that he was representing the Trust Board in his responses. The fact that this discussion took place more than half way through an interview of over 1 hour would indicate that this was not the primary motivation or intent behind the interview - and many listeners / viewers would not have got this far through the podcast if the intention was solely to gain a specific advantage in the election. 

When discussing the Reform Group intentions, Mr. Bason clearly stated it was HIS view, (as opposed to the view of the FT Board). He also clearly stated he believes having the Reform Group on the Board is a positive and the positive aspects of their involvement. At no point did Mr. Bason name any other candidate, or in fact even specifically indicate that he was a candidate. We are aware that other podcasts have been issued with the 'Reform Group' stating opposing opinions. It would therefore be unfair if Mr. Bason (or any other existing Board member) were unable to give personal opinions because of their existing position / role.  

So we do not believe that Mr. Bason was campaigning under the auspices of the society, and that therefore the Board were not giving voting advice to members. 

We have consulted with the Football Supporters Association on matters of policy before giving this response to ensure we have understood and are following the rules correctly.

The objections have therefore been rejected, and as rule 7.1 - this decision of  the EMG is final."

This was the decision from the election committee. Jim is an independent person from Derby's trust who is overseeing the election.

There was a planned tifo for tonight which I assume is now not going ahead. 

Effectively the attendance in the Kop at the start of the game would make a full stand display look poor. With the money the wider fan base puts into these displays, it's better to make sure it looks as good as poss once done. 

Great to see, I hope more and more back it

How are they so incapable of doing something they do for every game. Just ridiculously incompetent

Fed up of pretending we have to respect people like Brock's opinion - he's a complete idiot and everything he says is shit.

He has 0 respect for anyone else so should be treated in the same way.
