    When I read it that was my initial thought too. Seems like they've been wanting a meeting for a while, got it and then bricked it.

    Unfortunately, their not the voice of the supporters and seem to behind times now.

    Is this really legit?

    It's incomprensible with poor grammar, poor spelling, incorrect punctuation and even the use of the wrong words. It isn't clear who it is addressed to and there is no reference to it on the BCST website. It just doesn't have that ring of truth to me. I suspect it's somebody having some fun at Manny's expense!

    If however it does originate from the BCST, they ought to feel ashamed that something like that would be find its way into the public domain. It serves no useful purpose and after their last public statement following their meeting with Rahic, they ought to have more sense than to write and publish something like this. However, I remain to be convinced that it really is legit. In which case, the BCST should be publicly distancing themselves from this nonsense otherwise the wider supporter base will have grounds for believing it really is their own statement.

    Maybe when Manny has a minute he needs to confirm or deny its a BCST statement.

    This could only be written by a true socialist, Would be quite clear to the vast majority of Momentum and Corbyn comrades

    Having read some of his previous work on BCST website, I would suggest that he has indeed written this. What a load of crap.

    Very poor statement both in content and basic grammar.First line is a sentence asking a question without a question mark or even a full stop.

    A lot of contradictions,the trust doesn't know what Julian thinks about it but they've had meetings with him in his previous tenure.

    I don't know Manny so can't comment if this is his work but can only say the content of this statement will widen the gap between the fans and the trust as you can't believe the trust truly have the best interests of the fans with nonsense like this.

    Edwin out, is the foundation of a rebuilt club.

    Only read up to the line "up Edins arse" hahaha
    Seems like any representation of any supporters club should really know better. Childish, I would seriously question any fan that would want to be associated with this lot.
    And for that reason, I'm out.

    That's it. I've had enough.

    Now Bradford City Supporters Trust can't be trusted to get behind the supporters who don't trust the club.

    Anyone up for starting an Edin Rahic Supporters Trust - the ERST? I will put put BCST's names down on my list.

    This is the City Talk forum and this is not an appropriate thread for making political points. For future reference, I suggest you restrict your political statements to threads which are themselves political in nature.

    I actually thought the trust statement had political undertones so it's not unreasonable to discuss It, but agree that we don't want BT to go down that road

    This.

    As a Trust member, I firmly believe that we have long passed the point of having any meaningful discussion with Edin. The vast majority of fans seem to have reached the same conclusion. Its time for the Trust to represent the fans.

    The language, the general tenet of that article should not have been put out there by any organisation. Not that I am or have ever been a member of BCST but that article does them absolutely no favours. It's just so amateurish, probably not unlike the way our club has been run for at least the last year or so.
