Would we be better off with new owners?

I have no confidence anymore in the Trew's handling of ON field matters. Off the field they have been fantastic for the club IMO.

However, it could be out of the frying pan into the fire if there was a change (Charlton are the latest example of this).

What do you think?

It seems there is too much interference from the owners, I say seems because I don't know for sure. We haven't got the manager right for a few seasons. That's another concern. So much good done, but lots of work to be done. Start by getting rid of Guy Branston.

#Trews In    At least we have owners with honest intentions. Pavis had put the club up for sale for years without any real buyers.

Out. Good intentions or not, they will take our club into the conference. Even the Trust didn't manage that. 

@Super_Danny_Allsopp as if there are buyers out there (interested in Notts) with the substantial cash to make a difference?

I don't think it necessarily needs a lot of cash to make a semi-successful team. A return to League One would at this stage be a success. 

I hope the club will be sold by the current owners, and I hope rumours are true regarding a potential takeover. This is solely because I believe the current owners will lead the club further downwards, both in league position and fan attendance. 

@Super_Danny_Allsopp I too feel disenfranchised from Notts at the moment. Lack of Bench emails, lack of creative midfield to get excited about, lack of substitutions etc... but not so long ago we had Storrie and Scardino then potentially Bhatia and Strang (property developers), the Trust, ...  I would rather have the Trews than going into the unknown. Sorry if that is not what you want to hear

It's difficult isn't it. To a large extent I agree with both of you, @Super_Danny_Allsopp and @Piethagoram. we're between a rock and a hard place. I voted 'Trews out' because I think the relationship between them and the majority of the fans is now broken beyond repair.

I'm under no illusion that unfortunately some supporters of clubs have to accept their owners regardless of how good or bad they are, for fear of not having a club to support. It's a sad reflection on football, really, but that's the reality of things. 

I will continue to support the club regardless of who the owners are at that time. However, do I have a hope that someone will buy the club in order for the club to progress? Absolutely, I do. 

The question really is, can you see the club progressing under current owners? My answer is no.

@ivansneck In all honesty, Jamie's lack of media skills hasn't helped matters. Also, in Julian Winters, we now have an "invisible" CEO...even more invisible than Rodwell, and thats saying something!!!! I mostly fear for a lack of "vision", having been promised total football under Ricardo and now faced with Alan Smith stumbling around midfield instead of a go getter/ creative  type of player. Maybe the Trews miscalculated the level of disfranchisement..but the "selling" of Jamie's abilities to the supporters fell far short of what we expected. He has been left to hang out and dry, which is unfair on him

@Super_Danny_Allsopp I think the Trews need to do something...the Notts own media people running the  profile of the club has died a death...Jamie has got to help himself to bring supporters on board...including just what is happening with Stanley..who appears to still, as an educated guess, be sulking over Ricardo's departure. Swerts departure when he wanted to stay and fight, too could have been better handled. ( Swerts or Smith..I know who I rather have)

I agree to disagree with SDA and @ivansneck... there are no guarantees how good or bad new owners will be. The one thing with the Trews, they do really care about Notts, and for that reason, I voted Trews In.

I voted no.

Simply because it's not for me to say, yet I can understand how people feel - I would be concerned about who may come in. Until there's a solid person wanting to invest, I really won't engage in this but if someone who's credible (no digs - I simply mean no Munto type scam) then I may change my view based on that.

I Voted No. 

 

Same as Joe, As long as there is a Real Investment plan i'd stick with the Trews.

If they plan to match 'Real' then Trews in!

There were buyers out there for Bristol rovers, I'm sure the oldest football league club can find a buyer ?
