Very true Natasha!

Anyway without going over old ground one thing I did notice was the startling revelation shown within that letter (thanks for posing it btw) that it was signed by Ian Bridge in his capacity as Founder and Interim Chair.

What happened then to Richard Hurst whose appointment in the position of Interim Chair was hailed as a major success by the ST at the time?

Have I missed something, has he quit - if so when?

Did anybody else know the such an honourable person in the ST had left or had stood down and why?

If so what happened with the ST's pledge of being transparent and keeping everyone updated and informed?

No. Some long forgotten Aunty bought me The Excession when I was 15 for Christmas, tried reading it  but couldn't get into it.

I know what you mean.

I struggled through The Wasp Factory and then gave up on Walking On Glass because it was so hard to read.

Not my cup of tea.

Never mind the FL league wondering who they are, who do they think they are ? A bit uppity for a group of people who have no real authorisation, and when they receive a response, what do they think they will have achieved ?

Predictable I know but I don't see the problem with this, questions all fans want answered and a bit of lobbying is exactly the sort of thing the ST should concern themselves with. Happy for Steering group to handle that until elections.

The football league followed up with a response just advising they would try to arrange a meeting in mid June

When annoying reps ring me up and start mithering about "photocopier solutions" and other such pointless, trivial shit, I say that too.

The two bits which grind my gears are 'in line with wishes of our membership' as it is not clear to me that the members have said anything like this, and a letter headed 'private and confidential' put up on a public site. It smacks of unprofessionalism, and lacks the gravitas necessary to get the attention of the football league. A letter saying ' we have a ST of 10k members and have been elected to represent them and have the following questions' would be far more likely to start a meaningful dialogue.

Damned if they do and damned if they dont in that instance Mand. Had they not released the letter they'd be criticised for lacking transparency.
