What burning questions do you need to ask, that cannot be advanced via OUSP or OxVox ?If they hadn’t promised it of their own free will, almost nobody would care. Such a stupid own goal.
You can bet they’ll do it at the end of the season if we get promoted, mind.

The same OUSP that went on the radio last season and said the club was dodging them and wouldn’t arrange a meeting as promised, let alone fulfil their own suggestion of a proper forum with the wider fanbase? Excellent. As for OxVox, of which I’m a life member… yeah.What burning questions do you need to ask, that cannot be advanced via OUSP or OxVox ?
I usually grab a snorkel and wait for him in the water near the 8th green. I once tried to bury myself in the bunker just off the 14th so that I could burst out at him like a mummy, but it wasn’t deep enough and I was apprehended by the course marshal. They carted me off in a buggy before I could start screaming questions regarding half-season tickets and the lack of online discounts for season ticket holders.All you have to do is join Grant Fergusons golf club, find out what times he plays and “accidentally” bump into him to ask him questions, honestly, the fuss some people make when for a little bit of effort and a huge cash outlay this is an easily solvable problem.

You and your followers come across as feeling rather bitter and appearing to harbour a strong dislike,for those currently charged with the running of our club .The same OUSP that went on the radio last season and said the club was dodging them and wouldn’t arrange a meeting as promised, let alone fulfil their own suggestion of a proper forum with the wider fanbase?

The football club said they would hold a forum - nobody forced their hand. They arrogantly assumed that things would improve and they could come back and tell everyone they were silly to moan before, but when things got worse they ran away and hid. Ferguson flew in and out of the country several times with such stealth that he wouldn’t even allow himself to be photographed, while Williams hired goons to eyeball people from the director’s box if they ever shouted in his direction.
I don’t need anybody to ask my questions for me, because I can ask them directly, and do. But many people don’t have that option and have been promised something that the club should honour. Again, they made the offer.
My followers?! Gosh, you are too kind, putting me on such a pedestal.You and your followers come across as feeling rather bitter and appearing to harbour a strong dislike,for those currently charged with the running of our club .
You mention how things got worse last season-well again, we are in this season and I see no signs of that set of circumstances,repeating themselves.
You also mention OUSP and last season.
Again,we are now in this season and OUSP have not indicated any major issues with our owners or executives-quite the opposite.
I and many others on here, are also life members of OxVox- it’s not an exclusive club !
I ask again,what is it you wish raise, that can only be aired at an in person fans forum ?
That’s literally the entire point, however much people might like to pretend they don’t get that.Personally, I can’t bear the fans forums. Too often in the past they’ve been hijacked by some weirdo, who I’ve never seen at games, relentlessly posing the same crappy question in an increasingly aggressive manner.
BUT
They are important for some people (beside the weirdos) and the club should make good on its promise to hold one.

After my indoctrination on here at Sarge’s hands, if I attended a FF, I couldn’t trust myself not to ask, at the first opportunity, what the club is doing about the provision of craft beers and farmhouse ciders.Bit harsh on Sarge.
So it’s a matter of principle for you and your followers .My followers?! Gosh, you are too kind, putting me on such a pedestal.
Interesting that you talk about the bodies not expressing any concerns lately (do you know for a fact that they don’t have any, rather than being asked to keep any grievances quiet?) while ignoring the people they claim to represent who say that they want one. Plenty of people on this board have and continue to ask for a forum. In fact, I set up a poll that received hundreds of votes where well over 90% of respondents said that they wanted a forum as promised. Are you really glossing over that as though it isn’t indicative of anything? It clearly matters to a good number of people, so it’s really weird that you appear to be actively against one.
Again, and I don’t know how many times I have to repeat this - the club promised it of their own free will to the entire fan base at large, and then completely reneged on it without so much as a whisper. You can crawl up the club’s a**e all you like while simultaneously ignoring the fact that I have clearly said it’s not for me, as though it’s some sort of gotcha, but they failed to fulfil their own promise and there are people who feel put out by that.
How is it so hard for you to understand that a board making a promise to a fanbase, only to then totally ignore that commitment, is an issue and a red flag?So it’s a matter of principle for you and your followers .
Nothing major to discuss.
You just want to sit in a room and be reassured about nothing in particular .
Saddened to hear that you also feel ignored by our representative “ bodies”
Maybe try harder .
Maybe write directly to Tim Williams and explain how you feel .
By the way, I love our club as much as you do .
You have absolutely no idea of the questions I ask directly of people involved with the club because the relevant bodies are either unable or unwilling to.So it’s a matter of principle for you and your followers .
