Is Thohir aware of this? If not, is it time to let him know via social media?
Jury's out for me on that Q. OUSP is a creation of the board so can't really do otherwise but trust their intentions. Oxvox have to tread a fine line and there's always a risk that being too strident or reactive undermines long term relations, especially with the owners. They have definitely made mis-steps in the recent past. Today's message is serious and does represent an escalation. Benefit of the doubt can only survive for so long in the face of bare-faced lies told directly to fans and the local media even if those lies were made in a timely and proactive manner.Question is, have OxVox and OUSP been naive to trust Williams? I’d say yes.
Edit: we may disagree on a lot and lock heads at time but I think when it comes to the running of club we are both on the same page and for me that is what OUFC, you can have different opinions on many subjects/players/managers but at the end of the day, when it comes to the club as a whole we all want the same outcome and have the same expectations of how it is ran.
That’s because he isn’t one, he’s an accountant at best, and doesn’t appear to be much cop at that either.He's a dreadful CEO
Well, if some customers haven’t learnt by our historical interactions or lack of them with Kassam, then I guess they never will.Proof if nothing else that we need @OxVox and their willingness to be a challenging friend than the “in bed with the club” nature of @OUSP.
It’s easy to be a club like Reading who willingly ignored the danger signs and rode on the happy wagon when times were good. It’s uncomfortable, at a time of euphoria, to have to have these conversations, but it’s important to the utmost degree. The club governance and transparency of certain individuals is an exhausting hidden mess
You’re all conveniently forgetting that we’ve only been a Championship’s Club for a year, admittedly Manning had us 2nd in the table when he departed, but promotion last season was a complete and utter surprise even though we made the playoffs and the final. Who knew we might win at Wembley? It was freak set of circumstances. This season at Christmas it looked like we were going down, how could anyone have foreseen Rowett’s turnaround?
It’s very difficult to plan for the Championship when this season and for next season we expected to be in League One. We’re years ahead of schedule and still learning what it is to be a top 30 Championship Club.
We’ll need more than one season in the Championship to be able to organise a fans forum, these things are highly complex and take time.
All I've ever wanted is the truth. It always felt like the 'we can't do the forum until Grant is in the country' was unnecessary stalling. At least we're now getting a flat 'nah, I don't want to do that'.So Tim Williams managed to get people to publicly defend and praise him while overseeing the club being handed a second transfer embargo in less than 12 months, then pulled the rug on them after months of stringing them along and went “LOL thanks for that, but I won’t be giving you any of my time like I promised, byeeeee!”
You have to admire it in a way. He doesn’t even pretend to respect anybody. Then again, he would probably argue he doesn’t need to.
no. there is additional requirements for the Championship.This same paperwork would be required in League One wouldn’t it?
no. there is additional requirements for the Championship.
Is thar pure speculation, or have you heard that there is a remote possibility of this happening ( as you are somebody who on football matters, seem to have their ears to the ground?)imagine if we get a points deduction.....
Every day it isn’t resolved, it only gets more likely, especially as this isn’t our first misdemeanour. The fact he’s even running the risk boils my p**s.Is thar pure speculation, or have you heard that there is a remote possibility of this happening ( as you are somebody who on football matters, seem to have their ears to the ground?)
I am genuinely not sure that is true.Every day it isn’t resolved, it only gets more likely, especially as this isn’t our first misdemeanour. The fact he’s even running the risk boils my p**s.
Watch him come out when it’s sorted and go “see, I told you, I’m a man of my word. About time I got some respect”.
Be quiet, Little Mushroom.I am genuinely not sure that is true.
For this misdemeanor is the punishment a fine, points deduction, transfer embargo?
Swiss Yellow seens often to be close to what is going on. So my question relayed to whether he has heard anything specific.
The Oxvox comments clearly have concerned people, but in my view we need to know what is going on factually.
If you are joking then whoosh, but, if not then why does the division we are effect whether or not there is a fans forum?

They did. It's not an excuse for not doing it, but it is not the same requirement.Ok cool. Derby and Portsmouth did well to navigate the extra requirements then
Oh I don't disagree Colin.Very true. But as long as we have a SMT led by a CEO who doesn't feel the fans should be told ANYTHING AT ALL, then how will we get these facts?
I suspect when an eagle eyed fan spots something on the EFL website saying we've got a points deduction or something similar. At which time the CEO and SMT will all be away on their summer jollies, patting themselves on the back for not having to face those pesky fans' difficult questions.

That honesty is all I've ever wanted.
So proud of my club right now![]()
