You woukd imagine that it woukd be available on the TfE website as well. I do hope so, what we don't need is another club for the boys like the Trusts Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Having gone back and read the statements on the official website from when the takeover was announced the working group is being set up by the PTFC Trust and TfE. What the Jags Trust involvement is beyond them being able to offer their opinions as fans I don't know. Their Board were in support of the consortium very early on but they have not made any direct comment since. I did note though in the last programme they were singing the praises of Supporters Direct Scotland who believe in greater fan ownership.

The Jags Trust also has to follow the wishes of their membership, (which I am a member of although I've not been to any meetings). They really can't go on acting like it's separate from all the re-organisation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But there place seems to have been taken over by TFE ? Wonder why that would be ? The whole situation with the Jags Trust has been, in my opinion, very strange over recent years. The years play tricks on the memory but can you remind me Jim if the decision not to allow the Jags Trust rep a place on the Club Board was when you were on the Board or was it after you had left it?

Pinhead Posted December 1, 2019 Report Share Posted December 1, 2019 Think the jags trust went from something meh to non existant when Peden and the NW Bus seized control and it became their own wee club Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fawlty Towers Posted December 1, 2019 Report Share Posted December 1, 2019 Just posted: As previously announced, both Thistle for Ever and the PTFC Trust have been invited to be part of a Working Group to make recommendations to both the boards of Partick Thistle Football Club and Three Black Cats setting out how the club can move forward as a community-owned club. Acceptance of these recommendations would trigger the transfer of shares from Three Black Cats to the appropriate vehicle considered most appropriate for this purpose. A key part of this process will include engagement with Thistle fans on as wide a basis as possible so that the proposals can clearly be seen to have their approval. The members of the core Working Group are: Craig Dunn Paul Goodwin Pauline Graham Allan Heron Tom Hosie Russel McPhate Keith Rarity Gordon Shaw Elaine Sibbald Ian Wright This group is made up of fans associated with Thistle for Ever, PTFC Trust and others who have indicated an early interest in getting involved in this process. Please note that there are no Directors of the club included on the Working Group to avoid any conflict of interest as they will have a role in approving the recommendations arising. The initial meeting of the Working Group will take place this week where we will firm up on future activities (which will include opportunities for other fans to get involved). However, we do anticipate that we will be issuing a questionnaire for fans to complete, with the intention of having a public meeting in January which will both share the results from this along with a wider discussion of what community ownership will mean. A further announcement will be made as soon as possible after the meeting. Thank you to everyone who helped so far.
