I'm more interested in Norton's "Higgs meeting the same two people, not allowed to wander round" comment, that sound more intriguing than people discussing the Gas in the Welly!! I'm more concerned about the lady in the shop. Will she be sacked for divulging secrets. Will someone with a poison umbrella tip follow her down the Gloucester Road?

you appear to have confused dream with 'nightmare over my dead body inflated ego and bully' This secret meeting was being discussed at Ground on Tuesday and on Twitter thereafter. Any meeting which improves anything or even tries to is welcomed.

Hi Everyone !
Yes it is all true. the Wellie Group leaders and BRISA representatives were all present in a discussion/ Q and A meeting with the said Directors. This was a follow up to The Q & A event back in July where unfortunately, the questions of The Wellie Group ( all of you who helped to decide on the questions)did not get to these questions asked. This happened last night as well as a discussion on developments at Rovers and talks about how to get Rovers supporters involved in helping/supporting the club ( in activites like the group who have been helping to generate ideas/ merchandise for the club shop etc.
We managed to ask many questions and get answers. We also discussed the possiblity of forming these cooperation groups. We agreed meeting was more than worthwhile although we have no earth shattering news to report. We will hopefully reveal some information to you soon. Please be patient. There is also the strong possibility as I have stated of getting more of you involved in working more closely with the club and this opportunity could/should come when we arrange an open invite to all Gasheads to come along and discuss/find out what they can get involved in/ what they can offer skill sets/ or offering their free time and enthusiasm. Hopefully, this could be around end of October.
As I said we will report more soon.

Is there any reason why this could not have been done at an open meeting like the previous welly group ones seeing as they were group members questions ? Also why the secrecy ? Thanks

Were the supporters club invited to the meeting? They represent a hell of a lot more people than the BRISA/Welly group. And how does someone who doesn't attend games (Mark) get such preferential treatment? Is he the future of the club when he doesn't even go to games? Mind you, the two directors involved don't attend games either.
My questions among others were not asked at the main meeting, so can I have a private meeting as well? And I go to games.
'we will reveal some information to you soon'. Who the hell do you think you are and who do you represent? The supporters club is by far the biggest body representing the fans. Why were they not there?
Another absolute disgrace.

It just feels really controlling to me. Controlling of what was asked from the board and the responses given. The questions were not theirs to ask. Its clear they didnt want anyone to know about it and its clear without Jelfs say so nothing will be shared.

They were only represnting themselves which is fair enough so shouldnt pretend it was anything else. If they brought up the questions compiled by fans at the meetings, then surely they were not just representing themselves? Following Higgs open meeting, fow many people on here have been pro-active about getting off their arses and badgering the club for communication with the fans? I know that I haven't, so I'm not going to be critical of those who have. Could we not wait and see the outcome of this meeting before going overboard? It may well be that Chris Jelf has to take things back to discuss with other Board members, hence there may not be any definite news to share at the moment.

Hugo, the difference is that the S/c questions were asked openly by anyone who cared to be there. Then Mark says 'we will hopefully reveal some info to you soon' . This implies that info not in the public domain is potentially to be revealed. There IS no revelation if we already know the detail.
He represents a handful of people who can't be bothered to attend an official meeting . What a bloody joke.
No. This is a disgrace. It is like the start of a civil war between fans groups, and it's being stirred up by the directors. Until this is stopped by NH, I will no longer be buying 50/50 tickets etc. the club don't deserve the extra if this is how it's going.
Wonder what BSS thinks of this? It's BRISA /Welly that is actively trying to get a different rep onto the clubs board. To me, this means they really don't like having Brian on the board, which also tells me that he is the perfect person to have on the board. If they don't like him he must be asking very awkward questions of them.
What could the unknown info be? If it's delivered to a couple of people who represent three men and a dog in a pub, why aren't the rest of us able to share in it?
Tilly's thighs. Why should we wait till someone who refuses to go to matches decides it's time to tell us minions what we should know? They don't represent the fans in any meaningful way. They have an axe to grind with the club and two directors fall for it. Was it with NH's permission?
Can the supporters club have a private meeting as well? It's time this clubs directors started acting in the clubs best interests, not cow towing to a few guys full of their own self importance.
I'd suggest that the S.C start withholding some of the £100,000 or so they raise annually for the club. Then perhaps the club might start showing OUR reps the respect they deserve. Remember, we are the only real asset the club has. Can they afford to p*ss off any more of us?
This is a classic divide and rule tactic, and the board must not be allowed to get away with it.

Turns out they invited Eclectic Gas and then uninvited him when he wouldnt tow the line. Great bloke Rick and his mate John M the former supporters club chair. Now theres two guys id like on board for that kind of meeting.
To be fair they havent tried to get a new sc rep voted in, they gave Rod a chance to talk at the meeting as he requested.

Did Rick tell you which "line" he wasn't prepared to tow, which caused his invitation to be withdrawn?

I've lost the plot on this thread tbh. I mostly think that it's some Rovers fans who organised a group that all want the best for the club had a meeting with two club reps.
Anything more or less?

Pretty much agree. The Welly group (not the 3) tabled some questions for the NH Q and A. They were not answered. The Welly 3 meet with club to get answers. The Welly 3 will tell us (the Welly group) the answers shortly. It would have been nice to have had a heads up on the meeting, more out of noseiness than anything else. Would also be great to have the answers RIGHT NOW!! But only because I'm interested to see if we got our answers.
