I think you're mistaking people that think the SC are a shambles with people that are WAQ fans? Just because I think the SC portray themselves as inept self-serving dinosaurs doesn't mean I'm a fan of Wael. Fair enough Jomo there is a lot of overlap though! I'm not really sure about that actually. I think it's a sign of being immature and not thinking for yourself when you take sides just because it's the side you think you should be on. I'd like to think that I and many other Gasheads can look on the situation at our club objectively and realise that both the Board and the SC are both looking like clowns. It's like me saying that the sun shines out of the club's arse just because I have supported them since I was a kid. That would make me delusional.

So how/when does this get adjudicated and reported on? If found in favour of the complainant what happens then? Anyone know?

Well he could be the Supporter who wrote a book about Football Hooliganism. The book was published in 2001 entitled "Bovver" and later reissued as "Booted and Suited". Chris Brown was a Rovers Supporter during the 1970's.

Doubt it matters - they'll no doubt just make up something disgraceful like they did the last time they reported him for something....

It's like me saying that the sun shines out of the club's arse just because I have supported them since I was a kid. That would make me delusional. The SC have not covered themselves in glory I agree but as I’ve said countless times I’d trust the motivation of any supporters group against any owners. Owners come and go but supporters are for ever. It’s supporters that are left with the shambles that owners leave behind eg Portsmouth, Hereford United , Brighton, Bury to name a few. Our SC executive are just supporters, our PC are just supporters. But both will know a lot about the inner workings and conduct of the current owners and they are very concerned. Yet we have maybe the majority on this forum dismissing and deriding those concerns as the frothy mouthed rantings of old men who’ve lost the plot because they don’t enjoy some sort of privilege they used to have. It’s nonsense not to at least be concerned that no matter how badly they have blundered about and around in recent times that a) they don’t have the future health of the FC right at the heart of their motivation and b) They wouldn’t be going public now if the FC was being well run and had a secure future. So even though they have their faults I am completely supportive of the motives of the SC and the PC at the moment and hope it yields change to a better and more transparent future for the FC we all love.

Question for members of the SC - Are you guilty of malicious persecution ? If this thread wasn't so serious this comment would be laughable. KM was removed with no reason given. Malicious prosecution? But on a more serious note, I hope to god nothing criminal has gone on, and I would like to think nothing has. If it's to do with the inept way the club is being run well that's something else.

The board's job is to continue to provide the day-to-day finance to enable BRFC to remain solvent - currently factually accurate. The supporters job is to support the team and club ideally through the purchasing of tickets/merchandising - currently factually accurate (well baring COVID-19 lockdown) The SCs job is to speak for their members and to ensure that their members views are canvassed and fed back to the board appropriately. I'll leave you to work out which one is incorrect.

BRSC represent themselves and are in it for themselves. Sit back and do f**k all for decades as we are run into the ground. As soon as that useless prat Ken is binned this whole shabang? We should be dancing in the streets that ken has gone and aside from ridding us of Higgs its the only decent thing the board have achieved.
In summary useless prats call useless prats useless prats. What a day to be alive

If it's to do with the inept way the club is being run well that's something else. So who's behind this? Surely not village clowns Chappell, Masters, Hamer, Knowall, Harding and you? What do you actually intend doing if Wael now withdraws funding? Alternatively what happens if the EFL dismiss the charges, as surely there's no way back for any of you as Rovers supporters? Although surely the EFL have enough on their plates at present just keeping football generally in this country from going under rather than worry about internal politics at Rovers. Never as something been so badly timed as this farce.
