I might have missed it in amongst all the chat on here and on Twitter, and maybe it’s me being simplistic, but did the club board and society board not sit down together before they launched this investment drive to work out what the goal was and make sure we were all aligned and on the same page?
To sit down and collaboratively figure out what the goal was and then simulate potential outcomes to figure out where any red lines were in advance rather than descend into, as someone else referenced earlier, something out of the life of Brian?
Given the strong feelings from Jay and others both inside and outside the society membership that majority ownership would appear to be the third rail we should not go near, why are McMahon and Weir (from my vantage point) acting like even the thought of this being something that could divide a fan base is a huge shock?
