I feel that if the vsc were more transparent at the time as to why they were fighting it, then some of the animosity could have been alleviated.

I’ll have to disagree there TS. At the time, there were posts on this very forum explaining why we didn’t trust the deal—hence the meetings where JR was invited to discuss it. We also held both public and private discussions with those who disagreed with us, explaining why we felt we had to oppose it. And we made a point of reminding everyone, almost daily, of the Trust’s responsibility to be so thorough.

Would you care to link the to the said posts.
Because as I remember it, nothing was explained, and still isn't. 

Why don't you go and look for them? Then consider whether you are as informed on this as you thought you were.

Tony. Why must you always believe there is a conspiracy? Have you read the rules by which the VSC operates? Have you no understanding of the legal processes in this country? Have you no faith in anybody at all telling the truth? Have you no memory?

What you imply is downright shameful.

Still now were told there are things they still cant talk about.

JR is still the best chairman and owner we've ever had, unless some of the snide insinuations against him on here are backed with proof and evidence, then that will never change.

That's quite an irony given the VSC's stance was asking JR to provide some further Transparency and reassurance about the source of the funding.

Publicly available resources revealed what we knew about Sequentia and Kevin Phelan. Until JR could provide that evidence, we weren't in a position to change that stance.

You can make your own mind up now, especially with the benefit of hindsight, who had the most to hide?

Sadly, I've reached the conclusion, DBR, that we're talking to pork. It's all clearly completely wasted effort.

You can find it in 30 seconds. You prefer to stay ignorant and certain of your own (wrong) opinions. On this as on so much else.

Well.

See that "Search" button.

Amazing thing.

You type in "sequentia" and "Vsc" into the search bar.

You put in the name of a prominent VSC person, like RobTheRover into the "By User" entry.

You choose "Show oldest topics first" because you want to know what was said at the time.

And you get this, stating clearly why the VSC were on guard against Sequentia.

Maybe a bit more practice at looking for info and a bit less shooting your mouth off in future?

"He's got verbal diarrhoea" as my old Dad used to say.

Coupled with serious brain atrophy.
