Can Karen outline what her role as the SLO entails please. I've looked at other clubs and their officers eem to be more involved with fans. I've looked at the FSF and ours doesn't seem to comply with that either.

It would be good to understand what ours actually does.

Genuine enquiry.

How patronising does Karen think the owners are being by not allowing the fans a rep on the Board?

Is our squad strong enough to comfortably finish top 10 or are we in for a tough season looking downwards, like now.

I suspect Gilso thought it was too hot a potato to handle. Macaronied his pants and pulled it at the last minute just in case he offended their highnesses the LOFC owners. I've done no research.

I hope that Whitbread towed the line and didn't offer up any criticism of our young defenders. (Other than Judd and Marvin, who it's ok to blame for mistakes, obviously).

If he did, and we don't yet know if he did, can I apologise on behalf of Gilso to the Club, the owners, the fans, the EFL, the SPFL, the EPL, Uefa, Fifa, Boris Johnson, the Pearly Kings & Queens and the real Queen.

Panel ran out of time to talk about the fans forum, something we will cover in a future show.
You can hear last nights show here. Not my show last night Max, Bill just ran out of time. For the umpteenth time, we are not mouthpieces for the club, but we are there to be supportive of the club. That's not to say we wouldn't be critical of certain things, but any criticism has to be a measured one. We want guests to come onto the show, so we wouldn't be anything other than courteous to somebody who is giving up their free time, possibly on their day off, to come along to chat to us.

So the fans forum is now a secret is it? No info has been shared with the fans, funny that. Almost seems like it was under bullshitti, "nothing gets released or spoken about until I approve it"

Poor very poor.

Never was the "relentless" boardin' accolade more clearly demonstrated to wanabees than Max's love in and respect for Gilso's broadcasting career.

Not the case at all, we ran out of time, so we will cover it on another show.

I'm sure it's a load of flotism.
