    Unita Fortior Statement

    There is a written statement from Unita Fortior in response to the CUOSC item that was broadcast on BBCRC on Friday evening. Here is the first sentence of that statement.

    We're disappointed that CUOSC appear to of misunderstood or mischaracterised our intentions.

    That tells me all that I need to know of the leadership of Unita Fortior.
    "..... appear to of misunderstood....."

    It should be :-
    "..... appear to have misunderstood.....".

    An organisation that seeks to provide new leadership of CUOSC should not show such ignorance of basic English language.

    The Statement was cringingly bad and achieved nothing.

    They shouldn't have risen to the bait.

    I like a good spat. Unfortunately the Trust are acting like the Headmaster asking UF to come to his study for a thrashing and UF are putting up 2 fingers. Maybe the Governors will step in!

    I too like a good spat but the outcome of this one is not of incredible importance.
    The club, 1921, will either become insolvent and cease to exist or it will get new ownership. The only way that it will get new ownership is if such new ownership gets all 100% of the Holdings shares.
    That would reduce the importance of CUOSC to almost zero. It would be an amateur organisation just existing to attempt to raise money for 1921, which in its entire existence it has failed to do. It can hardly raise enough money to fund its own existence. Furthermore it is still in debt to one of its founder members who provided it with £50,000 all those years ago. Clearly CUOSC, without its blocking shareholding, will be of negligible importance and the pompous egotists currently vying for control of it will cease to have any interest in it.
