It’s not confrontational to seek to use democratic levers to change the direction of Arabtrust. It’s the best route to go down imo.

And if the brand is so damaged, one of their first acts could be to “rebrand”.

The more I think about it the more I come back to these points:

13k could’ve been saved by taking control of an organisation already setup to do what DUSF can with the added bonus of an existing seat on the club board (which they could resign if they wanted) and the third largest shareholding in the club.

And we also have to be alert to the fact that DUSF could eventually elect a leadership in favour of and vote by majority of members to provide finances to the club under its current regime.

I think I should point out this isn’t anything against DUSF. Im sure they’re great guys and hearts in right place.

Fans United for example could have done the same. Then they could’ve saved on the yellow scarfs, banners and leaflets.

The point is, any disgruntled groups could seize control of the trust, with all its shares etc, and push their agenda. It would also give the ordinary punter 1 group to get behind rather than 5 or 6.
