Yeah and 3 years early is the projected buy out given by SMISA in response to a question I putto them and was put to them at the Q&A meeting Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not a celebrity endorsement It isn’t a done deal I would be very surprised if people in their position blindly endorsed something so relative to their pretty public sports roles. Can you back-up your claim they didn’t spend time looking at it further? Otherwise it is baseless and as such doesn’t stand-up your argument.

Hopefully they will have the contacts and resources to assist there. That would be a great Contribution. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wilbur Posted February 14, 2020 Report Share Posted February 14, 2020 I have to say I'm disappointed in the Smisa committee for sending out that email today titled a "Reminder to Vote". A reminder should be just that, a nudge to the recipient in case they have forgotten about the vote. Nothing more than that. Instead Smisa have used this email as another opportunity to push their case for a Yes vote. That's not a "reminder" it is blatant propaganda aimed at influencing the voter. We've already seen the original email pushing for members' support for the proposal, we've had the opportunity to attend the Q&A, and the video of that Q&A is out on general release. Yet still the "reminder" isn't even-handed. Poor show IMO. Fear that the proposal might fail ? And I'm wondering what exactly is the criteria that entitles people to cast a vote here. Do you have to be an active member of (contributor to) BtB or is just being a Smisa member enough to qualify ? I am in the latter category (non-contributor) yet I am being invited to vote. Why should I have the same voting rights as those who are shelling out their hard-earned £££ every month ? I have presumed that this is an administrative error and I won't be voting as I feel unqualified to cast a vote. Certainly morally unqualified.
