    Trust Elections 2023

    A bit strong to say I "hate" EXEWEB as its not true. As someone else has said my only problem with Exeweb is that it allows people to hide behind false/fake names and icons. I won't engage with anyone that won't have the common courtesy to identify themselves and post under their real name. If...

    Port Vale v Exeter City. FA Cup first round. Matchday thread.

    Think you've got the story wrong somewhat, I objected to the use of just one word, the C word, unnecessary and disrespectful to both their and our supporters, there were women, children and others around us who really didn't appreciate it and Al Yates agreed with me. I do also think the "ferry"...

    Neil Le Milliere - Trust Election Thread

    Neither am I an expert so can only quote those who are hence directing you to the Electoral Commission site. This subject was also raised as a question about the current general election on the BBC 1 O'clock news and the answer was again that cyber security is still not considered secure enough...

    Just to correct one small point, you don't pay extra for your drink at the FECRACE just a deposit on the mug which is refunded once you have finished with it thus not only encouraging multi-use but also then saving on clearing up and glass/rubbish collection.

    I didn't enjoy, nor not enjoy them not having been there or able to watch. Personal choice, I was already taking my wife out that evening and was not prepared to cancel that having had the tickets booked for many months. I did inform those proposing that date as soon as it was put to us. If I am...

    Agreed, we are pointing that out to those who are ordering the beer.

    Neil Le Milliere - Trust Election Thread

    Hi again Byll, just a quick reply, have a look at https://www.electoralcommission.org.uk/search?search=electronic+voting which covers many of the questions you raise including legal and technical issues and gives a far better answer than I ever could.

    Neil Le Milliere - Trust Election Thread

    Just a quick post on here to say that I haven't been around to come onto Exeweb since my first series of posts as just too busy with other volunteering tasks and attending games. if I have time I will try to answer the questions posed but to be honest its unlikely. As those of you who attended...

    Neil Le Milliere - Trust Election Thread

    Interesting Paul, I'll defer the main answer until after tonight as you suggest I think. Commercial income for the Club is something we've tried to crack for years and despite various experts being appointed and expert opinion being sought and listened to we still can't make it the major part of...

    Neil Le Milliere - Trust Election Thread

    Good morning again Robyn. I see no reason that every year can't be competitive so not sure why you think it won't be in the next two years. I think Pete is in a different position but don't feel able to comment on what his reasons may or may not be but also don't understand why you think he will...

    Thanks for the question Rob. The first thing to say is that the current Junior Grecians set up is doing a fantastic job and the first name on anyone's voting slip should be Clive in recognition of this. Promoting the Club, Junior Grecians, and the Trust to local football team members is of...

    Neil Le Milliere - Trust Election Thread

    My Exeweb inexperience is showing as I can't find your name in your profile but no matter as I think I know who you are. Simple answer No. The reason is I can see no circumstances where I would want our club to be in anyone's hands/control other than the supporters who I trust as a collective...

    Neil Le Milliere - Trust Election Thread

    Thanks for this point. The fact that Exeweb is happy doesn't mean to say that I have to be. To me it is only common courtesy and a sign of respect to identify yourself when talking to someone and is one of the reasons I don't use Exeweb. However in this instance it's a choice for those posing...

    Thanks for this question Byll. As you may be aware, but for those not aware, I act as the Independent Chair on a number of Election Management Groups for many other Trusts so have a wide experience of what happens elsewhere to compare to our experience at Exeter. Our Election turnouts are...

    Why am I shooting myself in the foot Byll? If I am prepared to put myself here to answer questions why would posters not show the same courtesy and respect and identify themselves in return? Turning to your question I disagree that there are "a lot of things unnecessarily restricted to the...

    Thanks for this but i am disappointed you don't seem to want to reveal who you are? I do of course have an advantage over those not already on the TB as I've had the opportunity to both listen to representatives from the Women's team and support efforts to bring them into the family including...

    Many thanks to Byll for alerting me to the fact that discussion were taking place here, not being a regular (or even irregular) user of Exeweb I was unaware it was happening until this. As always, I am happy to try to answer any questions anyone may have for me or expand on any points of...
