The proposed meeting of the Supporters Trust scheduled for Friday 20th January has been CANCELLED
Members have advised us that the date is inconvenient, and with a number of the Board also unavailable , we have decided to cancel the meeting and reschedule at a later date
An announcement will be made when the new date is set. |

Bit daft arranging and announcing a meeting without first checking on the availability of the Board Members isn't it?

Thank you. The original date was tomorrow. Rich didn't know about the funeral so changed the date, he's good like that. This meant others not being able to make a Friday night which is understandable, these things happen. Best rearrange for a more suitable time for everyone. I still dont know or understand why you criticise or run down everything the trust is trying to do? Why? Honestly why? Perdiswell has taken, literally, years of hard work by a few people. It may not become reality but we've bloody tried. Compare that with the actions of the Directors, whatever they are, no fans, or shareholder meetings at all so we don't know. You seem to be in on their plans so please do tell. Committed to fan ownership and a sustainable future at Perdiswell or prawn sandwiches with no personal effort in the corporate box at Sixways? I want this club to survive another 100 years, but what the f**k do i know. Rant over and out....... |

The cynical amongst us might deduce that either downthelane or someone they're closely associated with could be in a heap of trouble (legal or otherwise) should things change and the ST managed to have gotten control of the club. |

I'm really not concerned about downthelane, or any of those who mock what we do, it's not worth wasting too much air on. Its not easy being involved in the Supporters Trust, and you've got to be thick skinned enough to take these kind of shots. I've seen people try and get involved, thinking its a cosy little supporters club, and finding that actually its pretty tough, and you're going to get knocks from all sides. We've had people saying "I want to be on the Supporters Trust Board, I can do this, I can do that" and wearing their ST Director badge on their Twitter profile, thinking that it makes them look important, and then they do bugger all, and can't even be bothered to turn up to meetings. Luckily they soon disappear off the scene and go back to the "lets all cheer on the lads" brigade where they belong.
None of this fazes us, we believe in what we are doing, and I'm bloody proud to work alongside all those who have lasted the course , and a couple of those who had to stand down, like Niels and Paul Curtis.
Rob, Rich, Dave, Bosko, Julian, Jane, Norm (and Jess), Mike, Mark and Marcus - these are the guys who are going the extra mile for this football club. As Rob says, we want this club to survive another 100 years, but if we don't make it, at least we will know that it wasn't for want of trying.

Damn it, I knew I'd forget someone, I am genuinely really sorry about that Kev, a pure memory blip.
Seriously mate, you are definitely one of the leading lights, and if we do get to Perdiswell, we'll need your skills and expertise. Top man is that Kev Preece!

Not sure how you outd miss Kev in his hi-viz! And we wouldn't have even got Bromsgrove up to speed without him and Mike doing all the work. Don't knock everyone who's ever tried to help Jem, there are too few people as it is. Remember nobody wins... |

Kev got no credit for the work he did to get us to Bromsgrove, and neither did Mike. Without these two, there would be no WCFC playing at this level this season.
