Trust statement ...

As a supporters’ trust, our primary focus should always be on off-the-field matters, but we seem to have reached the stage where apparent inaction off the pitch seems to be having an impact right across the Club, and its supporter base.

​We also have a duty as a democratic organisation to respond to the wishes of our members to make their feelings known to those in control of the Club.

​Currently there seems to be a state of inertia whilst we all await the arrival of Ben Knapper on the 27 November, still two games away, which is helping no one.

​The completion of the legal process with Mark Attanasio seems to finally be approaching a conclusion, but, from an outside perspective there’s no overall sense of leadership, or direction, and supporters are desperate for some sense of a vision that we can all buy into and move forward together.

​It's sad to say that many supporters now feel completely disconnected from the club we all support, and many are turning up to games out of a sense of duty, rather than a compelling desire to attend matches. Apathy is widespread and some are questioning whether they want to continue attending games despite having done so for decades in some cases.

​Something has to change, but the supporters can’t bring that change about: it must come from within the Club and we trust that the current silence will be broken before the situation deteriorates further.
