There will be a Supporters Trust meeting in the South Stand bar Wed 11th Aug all members welcome, if you are not a member why not come along to the meeting and join up.We need more Committee members so we can be more of an effective "arm" of fund raising for the club and more helpers are needed .So why not come along and see how you can help out or just attend the meeting as your views are vital, if we all do a little bit it makes a huge differance to the club.

What time is the meeting?

Sorry I should have mentioned the meeting starts at 8-00pm.

Without wanting to start an argument isnt that something which a supporters trust shouldnt be?

That is correct. Traditionally they should not be a fundraising arm of the club. A supporters trust is a group of indiviuals who use financial means to gain influence on the club. With the aim of making their voices heard ultimately via board representation by making a financial stake within the club.

is that Wed 11th Aug or Thu 12th?

The meeting is Wed 11th I have altered it above.

The members have the say as to what the money raised is spent on .

Much pedantry here! Who cares just as long as the club gets the Cash!

true, as long as good for the club.

I think you, faxlad and swifty are missing the point.

Is this the same Bubba who's a member of the FC halifax Supporters Trust that are banned from speaking to the football Club for causing so much trouble for the football club?

I didnt realise Bubba was a member of the rugby club's supporters trust? or are you now moving onto the rugby club trying to do to them that which you did to the football club? why dont you just butt out

What a surprise a new member pops up and his first post is aiming a dig at me.

And you clearly dont know what you are on about. Oh and I was a member of the Fax Trust in its early days when it was a Supporters' Trust.

touchy touchy there Bubba, i read the post as a neutral, he asked a quation, all be it tounge in cheek! and u bit! but an intersting point (if true) that a supporters trust has been banned for causing trouble!

Thats the point, its very easy for 'new' posters to come out with false information. I will happily discuss the situation at FC Halifax Town with anyone but its a shame my point about the Fax Trust is ignored.

Dont get me wrong, I aint saying that the Fax Trust is made up of bad people. They are great supporters of the club but they are wrongly badging themselves as a Supporters Trust when they simply do not follow the aims and objectives of a trust. A Supporters Club would be a better way to describe themselves when they simply raise money to hand over to the club. It is so far removed from the reasons it was initially set up by Adie and the lads.
