Quote: Sandal Cat "Membership of the Trust is poor in my opinion but as Al has said I think people were all for the Trust when the previous regime were in control and now the panic seems to be over. The Trust's main aim of holding shares in the Club remains althouth that is not possible at the moment, however the Trust wants to be the link between the Supporters and the Club and at the moment that is how the Club wants it to be also.
The larger the membership of the Trust then the louder our voice and the more we are listened to so I urge as many of you who are not already members to join.
The AGM of the Trust is coming up in November following which an elected Board will be in place. It will be up to that Board to look to increase Membership and drive the Trust forward and I would hope that the Board will look to ways to make Trust membership worthwhile and worth more than the £10 it costs to join.
On the Agar issue the Trust made its and the Supporters view clear at the last Board Meeting which was attended by James Elston which was that we did not want to see Richard Agar as Head Coach - we could not have made it clearer but we are not making the appointment.
At that meeting James said that Richard Agar had not applied for the position and therefore was not being interviewed but that was a month ago and lots have changed since then but for what it's worth I do not think Richard Agar will be Head Coach.
My personal opinion is that I would like to see an Australian as Head Coach who could bring ideas in coaching, conditionining, nutrition etc. as I feel they are ahead of us and we need a good shake up. I would also like to see a local coach as Assistant to be groomed to take over when the Aussie goes home.'"
I dont know where all the Agar rumours have come from apart from the FC fans, as far as I know the new regime at FC are very happy with Rich and realise the problems he has had with injuries and such and that is why he is the one signing players for them next season, I will be amazed if he is not the FC coach next season.
