Birchamgate and the Board Lies
 
Seems to have gone quiet on this front.

With the upcoming elections it's important to ascertain the truth to this and have some accountability.

The WST statement originally said that Don Birchams very generous interest-free loans to the club were "unauthorised".

This can't have been the case anyway, they would need authorisation from the only two directors the club has - Gavin Jones and Mark Williams.

Some would say the club were quite happy to throw Don under the bus in the interest of self-preservation of the board members' own positions. Putting themselves before the health of Wrexham AFC. The board minutes that were approved by every board member stated an investigation would be undertaken into Don Bircham for his loans to the club. Now it appears there will be no investigation into Don Bircham (And rightly so!). But there also won't be an investigation into our own directors and why this whole saga has come about.

The WST have now changed their stance and stated the loans were known about.

So the questions is, who's lying?

Either the entire WST and Wrexham AFC club board have collectively lied to all of us and made false and defamatory comments about Don Bircham - who has done, and still continues to do, an incredible amount of good for the club.

or

Gavin Jones or Mark Williams or both lied to the WST board about the loans and were happy for a major sponsor to be thrown under the bus in order to avoid accountability

These are very serious issues.

They should not be allowed to lie and they must be addressed.

Just clear them all out, get a new temporary board in place with the club up for sale.

Red passion would have had no new threads if it weren’t full of how shit the management of the club is under fan ownership.

Issues like this should in reality trigger a vote of no confidence in the club Board-that's what a strong Trust Chairman should instigate.

spot on, it seems the wst have never publicly confronted the problems, had that happened a few years back fans ownership would have stood half a chance

This just adds to my determination that I won't support moves like the training ground.

No faith
No trust

If only Bircham had started civil proceedings, however that would've likely caused the end of the football club. A club he clearly loves, his resolve must have been pushed on this disgraceful matter.

Personally I believe Bircham has worked through solicitors on the board's latest attempt to throw him under the bus.

He didn't make a statement this time did he? Why bother if you can compel the board to admit to their grubby activity?
