Re: What role is the WST now playing?
Actually, it was not created with this aim. Not until 8th June, 2011 did they amend Rule 2 to include:
vi) to maintain a professional Football League club in Wrexham and at the Racecourse ground. vii) to have at least one Trust nominated director on the Board of Wrexham Football Club. viii) to raise sufficient funds to buy a stake in the club in pursuance of the above aims. In March, 2012 the original rules were replaced in full by the Sports Direct model. In February 2015 the Sports Direct rules were amended to allow Board members to serve an unlimited number of consecutive terms. |

Re: What role is the WST now playing?
The original aim was:
i) To strengthen the bonds between the Club and the community which it serves and to represent the interests of the community in the running of the club. I think the WStT should now revert to this. |

Re: What role is the WST now playing?
The same question could be posed about all of the supporters groups as their aim in the main appears to be to raise funds for the club, question is will people still want (if able)to attend race nights, quizzes etc when the club under new ownership would appear not to really need the funds?

Re: What role is the WST now playing?
As far away from the football club as possible please. They could attempt the world record for meaningless meetings and mandates possibly?

I agree that some reflection is needed, and we neither need to rush into something nor be be rail-loaded into something dreamt up by a clique. This has to be opened up, shortcomings acknowledge and addressed, and then move on. There is still a role for the WST, hence why I will keep my subscription for now. But I do want to see a more open and democratic way forward. The WST cannot fix the world, but it can help Wrexham AFC develop under R&R's stewardship.

Although there no possibility of it happening this season lets not forget that before the pandemic there were around 200 supporters who went to most away games from all over the country. I was one of them and see no reason why that should change under new ownership. |
