Title: Membership update
Post by: Blue and Gold Trust on June 12, 2025, 10:11:31 AM
The last few months has seen an increase in membership by 50, with 41 being new members and 9 members re-joining. 
Total membership as it stands is 127.
The greater the membership, the greater the supporter influence should the Trust join forces with Turn Sports Investments in securing the future of the football club. 
Perhaps this is the time for all fans to come together.

Good to see so many newbies joining up in support of the Trust.

It seems time is moving on for this deal to be completed.  Maybe the Trust could give its members an update on where things are currently standing ?  With so much going on there must be some kind of update

It would be good, even logical to know the current state of play regarding such as ownership, Mr Cleeve's current and future situation and fan involvement via The Trust. Just an interim update would be welcome.

A welcome increase in membership. It would be good to see that growing even more to give the Trust a show of strength in negotiations in the future. Agree with Mallard, an update of what is actually happening would be appreciated.

Well that's a good start with 50 new members but it could be better so I would appeal to more the fans out there that are humming and harring  wether to join the blue and gold surporters club to join the more fans we have the stronger we will be.I personally can't wait for the new  season to start it looks like the new manager really means business with all the new players coming in

It's NOT a club!

It's a Trust!

Because it's a Supporters Trust not a Supporters club!

It is the Blue & Gold Supporters' Trust!

Have a word with one of the Trust Directors. I'm sure they will explain the difference.

New members always welcome.   :scarf:

Simply because it is a Trust and not a Club.

Apparently this was explained to you previously at the recent meeting you attended.

Don't forget it's also a Society.
You'd need a big badge to get Blue & Gold Supporters Trust Club Society on.

No I don't want to alter anything, after all the B & G have done a great job raising the amount of money,but I would like to see the membership grow. I have been spreading the word the more members we get the stronger we will be. It is growing with 50 extra members joining already so I hope it keeps growing to maybe 150 plus
