Chairman’s end of Season Round-up
As chairman of Lincoln City Supporters' Trust I recognise how had and difficult the last 12 months have been for he Club, the Trust, the staff and for us all as individual supporters, but as the words of the song say; "when the going gets tough the tough get going."
Tough decisions have had to be made by the Trust Board during the past season, just like they have by the Club Board, but I'm proud of the way the Trust Board have stuck to the task, followed our constitution in making the big decisions and in my opinion made the correct decisions. That view has been endorsed by the vast majority of Trust members who regularly through face-to-face personal contact, comments at Trust surgeries and fans' forums, e-mails and letters have given their views, comments and thoughts to the
Trust Board members.
As a board we always welcome - we are a members organisation!! - and listen to all views. It is one of my favourite tasks to listen to fans/members giving their constructive views and I can say, even in a difficult season like we've had, how sensible and realistic the vast majority of them have been even if I don't fully agree with them.
Football is a game of opinions and the Trust Board and I fully support the right of you the supporter to be able to express your views in an appropriate and correct manner. I would, however, add that I don't think it has been helpful during the past 12 months that a very, very small number of people have, it appears, done things to try to undermine the Club and Trust
boards.
I would like to take this opportunity to publicly thank the Trust Board for their efforts this season and to wish the members of the Board who are standing down all the best for the future.
The Trust
Enjoy the summer break and here's to a more successful 2012/13 campaign.
Chris Ashton,
Chairman,
