Why join the Trust we hear you ask?  A good question.  A lot of “older” fans know the history of the Trust and our role in helping save us from extinction back in 1992.  The Club has had one or two close runs since then and the Trust has been on hand to help it through the bad times.  We have also raised thousands of pounds towards projects both at Rockingham Road and Latimer Park for the benefit of the Club and fans along with community initiatives etc etc etc.  Ultimately, we have tried and succeeded in some instances to be involved in the Club at a higher level.  Previously, we have had Trust Chairmen involved on the Board under Peter Mallinger and Imraan Ladak albeit it quite briefly!  We still endeavour to obtain a place at that level so that the fans have a voice in how the Club may be run.  We are currently talking to George about this – he has offered us a possible place on the Club’s management committee and we are pursuing this with him.  Watch this space.

Talking of community projects, the Trust has teamed up with the Club today to collect food for the Kettering and District Foodbank.  We are sure Poppies fans have shown their generosity for this good cause.

Today we welcome Bishop Stortford to Latimer Park.  Like us, The Blues got off to a very good start to the season.  Both teams are still in the mix at this early stage of the season so will be looking to stay in touch with the current leaders with 3 points today. 

Albeit our exit from the FA Cup was very disappointing, most of us have been around long enough to know that back to back FA Cup runs are rare particularly for us!  Last season is filed away in that Poppies memory box and we have to crack on with this season and making an impact in the League.  Looking forward to the Trophy run though…….!!
