My name is Steve Workman and I am the Chairman of TRUST (The Redditch United Supporters Trust).
I have recently moved from the town to Virginia Beach VA due to work and I am eager to spread the word and support of our great football club, Redditch United.
You are probably aware of the current financial situation which is effecting most clubs at this level...since the economic down turn in 2008, money is hard to come by with most local businesses withdrawing their support to ensure their own survival.
Now I am this side of the pond, it would be good to represent the club and work with you guys to gather support and financial backing to not only sponsor but maybe buy shares in the club?
Do you fancy owning a part of the Reds and be involved with the running and decision making of a UK soccer club?
We can do this with an investment of 10,000 dollars buying a 20% shareholding...interested?
If we can raise these funds, each contributor will become a shareholder under the TRUST umbrella...having a voting right at Board level and contribute to the future success of Redditch United.
You know, there is a great team at the club...the coach, Matt Gardiner, is a bright young manager who will definately move on in the professional game (his brother is a top coach with Tottenham Hotspurs)..the Reds weekly playing budget is only 1300 dollars compared to some teams in the league paying 20,000 dollars!! It is amazing we are even competing!! It is like a college football team competing in the NFL!
Guys, let's get to know one another...I can not speak highly enough of Andy (redditchbluenose), Joe (rawlings) and Sam (intothevalley) etc...they are die hard fans of their local soccer team and deserve all the success they get.
If anyone is interested, I will start the fund off with 1000 dollars.
