Myself and Cricko had a meeting with Ron Martin, Garry Adamson and Paul Fitzgerald from the Shrimpers Trust, prior to this evenings encounter.
It was agreed by all parties that TBV and The Trust need to work together more to drive TBV and indeed the Trust campaigns forward. So from now on TBV will have a representative at all future Trust meetings. This will enable TBV to have greater clout when it comes to approaching the club with ideas to improve the atmosphere etc etc. It will also enable TBV to have more of a say on what the new stadium should have included in the plans, to help create the best matchday experience possible for all fans. Overall we are very pleased with the "collaboration" as it helps all parties sing from the same song sheet if you like, creating one united front, rather than several.
We then moved on to the most important issue of all, as far as we are concerned...... The North Bank....
Ron is fully behind the relocation and the results of the survey so far have proved "favourable". This now means we are closer than ever to having it back from next season and we will go as far to say that it is now "highly likely" that it will happen. We will know for definite in the next couple of week's once a few minor details have been sorted amongst other parties and of course you guys will be the first to know..
Finally we discussed ideas for the Play-Off Semi's. It is likely we will have a singing section for both games and we will put on some sort of mega crowd display for the home leg (more on this in due course)
Also, keep your eyes peeled on the OS for some interesting polls over the next few weeks...
That is all for now,
Smiffy and Cricko.
