Club call for unity
The Hereford United board of directors
have released the following statement through ClubCall (09068
121645):
“It is with increasing concern that
we view the public debate, claims and counter-claims,
about the future of the Club. As the representatives of
the Club’s shareholders, most of whom are
supporters, we feel that we should be prominent in future
discussions and decisions. We are therefore urging the
personnel involved to think about the implications for
the future well-being of the Club, put any personal
feelings to one side, and sit around a table with us. The
purpose being to overcome the impasse between the
different parties, ensuring 2003 is reached without the
Club facing the prospect of going out of business.
Discussions with any proposed consortium who have the
interests of the Club at heart would also be welcomed.”
