I understand where Devon Swan is coming from - I support(Ed) Staines Town and not Staines Llamas. If it isn’t Staines Town it would be easier to walk down to Spelthorne Sports and watch them (cheaper drinks as I’m already a member through the cricket club).
However, this is not Staines Llamas - it is Staines AND Llamas ( we cannot use the word Town as STFC still technically exists) and I hope that some time in the future we can be called Staines Town Llamas and claim the history of both Staines Llamas and Staines Town.
The new board is a split of Llamas and Town committee members. It is not a merger as we have nothing to merge but it is a coming together of two teams under one banner as a club for the community of Staines with a potentially better future in terms of facilities than we had before.
I also don’t see why the idea of the club being owned by the supporters through debentures in the near future will not work. Once this happens than the club will truly be a supporters club.
Staines Llamas need us and we bloody well need them.
Ultimately this is the best way of having a viable future and at least I have a game to watch on a Saturday afternoon next season.
Dixon divided STFC and its supporters. Making this new venture a success by all getting behind it will be the best way of proverbially sticking two fingers up at him.
