Open Forum...my opinion

[RobYeltz]

Having typed up those comments I decided not to give my own opinion along the way as I think it only fair people make up their own minds.

Two things from the evening really struck me though. I've never spoken to Colin or John before and only briefly chatted with Trevor, but the passion that these guys have was unbelieveable. When they were speaking apart from the murmurings of the young child in the room, it was silent. They had the audience in the palm of their hand. As football supporters I guess we can often only really hear the things we want to listen to but from the first minute to the last we listened intently to their words. Now if a cynical bunch of football fans were completely enthralled by what they were saying I can see why the players in the changing rooms feel they can run through walls for the club.

Listening to Steve speak of his desires to move the club forwards really was superb to hear, they truly are all singing from the same hymn sheet. Both Joe Hull and Trevor talked fondly of the increased number of supporters home and away and how WE lift them, and inspire them to perform better.

On Tuesday night I felt incredibly proud to be associated with Halesowen Town as a supporter, whether this team does get us promoted or not it certainly won't be anything to do with lack of effort whether that be from the players, the management or committee. I think we as fans need to continue to do our bit by turning up in good numbers home and away, cheers the lads off the pitch win, lose or draw (if they've given their all) and get that bar full before and after the game as the money generated will help the gaffer!

Maybe we should start a ritual of all fans at the end of the game making their way to the tunnel area to applaud the boys off the pitch?

Up the Yeltz!

Thank you, Rob, for your time and effort over recent days!

We appear to have "The Dream Team" in charge of the club, both on and off the pitch. The future is bright as long as we continue to turn out to support the team - let's hope in increasing numbers, throughout the rest of the season - and beyond.

Let's do it!!

Excellent stuff AVFCYELTZ, must of took a lot of your time up so thanks.

I agree we do have a team on and off the pitch that is passionate and wants the best for HTFC, so let's do our bit, whoever is at the games, let's be positive even if you don't want to sing, even an occasional shout of "Come on you blue boys" I am sure will help the lads out, they have proved they want this club to go places, a few years ago we were doing all we could to help the club with people who couldn't care less running the club, surely just a bit from us will go a long way. We all have one thing in common we love this football club so let's shout about it from the rooftops ! See you all later !

Thanks AVFC for the time you've put into writing this up for the benefit of those who could not make the fans forum, like me.

Judging from that there have been some interesting questions and they've answered them with a lot of positivity. You're not the only one here who is proud of supporting this proud and positive team AV, even though I did not attend the evening I am thrilled by the passion and effort from our players off the pitch and especially on the pitch! I feel proud to be apart of this club; as a follower, as a member of the clubs forum, and I've recently enquired about voluntary work because I want to get involved in the club and to show my support for the team!

And trust me AV, I've already made applauding the supporters off the pitch my ritual
