Following the excitement of the FA Cup victory the Trust feels this is an important time to build on the success both on and off the field...

The board of Trust In Yellow was pleased to hear that the long awaited floodlight scheme has started and that work should be completed in the next few weeks. The recent damage to one of the pylons on the popular side only confirmed how important it is to get new lights in place quickly.

It was back in 2010 that members voted to support such a scheme and TIY raised its share of the money required by May 2012. Originally we were told by the club that the lights were to be in place by the summer of 2011 but there have been various delays until this summer when the Trust, shareholders and supporters were told they would be installed by November. The Trust welcomed the sponsorship of County Insurance to cover the club’s share of the total cost. Following the latest delay the Trust wrote to the club asking for clarification. In particular we would like to know:- what were the reasons for this delay?

Has the Football Stadia Improvement Fund agreed to fund 50% of the scheme?

What will be the total cost of the project?

When is it envisaged that the new lights will first be used for a match?

It is hoped the club will agree to meet the Trust to discuss these points and perhaps long terms plans for any further ground improvements which the Trust can support with the club. Until the Trust knows what its financial commitments are with regards to the lights it is obviously impossible to plan its budget for the future.

A fantastic 450 people have booked on the coaches so far. The Trust would like to urge all those who have not yet paid to do so as soon as possible so you can receive your travel tickets. This can be done in the club shop between 5pm and 7pm on Friday or in the Trust office at the Wrexham game on Boxing Day.

Members will also be entitled to a 10-20% discount on phone repairs (depending on the nature of the repair). The shop can be found inside Wayfarers Arcade which is located on Lord Street.
