DON WOODWARD

FAQs Why has the deal taken so long? Complex deal involving WWFC and WASPS Sale of both Clubs interlinked Separation of the financial structures difficult

FAQs Why has there been a lack of communication since April? Original Heads of Terms agreed - silence Trust Board agreed not to jeopardise the WASPS deal Final details not agreed until last week!

FAQs What is the rationale behind the construction of the WWFC board? Transition phase is vital Don has negotiated the deal and will implement it Ivor & Brian’s experience and knowledge and Ivor’s FA/Football League links important to WWFC David Roberton previously on board Matt Clarke and John Derben fulfilling “supporter role”

FAQs When will the transfer embargo be lifted?

SUMMARY The Trust now owns WWFC, AP, TG and APS There is a residual debt to SH, but with significant reductions and a long interest free repayment period The Trust Board, believe the deal represents the best position that could have been negotiated The future of the Club is brighter, but tough times still ahead

You have your Club back !
