Trust Board Update - 26th January 2025


As a Board we recognise that emotions are running high among supporters at the moment because of concerns over the Club’s league position and levels of performance on the pitch. We know that is leading some Trust members to consider ending their membership. We absolutely understand that concern - we feel it as much as anyone.

As a reminder for all members and supporters, the funds raised by the Trust through memberships are passed to the Club in support of the work of the Academy to develop a pipeline for the Newport County of the future. If our membership numbers decline, this will restrict our ability to contribute to the Academy which we believe would be detrimental to the ability to support young talent within the wider Newport/South Wales area.

Rest assured that as a Board we are doing everything we can to work with the Club and the Chairman to ensure that on field results improve. This includes regular engagement with the Chairman, emphasising the strength of feeling among the fan base.

Our history shows that it is when things get tough that this Club and its supporters are at their strongest. Your continuing support and that of all our supporters will be essential to the short and long-term success of our Club.

As always, please get in touch directly if you would like to have a conversation with any of us about your concerns. We are always happy to hear from you.

Best wishes and keep the faith,

Arnie, Nic, Dug, Mike, Kev and Jayne
