The Trust's Pen Pics and Profiles 21:15 - Mar 11 with 23501 views | TheResurrection | I see there's been an update of sorts here... https://www.swanstrust.co.uk/meet-the-trust-board/ The ones they've got up already you can't help feel at the end of reading their profile shouting FAIL!! Look forward to reading Clasie's ALAN LEWIS Name Alan Lewis (Elected Member to 31 July 2018) Occupation Retired Civil Servant Current role Chairman / Membership Why did you join the Trust Board: Joined the Trust as a member in 2001 and retirement subsequently offered an opportunity to contribute more fully to the organisation hence my applying to join the Board. I was elected in 2008 What attributes/skills are you able to bring to the Board. I have a methodical approach and organisational skills which I hope have been of value to the Board. The valuable resource of ‘time’, has also been something I have been able to bring, although that is something which is an increasing challenge. How do you feel the Trust can further develop its representation of members and the wider fan base. Positive working relationships with the Club at all levels is important as is raising the Trust profile across the wider fan base. FAIL RON KNUSZKA https://www.swanstrust.co.uk/ron-knuszka/ Name: Ron Knuszka (Elected Member to 31st July 2018) Occupation: Retired — Health & Safety Officer Swansea University Current Role: Community / Fundraising (time previously spent as Trust Chairman) Why did you join the Trust Board : One of the ‘original’ fans that came together in setting up the Supporters Trust A firm supporter of the Trust aims and ensuring that fans continue to have a say in the running of their club. What attributes/skills are you able to bring to the Board I possess good management and decision making skills (developed whilst serving in the Armed forces and professional background) Have a positive and realistic approach in dealing with day to day situations and long-term planning. How do you feel that the Trust can further develop its representation of members and the wider fan base Strong belief in working closely with the club, develop and improve upon all forms of communications, look at ways of developing encouraging younger fans to become more involved with the Supporters Trust FAIL ANDREW MCGLASHAN https://www.swanstrust.co.uk/andrew-mcglashan/ Name Andrew McGlashan Occupation Corporate Solicitor Current role Co-opted Member to 31 July 2018 Why did you join the Trust Board: I feel that this is a crucial period for the Trust and I didn’t feel like I could sit back and not offer to help in any way that I could. I believe my skills and experience can help with the current negotiations the Trust finds itself in. What attributes/skills are you able to bring to the Board. I am a corporate solicitor that qualified in 2012 and I have a lot of experience in UK and international corporate deals. As a result I have a strong background in negotiation, project management and effective communication. My experience also includes working on a large number of deals with US parties and in particular private equity / venture capitalist houses. Given the current ownership of the Swans I believe my experience can add value to the existing experience of the Trust’s board. How do you feel the Trust can further develop its representation of members and the wider fan base. I think effective two way communication is vitally important. There needs to be increased canvassing of opinion from the fan base and also increased use of social media by the Trust to communicate with its members. During the period of 2014-2016 I wrote a number of articles on the Swans for a variety of websites. As a result I have forged a good network of Swansea writers & podcast producers who I believe can also be extremely useful in helping to increase communications between the Trust and its members. FAIL RHYS THOMAS https://www.swanstrust.co.uk/rhys-thomas/ Name Rhys Thomas ( Co-Opted member to 31 July 2018) Occupation Electrical Contractor Current role Social media/marketing Why did you join the Trust Board: Joined the Trust as a co-opted member in 2017 specifically to assist with the social media. I was frustrated with the way the Trust was communicating via social media so threw my hat into the ring rather than stand by and watch the board struggle. What attributes/skills are you able to bring to the Board. I have a creative yet logical mind that I feel is best applied to strategy, systems and problem-solving. My entrepreneurial mind-set is something I feel is of good value to the Board. I am the youngest member of the board and I feel that I am able to bring a different perspective to the board. How do you feel the Trust can further develop its representation of members and the wider fan base. Positive working relationships with the Club at all levels is important. Using new and emerging technology to reach, communicate and bring value to members and potential members is critical. FAIL [Post edited 11 Mar 2018 21:21]

The Trust's Pen Pics and Profiles on 21:34 - Mar 11 with 7251 views | PozuelosSideys | As much hard work and dedication as these individuals surely put in, i now know exactly why the Americans dont give one solitary fck about listening to the Trust. There is absolutely zero there to even make them think twice - the experience or intellectual nouse is missing from the Trust utterly. No offence to the individuals, but they could do with some help from people who come from a similar world to the Yanks and who have played similar games. | ![](/images/avatars/10793.gif) |

It seems you haven't bothered since you've been on mate. Here you go, fill it out for us. Current role? Why did you join the Trust Board? What attributes/skills are you able to bring to the Board?

I am thinking of including a line saying that the Trust should rescind its previous call for Huw Jenkins to resign and then sit back and enjoy watching you find a way of disagreeing with it. | ![](/images/avatars/8641.gif) |

At least you'd have done something then Cude, anything like.... Do you have anything to share with us, apart from childish quips? I'd say there's a sizeable majority on here that thinks the Trust stinks. Do you find me arguing against that? Get your profile done.

The one thing you had to remember to do regarding the Trust and you forgot? Forgive for saying this but in that case it hardly installs any confidence that you'll be prepared to do anything of note to improve things if you can't get a simple thing like that done. | ![](/images/avatars/0.gif) |
