As the title says. There is a do or die meeting tonight Open Forum - Thursday 12th February 8pm WEYMOUTH FC officials will hold a do-or-die meeting on Thursday night at the Wessex Stadium in a last chance saloon bid to save the ailing club. Chief executive Gary Calder, director Mark Golsby, community officer Tim Davis and Weymouth Supporters’ Club chairman Ian White have organised a forum in the hope that fans, shareholders, local businesses and the wider community will turn out in force to offer their ideas and support. The meeting will start at 8pm and is open to all. http://www.theterras.co.uk/home.htm |

They have been in financial shit for a while, its a shame they are a very friendly club with a few ex Town players there, I wish them all the best.

From the station at Colchester
To the cells of Warrington
From the services at Leicester
To the slums of Northampton
We travel over England
And one day Europe too
Cos we all follow the Swindon
We're the famous Town End crew.

Not looking good for them. Manager quit yesterday saying he cannot manage the team as there is no money and hasn't been paid and all his players will be leaving soon. Weymouth will field their youth team for the rest of the season if the players are not paid by the 25th February. Their whole first team will walk away after issuing a 14 day notice to the club on the 25th of February as free agents. The haven't paid anyone in 2009 and owe £300,000 to the tax man. http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/teams/w/weymouth/7890916.stm |

Me. Non-League football is great - not that I'd want Swindon to be there.

Just the same response we'd get from plastic Prem fans if we were in the same boat. In fact, pretty much what we did get from national media when we were in the same boat or close to. Nice attitude you've got there |

so why should anyone feel sorry for a club that fucked it's self?
if our club had been run well clearly we wouldn't be in the shit but swindon fans saw the shit that was happening and did all they could to sort it out ie the turst, protestes, buying shares etc etc etc

Weymouth don't exactly have a fanbase though do they? But that doesn't mean those who follow them should be blamed for their troubles.
PaulD's statement appears to be accurate.
