The West Ham United Independent Supporters’ Association (WHUISA) have been invited to meet with WestHam owner David Sullivan next Tuesday the association have announced to their members today. They say as a democratic group, the meeting will be guided by the questions the majority of their paid members would like addressed.
The email to paid-up members says “As such, we have compiled a list of possible questions and would ask that you to select the eight you believe are most important. The questions with the most votes will then be put to Mr Sullivan.
WHUISA will be joined at the meeting with a representative from the Football Supporter Federation who will act as a neutral party. Full minutes of the meeting will be made available as soon as possible as the meeting ends.
Following the meeting and the distribution of the minutes, there will still be a full WHUISA meeting on March 31st and this meeting will have no impact whatsoever on the vote due to take place at that meeting. Members votes are sovereign and we will enact our members wishes.
To submit your chosen questions, please complete the survey using the link below by midday on Monday 19th March. Non members will need to register with WHUISA by 6:00pm tomorrow in order to take part – www.whuisa.org/join
Due to the short time frame involved, we are unable to extend the deadline.”
Claret and Hugh understand that WHUISA has more than trebled their membership in the last few weeks.
Let nobody continue to accuse the board of being unwilling to listen to fan groups. This proves that they are willing to listen, and squashes the argument that they aren’t listening. It will be interesting to read the questions put to David Sullivan and his responses. COYI
Matty , who says they don’t listen ! It’s what’s not delivered that’s what has been the problem . Mind you don’t think they’ve ever asked for the majorities opinions on anything , the move , the new badge
I hope that Sullivan doesn’t listen too much to the fans. You can’t have the lunatics running the asylum. The fans are almost always wrong but never have to face the consequences. They wanted Sam out, They wanted Bilic in, They wanted Bilic to stay even though he should have gone before Payet left. They didn’t like Arnie and moaned about his cost. They destroy players etc etc. When are these fans going to realise that they have to accept some blame at some point?
Absolute nonsense comment. Blame the fans for what.. ultimately it was the board that didn’t Sam allardyce or bilic..at the beginning Annie had an attitude, and he knew he was awful..What are you talking about..
The fans don’t decide who we buy, or more to the point fail to buy. Nor do they pick the team. Nor do they decide the tactics. Nor do they under perform most weeks. They don’t make ridiculous promises and then fail to deliver. They don’t make a profit from the club but let’s blame them anyway.
so unless you are an activist or active in a west ham supporters group then you have to rely on them to speak for you ! No sorry these people don’t speak for the majority of west ham fans, there are old people who don’t use computers or media platforms, fans who don’t bother with childish twitter arguments and other fans who couldn’t care less about social media, a very narrow minded intent on disruption and having a lovely march to shout and holler group of fans are making a mockery of our club. you are the worst fans in the league.
Are you Blakey from on the buses?
Keep your wig on Blakey. Whuisa is a legitimate group affiliated to the Football Supporters Federation.They are a liaison group between board and fans. They represent all West Ham fans wether you are one of their members or not.
you obviously didn’t read my comments did you. how on earth can they represent fans who don’t join groups or give group their mandate ? they take it upon themselves and use the information selectively. so if they don’t represent me how can they represent all fans? do you get it? never worn a wig.
youre absolutely right iateublakey. these activist groups dont represent the majority of west ham fans. they just think they do and try and jump on or mock anyone who disagrees with them.
The fans who have been critical of the board have good reason to do so. Despite this they take continual abuse on this site. They have been called thugs, scum, morons, filth knuclescrapers cancers and other delightful names. Then they are accused of jumping on and mocking those who disagree with them. Oh! The irony. Pot and kettle spring to mind.
Keep your wig on Mooro.
So tell me Blakey, how will you get your thoughts and ideas across to the board. This is what the board have instigated in the attempt to take us forward.
