Fourth member of Supporters' Trust board quits
Published Date:

A FOURTH resignation has hit the Halifax Town Supporters' Trust board.
Mark Yates resigned this afternoon and follows Pam Burton, Roger Bottomley and Anne Stajic.
The board and fans have been split over the future direction of Halifax Town which went into adminstration in March with debts of more than £2 million pounds.
Some are backing a consortium of businessmen in its efforts to reform the existing club while others prefer an alternative option being worked up by the trust for a fans' run club.
Mr Yates said he had resigned because the trust was trying to co-opt new board members.
"I think that is the wrong way to go and is not in the spirit of the membership," he said.
"The trust is not listening to its members.
"It is not asking members' what they want and is going with its own ideas - a meeting would tell them to `shut up` and back the consortium."
