The End Of HUISA
A decision was taken to dissolve HUISA at their AGM this evening. Whilst for technical reasons this can't happen until next month, in reality HUISA has come to the end of its life.
The AGM held at the Richmond Club was attended by 30 members plus those on top table, chairman Keith Dodd, secretary Dave White, treasurer Nicki White, vice-chairman Dave Weaver and away travel organiser Richard Burkin.
The main item on the agenda was to make a decision on the future of HUISA. Both the chairman, secretary and treasurer told the meeting they didn't want to continue in their positions and as there had been no nominations to fill the posts, a decision was forced on the meeting.
Ken Kinnersley proposed that HUISA be dissolved and this was agreed but then came the problem of what to do with HUISA's shares and money. As their constitution stands any assets pass to the manager of Hereford United. However Kinnersley felt that given the situation at the club the assets should be passed elsewhere. This was agreed but then came a long debate about how this should be done and to whom the assets should pass.
Eventually it was decided that another meeting would be held on Monday September 1st to change the constitution. All members will be sent a letter/e-mail to inform them of the meeting and also give them two options about the shares and money.
The first option is to move both the shares and money to the Supporters Trust, the second option to to transfer the shares to the Trust but give the money to UITC, United in the Community.
Once that has been decided, HUISA will be no more.

MEMBERS UPDATE
HUISA recently contacted its members asking for their views and opinions on the current situation at Edgar Street, and what they would like to see happen, and we stress this was not a poll. The responses that we received are as follows.
40% of the membership replied either by e-mail, post or verbally. 65% of the replies expressed a view to a boycott of Edgar Street. 23% expressed a wish that HUISA should affiliate with the Trust and 12% revealed a willingness to carry on supporting the club.
With these results it would appear that HUISA and its members would back an Edgar Street boycott. HUISA would also look further into an affiliation with the Trust for a united voice.
It is evident that a certain amount of HUISA members, and supporters in general, still wish to carry on supporting the club at this time.
The wishes of these people MUST be duly respected and HUISA would not, as does not, condone any harassment or abuse by others expressing different opinions.
Many thanks to those who replied with their views.
Please remember our AGM on 4th August at the Richmond Place Club at 7.30 and nominations for committee /officers should be received by HUISA no later than Friday 1st August.

NOTICE OF AGM AND UPDATE
HUISA would like to give notice of their AGM. The meeting will take place at the Richmond Place Club on Monday 4th August 2014 commencing at 7.30. All members are urged to attend. We would usually have the meeting on the day of our first home game but as this is in doubt, and with lots of things to discuss, and with the potential of people boycotting the games, we felt that the AGM would be better served during the week.
As some members know, Dave White, who has been standing in as secretary for the last few months, will be standing down from the HUISA committee completely at the AGM, meaning HUISA will require a new secretary/membership administrator.
At this weeks committee meeting, the HUISA committee discussed and read through the replies received so far.
HUISA chairman Keith Dodd also tendered his resignation from the HUISA committee, again with effect from the AGM.
These two important roles will need to be filled in order for HUISA to carry on in its current role. Therefore, any member wishing to stand for election to the committee/officer role, need to notify HUISA prior to the AGM. Nominations may be submitted by contacting HUISA at PO Box 1999, Hereford, HR2 7WA, or by e-mail to huisastaff@gmail.com, stating their name, a proposer and a seconder and who MUST be current HUISA members.
At this time, Dave White, would like to take the opportunity to thank the HUISA chairman, officers and members, past to present day, for their support. Being involved in one way or another with HUFC for over half of my life, I feel that new blood is needed, with some fresh impetus. There have ben many happy times and some awful lows, but in that time I have met some great people who will always remain close to my heart and lifelong friends.
Once again, a big thanks to you all and keep the faith.

UPDATE Members views are still coming in, as some members have had to be sent letters asking for their views, HUISA have decided that Friday 11th July will be the cut-off point for collation purposes. We will, on Saturday, announce the general view from our received replies. At this moment, it would appear that our members views are broadly in line with the result of the vote carried out by HUST.
