To add my pennies of opinion, southernred, its ok requiring the help of the fans voluntary but in experience on many levels in all thing ASFC atm, is the fact that people to volunteer their help many many times ie shoveling snow off pitch for one but something that tends to repeat itself is that altho the club need the help the appreciation doesn't go far enough imho. I really admire Mick Shultz because what i have seen he does a heck of alot, the reliance on him is immense but would come a time before it gets beyond the pail for him & his generosity of his skills & time become the breaking point.

Same is felt within the supporters club, same members time again putting their time & effort in becoming not appreciated by lack of support with exception of the same people year after year. The club have not done anything really to help the supporters club nor is their interest unless we can offer them, something 1st - which really maddens me! I do fear for the supporters club's existance if it continues to be lacking in support - not neccessarily membership subs - BUT help & support during various activities organised by the osc ie kids party being cancelled which is a 1st as long as i've been involved with the osc usually well supported. What im pointing out is that at bottom level as osc is feeling the strain nevermind the club itself - which i think is its own victim of its operation.
