Cllr Colin Bithell - Election Address and CV at Dragons News (from Wrexham Football Club)

Cllr Colin Bithell

I have been a Wrexham supporter for forty years.

I have been elected a local councillor for thirty-seven years with experience of Community, District and currently County level with Flintshire County Council. I am vice chairman of the County Audit Committee.

I am also a governor of the Welsh College of Horticulture at Northop.

During my working like at Vauxhall Motors I was a Production Controller and also the Union Staff Convenor. I have also previously served as a member of the Independent Tribunal Service.

I along with the other nominees Lindsay Jones, Wayne Price, Len Willett and Phillip Wynn support the current WST strategy of building a local consortium to bid for and run our club.However we feel that this strategy needs to be widened to include other stakeholders such as the local authority and other organisations. We believe that the key to the clubs future prosperity is the provision of a new stand on the Kop and that the WST must work in partnership with all stakeholders to bring this about. We believe we can bring new energy and ideas to assist the existing WST board members in their negotiations with the club owners and other parties, to ensure the club and the Racecourse is protected for the benefit of current and future generations of Wrexham AFC fans.
