Wayne Price – Election Address and CV

488094360_710ee595d5_m

My name is Wayne Price, 35, based in Manchester and have been a fan since my dad took me to my first game, when we lost to Mansfield in May1977. If you need to put a face to a name, I was one of the guys who did the sponsored walk from The Racecourse to Cardiff’s Millennium Stadium for the LDV trophy final and won the first WST’s Fans’ extra mile award.

All those who have put themselves up for election have been invited to state what potential we think we would add to the WST board. I like to think I’d bring my business pragmatism to the board, as was suggested/inferred in the last joint statement by the Club & WST board. This is because I run my own web design and web marketing business in Manchester. As well as bringing business experience to the board, I’d liketo think I’d be bringing webmaster skills, marketing and communication experience as these are connected with what I do everyday. These skills could be used to help the WST in a number of ways, some of those I have suggested below:

Marketing experience
- To attract new members.
- To retain current members or memberships that have lapsed.
- To attract local businesses for the suggested WST consortium to takeover the club when Nev Dickens & Geoff Moss exit.

Communication experience
- To increase the feedback on the WST from members, fans and those who live in and around Wrexham.
- To simplify and increase the clarity of the WST message & aims.
- To increase the communication with local business for the suggested WST takeover consortium.

Webmaster Skills
- Increase the effectiveness of the web site.
- Increase the effectiveness of the internet communication between the Trust, its members, fans, local businesses and those who live in and around Wrexham.
- Increase the effectiveness of online fundraising.

I along with the other nominees Phil Wynne, Len Willett, Colin Bithell and Lindsay Jones 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.
