Tags confirm 'free' offer to season ticket holders- and explain their relegation decision

Hashtag United founder Spencer Owen addresses supporters questions- and promises investment and change

 

There has been much discussion across the Isthmian world following Hashtag United's decision to ask for relegation from our top flight- and founder Spencer Owen has taken to You Tube (of course) to answer supporter questions. 

 

We'll let you watch the entire broadcast below, but in summary he explains:

 

  • The decision will protect club employees from redundancy despite financial pressures
  • It will enable investment into “our new ground”- “investing over six figures.” (We assume this refers to their forthcoming groundshare at Redbridge FC)
  • Anyone who has ever had a season ticket - from 2018 onwards- can get one for free next season
  • The club will be "very different- in a good way- next season."
  • The Tags have “built a club before they have built a community”- they now need to focus on the latter

 

He also addressed a dispute between the Tags and landlords Aveley, and the rumours about a merger with Redbridge, and a great deal more.
