Barbecue and AGM

Jacqui Greethurst • June 10, 2024

A day filled with cheer and a 60th Birthday!

It was a beautiful day in the Hampshire countryside as over 50 Hampshire Whites gathered for our annual AGM and family barbecue. This year it also included a special milestone birthday for one of our key members. Jeff , who drives the transport for us frequently, and who runs the barbecue, along with Paula, has reached the grand old age of 60.  Paula organised a wonderful cake, presented to Jeff by his son, Josh, and 'Happy Birthday' , sung as only a football crowd can, rang out across the garden.


Before the business part ofthe afternoon started everyone enjoyed the food, had a few drinks, admired Jeff's LUFC 'shed' and caught up on the season just gone with much discussion on next season.

Then the business part of the meeting. Click here for summary of AGM. The secretary, Jacqui and treasurer, Chris giving their information and the new chair, Trevor eagerly awaiting his turn.  Members, of course, hanging on their every word - finding out how much it was going to cost them!

A wonderful afternoon was rouunded off with a very entertaining 'question and answer' session from Alan Sutton. He gave a really good insight into his time from Billy Bremner's management until he left in 2013. He told us stories about the players and avoided certain questions with humour and lightheartedness - we still don't know the truth regarding Eric Cantona's leaving Leeds! It was great to hear stories about players we admire but also to understand how many of us have misjudged players in the past - and probably now!

Some left with souvenirs of the day!

In January 2024 my dad took me to see my first ever Leeds United game. I liked it so much I asked if we could go again. But my Dad said we would have to see as it cost too much for travel. We kept watching on the TV and I kept on at my Dad about going to Elland Road again. Then in July time we met this man in the Range in Andover, I later found out he was Simon the Pie man. We got talking about Leeds United because of his tattoos and he told us about the Hampshire Whites. That night my Dad filled in some forms online and signed us up to the Hampshire Whites. Before long we got our badges in the post and we were members.

A rare trip to Wembley for Hampshire Whites!
By David Davies May 6, 2024
To be so close to clinching automatic promotion back to the premier league and then fall away at the end was disappointing to see. But, looking at the overall picture and the mass exodus of players leaving or wanting to leave during pre-season the team have done incredibly well under the management of Daniel Farke.
