‘It’s So Unfair,’ The Death of Women’s Egalitarian Football. Lewes and Durham Women to be Sacrificed at the Altar of Greed.

“There might be some casualties,” Campbell says, “but that’s going to be the reality.” Thus Sue Campbell, Head of Women’s Football with The Football Association 2016-23, glibly evaluates the future of the  Lewes FC Women and Durham FC Women continued presence in the top 2 flights of women’s football. I have argued ever since the start up of the Women’s Premiership and Championship that women’s…

Lewes keeper Tatiana Saunders scored the winning goal yesterday in the win over Liverpool. It was a crazy goal too: https://twitter.com/lewesfcwomen/status/1521170601704054790

OMG!!! That's even further away than the Damallsvenskan goal of the year! Amazing stuff

It was so lovely and such a great experience to watch and celebrate with @manutdwomen win against @lewesfcwomen yeaterday but more importantly win the FA Womens Championship. Since I decided to give it a go and watch my first game of Womens Football in October I have fallen in love with it and mainly how different it is from the mens. It has been many a weekend my only thing I had to look forward to and provided me with an great way to postpone Sunday blues (without breaking the bank or my waistline). I love its inclusive environment and as a trans woman it has been great to see great womens sport and its inspiring to see so many strong women and great athletes. Carnt wait until September when we smash the @fawsl. #womensfootball #thisgirlcan #champions🏆 #fachampionship #fangirl (at Leigh Sports Village) https://www.instagram.com/p/BxYR206DS0vaJSMN81-jKwf4_Bl_vySFuy1zUo0/?igshid=ug10esejjrqa

Lewes FC and the Death of our Community Club.

For nearly 15 years Lewes FC have never really fitted into the community club mould. Too many directors from the outset simply followed a non-conformist independent directive. The rules of community ownership are enshrined in our constitution and have been neglected. Prior to the launch of Equality FC many directors fought to establish the principles of a community club for Lewes, but since…

Lewes FC, Poirot and the Murder of the Mercury 13 Investment Deal. A Mystery Spoof.

The diminutive Miss Lemon was daydreaming in the stuffy office of the great detective, Hercule Poirot, the windows were all closed in case germs enter the room. The fastidious Poirot always maintained they played havoc with his poor digestion. Miss Lemon knew the real problem laid in his awful diet, but you never questioned the great Poirot. ‘Ah there you are Miss Lemon, perhaps you could book…

Lewes FC's Case for the Defence. But no Prosecution in Sight. The Town Hall Presentation Part I

During the ‘consultation’ period to consider the Mercury 13 proposal we saw very little consulting at the first Town Hall meeting. Just the case for the defence. One sided argument in favour fronted by the Board of Directors. In this first blog about this crucial ‘meeting’ I will do my own ‘myth busting’ about the proposal. The first half hour was essentially why the board feel we need to accede…

Lewes FC Women Set to Leave The Dripping Pan?

I mentioned in a previous blog that the Lewes FC Women may leave the Pan. However, now more facts have been released, I would bet on it. https://atomic-temporary-127910257.wpcomstaging.com/2023/09/13/why-the-mercury-13-involvement-with-lewes-fc-is-doomed-to-fail On Friday, the board released the long-awaited Q&A document with a little more detail on the Mercury 13 proposal of the investment…

LET’S KEEP IT REAL FC

By Francesca “One Owner, One Share, One Vote” from the Club’s website. Sounds like the stuff democratic dreams are made of. The Club rules also talk about the Club conducting business for the benefit of the community served by the Club and not for the profit of its owners. These are all powerful words and makes a fan truly believe they are a part of an inclusive, welcoming footballing…

Lewes FC Recycling Inertia. Sort It Now.

Why on earth can Lewes FC just not adopt an up-to-date recycling practice tomorrow

Lewes FC Recycling Inertia. Sort It Now. How can the ‘politically correct’ Lewes FC, specialists in liberal ethics, still justify plastic glass use for even one more game? Plastic pint glasses at Lewes FC even recycled can end up with children scavenging through them in Africa and the Far and Middle East PLASTIC GLASS RECYCLING. WHY? So why have so many clubs adopted an ethical plastic glass…

WHY? So why have so many clubs adopted an ethical plastic glass recycling scheme? Because it is so easy to do. To not do so is totally irresponsible. Enormous energy is used to make plastic glasses…

Bedtime For Democracy at Lewes FC. Co Opting Farce

Bedtime For Democracy at Lewes FC. Co Opting Farce

As a fan owned community club democracy is very important. However the annual elections to the board are underwhelmingly promoted by our existing Board meaning there are generally not enough candidates to ensure a vote. The prospective candidates therefore join the Board unelected.

With this in mind it is therefore crucial the Board, with basically no mandate, act as democratically as they…

How Co Opted Board Places At Community Football Clubs Should Not Be Managed At Lewes FC

How Co Opted Board Places At Community Football Clubs Should Not Be Managed At Lewes FC

How The System of Co Opting Bo

At Lewes FC we have an elected Board. They make the decisions. Under our constitution we are also allowed to co opt a few other people onto the Board. They have no voting rights.

It is another excellent part of our constitution.

  The point of co opting is to bring new people into the club to help develop the community club ethos and draw the club closer to the…
