Help Gateshead Fans Rebuild Their Football Club
Donation protected
Gateshead Soul Supporters Association needs your help to save football in Gateshead.
Our club, Gateshead FC, has been completely decimated by a spiteful and morally bankrupt group of charlatans following the end of the 2018/19 season. The current situation at 'Gateshead Football Club' is nothing short of abysmal and a complete insult to the borough of Gateshead which has had a football club proudly representing it for almost 90 years. Following the sacking of all staff members via email, the Gateshead Football Club we used to know is no more.
Countless lies have been told over the course of the season as the 89-year tenure of a football club under the Gateshead name playing in Gateshead is set to come to a shameful end. And with no players, staff or home - it's heartbreaking to admit that the evil which somehow got its clutches onto our once proud football club has well and truly killed it. 'Gateshead Football Club' is now nothing more than a name owned by some charlatans who seem perfectly content destroying it with no sense of remorse or decency. It is beyond saving and we cannot afford to wait any longer for the FA to act.
We can no longer give our support to the club under the current regime and are exploring other avenues, the foremost of which is looking into the creation of a new club to ensure football survives in Gateshead under the Gateshead name.
Rebuilding our club will be a real project that we want everyone to be part of. Any new club will be considered for step 7 in the non-league pyramid, but can get special dispensation to achieve as high as step 5. We would look to have a competitive budget which can be achieved through various income streams the most important of which will be this Go Fund Me page. This will help provide a solid foundation and starting point to allow our club to hit the ground running for the 2019/20 season.
All money raised will be deposited into the Gateshead Soul account and will be solely used to ensure there is a football club representing the borough and the people of Gateshead. The fund will be used towards the costs associated with running a football club.
We will have a club to support, one which gives fans a true representation on its running and organisation. One that we can be proud of on and off the pitch.
