Q. WHY WAS BST FORMED?
​
We didn’t get to be called ‘the Mighty Pool’ for nothing.
​
Blackpool Supporters Trust (BST) is an INDEPENDENT, SUPPORTIVE and PROGRESSIVE organisation that exists for Blackpool Fans, our Club and our Community.
​
BST was originally founded to bring about a change of ownership at Blackpool FC and to restore integrity, pride and professionalism at our great club.
​
This objective was successfully achieved in 2019.
​
​Over the past few years we have had to re-invent ourselves; moving from a protest group, to one that works constructively to help improve every facet of our football club and the community to which it belongs.
​
We are SUPPORTIVE of the current custodian Simon Sadler in what he is trying to achieve, and we genuinely hope that never changes.
Q. HOW DO I JOIN THE TRUST?
As a member you can currently nominate anyone once to be entered into a draw for one game.
​
If you and the child are both members you can nominate them as often as you like, or even ask for them to be put into every BST mascot draw for every game.
The only catch is, they can only win the mascot prize once a season. email: listening@blackpoolsupporterstrust.com with your nominations any time.
​
Remember: If you want them in every draw until they win, please join them to BST first!
