More details to follow

for there should be no need to apologise for that.

tickets are £1 each and available in books of five.

neighbours - and buy some yourself too. The cash goes straight
to the Trust, but lucky winners can also pick up prizes
- including a £250 cash prize and a Christmas hamper
amongst others.
The draw takes place on Saturday 22 December at City's final
pre-Christmas game at the New Lawn.

board on matchdays.

Supporters Trust AGM 2007
The Supporters Trust AGM was held on Sunday
2 September. Due to the flooding at Meadow
Park the meeting was held at the Civil Service Club in Escourt
Road, Gloucester.
The Trusts accounts showed a remarkable
sum of £47,901 raised during the year end to May 2007. The
Trust has paid for a whole range of items at City, from the goalkeeper's
gloves to the players meal before the cup tie at Eastleigh, from
coach travel to regular payments for electricity bills and kit
washing. Ironically and sadly large sums raised were spent on
improvements to Meadow Park and the playing surface in particular.
The meeting saw the election of board members
including new secretary Rob Kujawa. Outgoing secretary Gwenda
Halford had decided to step down and she was presented with and
thanked for her work since the reformation of the new Supporters
Club and its transformation into a Trust.
All Trust members should have by now received
notification documents and new membership cards with calling notices
for the AGM during July 2007 via the post - contact the Trust
using the contact details below if you haven't received these
documents. Renewal for 2007-08 can be either through the Buy zopiclone 3.75mg online, or standard membership at £5 for adults or £2:50
for juniors.
The new Trust Board has already held its first meeting and claim
to be ready to fight cynicism and despondency wherever they find
it. After recent results that could be quite a battle, but good
luck to them..!
Recent City Supporters Trust News: Trust
Launches Flood Appeal
NEWS RELEASE 26/08/07: TRUST REACHES OUT FOR
HELP TO REPLACE CLUB SHOP STOCK
Fans of Gloucester City Football Club have decided
to refocus their financial appeal on replacing club shop stock damaged
in the flooding to the club’s flood ravaged Meadow Park home.
The flooding of July 2007 was the worst in the history of Gloucester
and the River Severn laid waste to the club’s ground, and
included in
the damage was the shop owned and ran by the City Supporters Trust.
The sale of merchandising is a crucial part of the Trust’s
fundraising activity, and the organisation has been hard hit by
the loss of stock and damage to the club shop building itself. Previous
flooding problems left the contents uninsured.
Gloucester City Supporters Trust chairman Phil Warren said: “The
cabin containing the shop at Meadow Park alone cost £3,500.
The timing of the flood couldn’t have been worse as it was
full of pre-season items including new replica shirts, we’ve
probably lost in the region of £1,000 in stock alone. Whilst
we wait for news about the future of the club we’re concentrating
our immediate efforts on replacing the shop.”
The fresh appeal came after Gloucester City agreed a year long lease
to groundshare at the New Lawn stadium of Blue Square Premier neighbours
Forest Green Rovers. It is hoped that the new landlords will be
able to provide a facility to enable the Trust to continue to offer
Gloucester City products to fans on match days. In the meantime
the Trust is anxious to re-stock.
The BGB Southern League Premier club itself is privately owned but
fans have worked hard through a democratically elected Supporters
Trust to assist in the day to day running of the club and to raise
money to support it. Fan’s giving has exceeded £210,000
since 2001 and has funded the club’s youth team and paid bills
including physio and medical supplies, electricity and pitch maintenance.
Phil Warren continued: “Our original appeal was wonderfully
well supported, not just by our own fans but also by other clubs
and fan organisations across the country and the divisions. There
have been many individual donations, but fellow Supporter Trusts
at Bath City and Northampton Town have both given generously. We’ve
been very touched by this support and on behalf of all City supporters
I’d like to thank all those who have sent money and good wishes.
The summer floods seemed like a terrible set-back after all the
fans have done to try and get the club back on its feet, but the
good will we’ve received has certainly helped to reinvigorate
us and keep us going over the last few weeks."

NEWS RELEASE 31/07/07: FANS OF FLOOD HIT CLUB
ISSUE APPEAL FOR HELP
Fans of Gloucester City Football Club have today launched an urgent
appeal for donations to help restore damage caused by the recent floods
that have devastated the club’s Meadow Park home.
Flood
water rushed into the stadium on the evening of Sunday 22 July and by
the following morning the water stood more than eight feet deep. The
River Severn had engulfed all corners of the ground, swamping the entire
playing pitch and reaching as high as the crossbars on the goalposts.
Water entered the clubhouse, changing rooms, catering and kitchen facilities,
hospitality areas and the club’s merchandise shop. Although some
valuables could be removed from the ground the fast rising water levels
meant volunteers were unable to rescue much before police evacuated
the Hempsted area where the ground is located.
Phil Warren, chairman of the Gloucester City Supporters
Trust, said:
“The flooding has been extensive and it may yet be several days
before we’re able to get into Meadow Park to properly evaluate
the damage. The ground has been under deep floodwater for more than
a week and we are expecting the worst. The repair work will range from
the arduous task of mopping up and disinfecting of the stadium to the
likely complete renovation of the electrics and floodlight system and
replacement of catering facilities.
“We know that the city’s residents and businesses
have been hard hit and we understand that the football club cannot be
their priority as they struggle to get back to normal life. Many of
our fans and potential sponsors have also been badly affected by what
has been a catastrophe of an unprecedented scale in this area. For that
reason we are appealing to the generosity of the football community
across the country and ask for their help and donations to try and put
the club back on it’s feet. We have received some money and messages
of good will already. These are hugely encouraging, but we will need
more.”
The BGB Southern League Premier club itself is privately
owned but fans have worked hard through a democratically elected Supporters
Trust to assist in the day to day running of the club and to raise money
to support it. Fan’s giving has exceeded £210,000 since
2001 and has funded the club’s youth team and paid bills including
physio and medical supplies, electricity and pitch maintenance. The
Trust itself raises some of its money through sale of merchandising
and has been hard hit by the loss of stock and damage to the club shop
building itself. Previous incidents have meant that the club has been
unable to obtain insurance and now faces a huge clear-up bill to return
Meadow Park to a state where it can again host football matches.
Phil Warren continued:
“Through our Trust the fans had helped rescue this club from the
point of extinction, an incredible fundraising effort and success story
for Gloucester. After a summer where volunteers have worked long hours
renovating and painting the ground and where we have spent fans’
donations on improving the stadium and pitch this does seem like a real
kick in the teeth. However, the club has already been through a lot
and our fans must be amongst the most resolute and determined anywhere.
I hope with the help of other football fans and the local community
we can come back from this latest setback all the stronger.”

£200K Up!
The grand total of funds raised by the Trust since
the Supporters Club was reconstituted in February 2001 has now passed
another impressive milestone figure of £200,000 (at end of
April 2007). It's not just in the volume off the T-End you can feel
the pride and passion the fans feel for the club - feel that wad
of dosh!
Club funds have been boosted by two recent fundraisers.
The annual Ruby's night of Cantonese food n' fundraising clocked
up a record sum in excess of £2,000 for the Trust - beating
even previous years impressive sums raised at this event. Well done
to all involved.
The race night is another reliable regular boost to Trust coffers
and this year's event held in February raised more than £650.
As always those extra pennies and pounds keep the
Trust going, and in turn that plays a significant part in keeping
the City's football club going. The money invested by the Trust
in the pitch is now really starting to show, while the youth team
is supported by fans' cash, and some of the extra money also helps
Tim Harris bring in the odd extra player here and there. The money
also helps with sudden financial demands - such as replacing the
under pitch pump which recently had to be urgently replaced at a
cost of over £500 - cash the club itself wouldn't have readily
found.

The current data to be submitted for the Food and Drug Administration's assessment of metformin as a treatment for type II diabetes does not include efficacy data. In addition, this review was not designed to cover the safety aspects for any specific metformin regimen, whether a single dose or multiple medications given over prescription drug prices us vs canada a longer period.
In addition, the information provided this article was based on an in-depth analysis of a limited number published data sets and bases. Since the number of participants has grown substantially since the early 1990s, an in-depth analysis is necessary for a rigorous assessment of the safety metformin as a treatment.
For example, it is important to know that buy lorazepam online with mastercard some trials reported "mortality" as the primary end point rather than as a measure of the effects metformin on diabetes. As a result, they appear to be based on more limited data. Therefore, one shouldn't draw conclusions based on the studies of this particular population.
As mentioned earlier, there are several randomized double-blind studies, and we have included those in the "Safety" section above because their results are generally favorable.
Conclusions
Although metformin is currently not approved by the American Diabetes Association for treatment of type II diabetes, there are reports that may prove favorable for the treatment of diabetes as a major disorder in the United States. This review suggests that when followed for an extended period of time, metformin may have the potential to be

However, the potential benefits of metformin to type II diabetes patients continue to undergo extensive medical and scientific scrutiny because this drug has yet to become as widely prescribed in diabetes it has type I diabetes, which is the predominant form of diagnosis.
Metformin and Diabetes: A Risk/Benefit Analysis
"The data indicate that metformin reduces the incidence of cardiovascular events in diabetic patients and, some studies, may be as effective or more than a statin with regard to incidence of death and cardiovascular events. The data have not shown a protective effect of metformin against cancer, kidney disease, and myocardial infarction. There is no clear evidence to suggest that metformin reduces the risk of stroke in diabetic patients."
A Risk/Benefit Analysis of Metformin for the Treatment Diabetes: A Review
In June 2011, The New York Times published an article titled, "How Metformin Can Help Type II Diabetics." Based on the results of published clinical trials regarding metformin, its potential benefits, and the available information safety information, New York Times' article reported that an individual could gain as much 10 percent Lorazepam 2mg 120 $340.00 $2.83 $306.00 of health

Trust '500 Club' - Please Dig Deep.
Call it the 500 Club, or call it the club's lifeline,
there is no doubt that the regular standing order contributions of City
fans are the main source of steady income for the Trust. This income
means the Trust has repeatedly been able to put its hand in its pocket
to help the club out when times are at their worst, while also helping
the club by extra items ranging from Matt Bath's goalkeeping gloves,
to medical supplies and specialist machinary to clean up the post-match
litter at Meadow Park. The term '500 club' is a little misleading -
there are no prizes and beyond membership of the Trust and a mention
in the club programme there is no award for joining. The benefit is
simply the continued existence of Gloucester City AFC.
