Welcome to the Preston Supporters Group (PSG) website, www.psg.me.uk. PSG is an independent supporters group for English Championship football club Preston North End.
PSG was formed in 2000 following the realisation that Preston North End no longer had an independent supporters group. We thought then, and still do, that all clubs need a supporters group that is not accountable to anyone at the club they support. Some people don't agree with the idea of being "independent" and because of this it took a long time for PSG to be accepted. At the outset we were seen as something of a reactionary group but that was far from the truth.
PSG is now almost ten years old. There have been many changes in those near ten years both at PSG and at Preston North End but one thing has always remained the same; that is our steadfast support for our football club.
This season will be no different in that we will continue to support PNE and its fans in any way we possibly can Ð and we'll enjoy it!
Unfortunately last season saw PSG withdraw its membership of CAST, a decision not taken lightly as we were the main instigators of the whole idea, but we will still endeavour to do as much for the supporters as we possibly can and our Fan's Involvement section on our committee will be working hard once again to make this season a successful one both on and off the pitch.
Our annual charity football match (in association with PNE-Online) is becoming more and more successful with each year. A massive thanks must go to all who are involved in the organisation of this event, also a big thank you to all who attended the game.
Our chosen charity for this season is St Catherine's Hospice; please help us to raise much needed funds for this worthy cause.
The PSG Away Travel Club will be "on the road" again in 2009/2010 and of course, as usual, is open to all. Our only disappointment so far with the travel club is our inability to obtain regular travel for our less-abled members/supporters, but we will never give up in our attempts to find adequate transport at a cost we can afford.
Geoff Ollerton, PSG Chairman
