Billy has replaced Dave Noble as alternate director to the 1921 Board. This position to be reviewed prior to the next AGM.
Matt provided an update from the 1921 Board. Progress had been made regarding the training facility and it was now anticipated a partial use of this location would be in place in time for pre-season.
The club has completed the purchase of four properties, including two behind the Warwick Road End fronting on to Warwick Road which will help provide the space for a new fanzone.
The new head of academy recruitment has been appointed and will be announced soon.
Results from the fans survey are to be sent out soon, with a further survey to cover ‘involvement’ options for fans willing to volunteer their time to help CUOSC. It was hoped to arrange the next members meeting for the week before the start of next season with the possibility of a stadium tour (work at BP permitting).
Alastair had completed a governance audit that was sent to the FSA. Board members are now completing their remaining FSA training sessions.
Bank balance stood at £6326 with 1336 members. Some members have renewed their memberships.
The ‘boardroom experience’ draw for next season was expected to continue. With Brunton Park undergoing extensive redevelopment, we didn’t know for sure if we could have guests in the boardroom for each home game. More lounge space was likely to be available for next season with the East Stand boxes, lounges and boardroom being constructed.
Next meeting: June 12
