(as Crispy would put it)
The AGM's been announced for 19th Jan at 6pm. Accounts will be available on the night and published on the OS beforehand. Nick Watkins and Jeremy Wray standing for reappointment to the board
Erm, that's about it, really.

Not sure, it's biannual IIRC so depends when he was first appointed I guess |

This is tonight.
The key issues for me are whether we broke even last season, and if Bert will remain on the board.

Fingers crossed no muppets turn up seeing it as an opportunity to slate the club. Quite apt that this is now. It's a good reminder that no matter how buggered people may think we are at the moment, we are anything but, and it is nothing compared to the mire we've been in over the last 15 years or more.

Quite so. The two big stories of the week bring it into sharp contrast: Diamandis getting told to do one and Charlie putting in a transfer request. We may well lose Charlie in this window, but if we do at least we can have confidence that any deal done is for the benefit of the club. |

Can someone ask if the position of the chef has been filled and what we can expect from the new exciting menu?

He retains some ownership of the company but recently sold a chunk of it as part of the flotation.
He is a very rich man. And one of the good guys.

from his Horse Blog Betfair floated in October, and I stood down from the company at that time. It was a ten year spell and a huge piece of my life - I’ll be surprised if I’m ever involved with a business as exhilirating and successful again. It wasn’t easy to walk away, but having had some time to reflect I’m sure it was the right decision |
