Can I suggest that if there is a pub available with a function room that the meeting is held there rather than at the club?

Whilst we always encourage supporters trusts to develop good relationships with their clubs if possible, it is important to remember that the trust is a separate entity to the club and should be run by the supporters and not the club. This prevents the trust becoming simply a fundraising mechanism for the club and allows it to maintain it's own voice and views.

Cheers

I agree that if the idea is popular and the trust is formed then we should meet somewhere other than the club. However, I think at the moment Odsal would be a good place for an initial meeting as we know that everyone knows where it is, even those who don't live in Bradford. I'll let everyone know when I hear back from Stuart anyway, it may be that it's not an option!

If you can't get a venue near to Odsal my photography studio is half a mile down Halifax Road, we might be on emergency chairs and only a kettle for drinks but if your stuck your welcome here.

Hi all,

Stuart Duffy is happy for us to use the Media Room (opposite the ticket office) for a meeting on the 13th, but asks that the meeting is finished for 9pm. Is everyone ok with this venue? If so, I suggest we aim to start at 7pm?

Sounds good to me.

Hello,

That date/time/venue is fine for me. I will speak to Roy from WWST and confirm his attendance also.

I will endeavour to bring everything with me that I think will be useful for you but if anyone has any specific questions they would like answering please feel free to contact me and I will make sure I bring that information also.

Cheers

Laura

I'm a maybe. Depending on work commitments, should have a better idea by end of the week.

Should be there - barring the all-too-frequent work panics...
