Notes from Bolsover Old Boys (Affiliated Parent Club) Emergency meeting held at the Bolsover Town Social Club (Coalite) on Tuesday 13th May 2008.

Apologies & absent: None noted.

Meeting commenced at 20:15.

This emergency meeting has been called notionally under Club Rules 5a, 5b & 5d (there being no other specific rule allowing the calling of a special meeting other than an SGM) to discuss one item of urgent business.

JH briefed the meeting on the matter to hand, in that the current owner of several items of equipment currently located within the area of the Bolsover Town Social Club (Coalite club) had decided to dispose of them with immediate effect. The item of particular interest was the current changing rooms portakabin and the distinct possibility that its owner may sell it off to groups or individuals who may wish to remove it from the site for their own use. The immediate effect of this would be the key issue that the Bolsover Old Boys Reserves football team would have no onsite changing facilities and therefore the possibility that they would be precluded from playing league football at the current ground for the forthcoming season. A brief discussion took place on the various possibilities and opportunities surrounding the recent events and what recourse the club might want to pursue.

Following this debate, JH placed the following formal proposal to the meeting that as soon as is reasonably practicable, an offer of no more than 1000 be made by the Secretary of Bolsover Old Boys (Affiliated Parent Club) to the current owners for the double portakabin changing rooms currently located in the grounds of the Bolsover Town Social Club (Coalite).

Those in favour: 12

Those against: 0

Those abstaining: 0

There being no other business, the meeting closed at 20:40.

7. Election/Re-Election of Club officials.

JH noted that the Club did not have a formal President as part of the committee and proposed that SR be elected President. No other nominations were forthcoming from the floor.

Proposed: JH Seconded: Paul Raybould Agreed: Unanimous.

Therefore Steve Robinson was elected as Club President.

The point was raised from the floor that as PB had made clear his intentions to set up another team outside of the Bolsover Old Boys structure that his place on the current committee was untenable and not in the best interests of the club. It was therefore formally proposed that PB be removed from the current committee and replaced by Ant Stewart. The nomination was accepted.

Proposed: RC Seconded: Calum Gerrard Agreed: Unanimous.

JH then proposed that all current committee members with the exception of PB be re-elected as is. No other nominations were forthcoming from the floor.

Proposed: JH Seconded: RH Agreed: Unanimous.

8. AOB.

JH asked that club members complete and return club membership forms as soon as possible. He also asked that players return league signing on forms as soon as possible.

RC proposed a vote of thanks to outgoing reserve team manager, Mark Taylor, for his efforts this season and previous seasons and formally welcomed on board new manager Russ Fox.

Proposed: RC Seconded: AS Agreed: Unanimous.

JH asked members present to return votes for Players Player of the Season as soon as possible.

BOB Gala Day T-shirts.

The question had been raised at to whether it would be an idea to produce souvenir T-shirts for the Gala day on the 15th July by PR2. The meeting felt that although this was a welcome idea the risks in producing such items outweighed the likely benefits. JH stated that the BOB had enough to take care of with the general organisation of the day and he also felt that sales of the items would not warrant the likely effort needed to organise.

JFC Summer Trip.
