The meeting discussed greater engagement with the fan base and the membership , and amongst other things it was agreed we would undertake a survey on issues to ascertain fans/ members views .
The Board were due to meet Board Members of the Club the following evening ( 14 January) and discussion followed on a lengthy list of questions to be submitted on behalf of the Board and Members.
Also received and discussed was a letter drafted by Chair Pete Towey addressed to potential investors, indicating a willingness to meet from ourselves. This letter would be handed to SCFC Board Members at the upcoming meeting.

The successful elections for the Board having been completed, the Board agreed to thank Neil de Milliere for the excellent work and long hours he put in on our behalf , as Independent Returning Officer.
Dave Marchbank.
Since the elections and the subsequent board meeting, Dave Marchbank has resigned from the board, owing to pressure of work.
Cabin and ST on Saturday
As usual the cabin will be open between 1.30 and 2.40 before the game with York City, and at least 2 Cooperative board members will be present, to answer and queries, take membership renewals / sign ups, or flog you a shirt in support of the Guardian Account ( still only £10).
And…after the game …Mike , the ST landlord, will be donating 10% of takings to the Guardian Account between 5 and 8.30, before the live music starts. There`s great beers and excellent hospitality to sample- give it a try !
