1. Minutes of AGM - 21 July 20142. Accounts for the year ended 31 January 2014 - not available as Audit still pending.
3. Election of Board members - report of Secretary attached
4. Consideration of resolution, discussion of which was deferred at the meeting on 21 July 2014

Resolution proposed by Bruce Walker
The Trust can no longer sit on the fence while our Club is being destroyed. The Trust must represent and give voice to its members, and in particular must:
1. Call for a complete supporters' boycott of City matches at Sixfields.
2. Increase pressure on the Football League to bring about a return of the Club to the Ricoh Arena from the start of the 2014/15 season , by using their powers to encourage the Club and its owners to enter into negotiations with Coventry City Council, ACL and other interested parties who could facilitate such a return , and to ensure that any proposed return is approved by the League as quickly as possible.
3. Take over the www.FixFootball.co.uk petition and use the Trust's fighting fund, other resources and links with Supporters Direct and other fan groups to promote it.
4. Start a campaign of contacting known or suspected SISU investors, drawing their attention to the current position.
Open Forum for Members.​

5. Open Forum for members

I reckon 100% of city fans are now boycotting Sixfields

No, next Monday's.

Maybe they know something we don't?

This was a resolution brought by a member at the last Trust open meeting and it was agreed at that time because events were unfolding to hold fire on it and look at it at the next appropriate time. As a resolution events have overtaken it but it is still live until it is voted on. Procedural but that is the drawback of a democratic organisation. Tonights meeting has Steve Waggott as guest speaker and hopefully we may learn a bit more about what is going on about todays state of affairs

I reckon everybody should vote for the Sixfields boycott, would you then have to send a newsletter encouraging it? ointlaugh:

What about the other proposed resolutions, Will they be heard too in the interests of a democratic organisation? -1. To fight the plan to make Highfield Road all seater, 2. Price of programmes too dear at 75p and 3. to give Dave Sexton a realitic playing budget.

Man, I've been standing on the hill blowing a whistle for the last three home fixtures. I wondered why it was so quiet - why didn't anyone tell me.

I'm getting confused.
From what I have understood the £30M is not to buy the Ricoh it is to get hold of ACL etc

The Friday night phone in (just listened) keeps talking about selling it to the wasps.

Surely we know at least this detail ? Or is it just me ?

Yep agree, should have read ACL! This still creates a huge amount of uncertainty surely??
