ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING (A.G.M.) FOR SEASON 2008-2009

The A.G.M. for Season 2008-2009 was held in 'The Snooker Room' on Saturday 25th July.
As usual, most players had 'better things to do' and there were only 10 club members there including Laurence & Trevor Hughes. The others were Stuart Dorward, Alan Barnard, Martin Loveday, Tim Beeden, Jim Arrowsmith, Danny Green, Scott Jenkins & Daniel Daley. Well done to all of those for making an effort.
Unfortunately, Alan Barnard was the only award winner in attendance, so the others will just have to be given theirs on the touchline after matches.

Jamie Martin's goal 8 seconds after the Second Half kick-off in our 4-3 defeat to Enfield Royals was our Goal Of The Season (in my opinion), although nobody else agreed ! The nearest vote to my 1,2,3 was from Tim Beeden, who won himself a tenner.
Tony King's free-kick Away to White Hart was my 2nd choice and Terry Brown's free-kick in the same match was my 3rd choice. For some reason though, everybody thought Tony's free-kick was crap and Terry's was much better !
The Goal Of The Season page will be updated shortly so that those who were not in attendance at the A.G.M. can see for themselves !
Regarding the Management Committee for Season 2009-2010, it was agreed that Gary Cokell should be approached to see if his work situation has changed enough for him to be Assistant Manager (and also to sign up as a player again so that he can play in emergencies (e.g. when numerous players drop out at the last minute). Concern was expressed about him disagreeing with Trevor's tactics...which he has done in the past, but Gary has assured us that he will be more of a motivator and I am glad to say that he has accepted the role. It has been obvious for some time that we need somebody assisting Trevor on the touchline who is going to shout and encourage players. I can therefore continue to video the matches without having to worry about being an Assistant Manager myself !
In the absence of last season's Players' Representative Terry Moore at the meeting, Martin Loveday was unanimously voted in as Players Rep for Season 2009-2010 with the 'mandate' to organise fund-raising and social events for the club. This is often an impossible job, so good luck to him !

The full list of Award Winners for Season 2008-2009 were as follows:
PLAYERS' PLAYER OF THE YEAR.............Danny Hagan (Won by 7 points over second-placed Terry Moore, with Alan Barnard in 3rd place).
MANAGER'S PLAYER OF THE YEAR...........
