Sorry, can't make it as we are celebrating the "coming of age" of Johno Junior's daughter, Nicole.....hard to believe that she is 18 in a few days ! She's still "footy mad" and is a regular in the Everton Reserves Team. She may be going to The States next September on a "Soccer Scholarship".....a chip off the old block! It only seems like a couple of years ago that she was trotting out as the Boro mascot !

It will be most important if someone takes notes on what goes on at this meeting and publishes it on the site so that those of us who can't get there know just what happened and what help is needed. Is anybody down to do this?

Main Talking points
The Budget we have is not enough at the moment from what we are getting in. The Dawson deal was enough to pay the taxman - but thats all that can be said about it Murgy left after a extended holiday in Croatia in the summer, although why exactly is unknown. Bernard wants to keep the club at Current Level, but without help raising money we cant stay. Money from Football Courts and Functions keeping club as we are Lucky 7 sales are on decline due to Alex and Sandra unable to continue (Ivan and Josh going to try take their old route) A new Lottery being set by Bolton may start up soon, running similar to last one, but with Boro getting more from deal. Suggestion made by myself to try to take the club a more community based than previous and to have club more open than in past.
Website - Kevin will still try to update but does need someone to eventually take over
Gerry then talked about the team and how we will run the team. The club are using him as Caretaker but he has applied for full time job.He also wants 110% from players
Coach - is as of this moment full. there is a chance that we will travel with the players. if any seats are left then will be offered on 1st come 1st served system. (more announced Saturday)
at the end, I made suggestion about a Race Night then also with Gerry's advice running a Companies 6 a side tournament(s) on a monthly Basis.

Well done, TGOTT, I think the Race Night would be a great idea.....I would offer to MC the night if you're short. Also I need to get back into the Lucky 7 habit....how do I do that from afar? How much extra is needed to be raised in a year so that Club breaks even playing at the same level?
