Alan Wray - RFC anyone everyone campaign - Scottish Govt guidelines discriminate against those who don’t want to be vaccinated.

Stewart Robertson replies - club doesn’t set the rules. Club has. A duty to stand up for their wishes but also have a safety certificate we have to meet. Lots of discussion but we have to comply with regulations as they are. Can understand you point but one of many opinions.

Wray - any push back at all?

Robertson - we make representations all the time

Waste of a question - should have asked how much it costs the club.

George Hoggin - on behalf of club 1872 aldrin’s about loans secured to Edmonton house can board confirm terms of current loans.

John Bennet - bit of both. £3.5m issued as new shares. No new security against updated numbers. £13million in new loans - not secured. Lowest coupon club has paid. Now 6% close Bros was 9% and Dave King 8%

Kieran Maguire good source on this.

Other interest approaches are interesting - one recent offer was at 13%

Cost of funding driven down.

Others want a lot more security and higher coupon.

Must be the SLOs pal that.
 
I have no idea how Bisgrove expects to effectively double our commercial income in one year. Sounds like an extremely difficult target to meet, and I doubt he’ll be able to.
 
Charlie Murray, Linwood - three years ago made same statement - disabled facilities are a disgrace for club of our status. Sight lines are terrible due to camber on pitch. Open to the elements. So bad some leave early or don’t take up seats if heavy rain anticipated. We want to boast Simply The Best facilities for the s disabled.

Robertson - discussed at board meeting yesterday - not good enough and will discuss with new disability officer.

It isn't clear what makes up his current figure of £13m. Hope someone asks that question.
