The Supporters Trust board will be hosting an Open Meeting at the Duke of Clarence public house in Canton, Cardiff, on Monday evening (01/02/10, start time: 7:30pm).

The main items on the agenda will, of course, be the current off-field situation at the football club and the Trust’s attempt to call a General Meeting of shareholders. During an open forum, members will be given an opportunity to express their opinions on the present state of affairs at Cardiff City and the Trust’s General Meeting campaign.

Non-members are also welcome to attend the meeting and forms will be available for those fans who wish to sign up with the Trust on the night.

Many thanks for your continued support. It is very much appreciated.

On Wednesday 27 January, Cardiff City Supporters’ Trust Secretary Geraint Jones received a letter from Cardiff City Football Club (Holdings) Ltd Secretary Alan Whiteley in reply to the Trust’s recent request for a General Meeting of the company.

Mr Whiteley confirmed that the company’s directors are intending to call a General Meeting at some point in the near future. However, no actual date was specified for this meeting.

Therefore, having carefully considered the contents of Mr Whiteley’s letter during an emergency meeting on Thursday evening, the Trust’s board have unanimously voted to press ahead with the plans to make a formal call for a General Meeting of the company’s shareholders at the earliest opportunity.

As a result of this decision, a letter will be going out to all Cardiff City Football Club (Holdings) Ltd shareholders this weekend, while the Trust’s board will continue to work towards gathering the levels of support necessary to call for such a meeting. Members will be kept informed of all developments in due course.
