PLC AGM Date Set - Ipswich Town News
The Annual General Meeting of the Ipswich Town PLC will take place in the Sir Bobby Robson Suite on Thursday 5th December (doors open 6.30pm for 7.30pm start).
The PLC owns 12.5% of Town and consists of the club's shareholding prior to the takeover six years ago with Marcus Evans owning the other 87.5%. The meeting is open only to shareholders or their proxies.
Amongst the resolutions to be put to shareholders will be the appointment to the PLC board of the club’s joint-managing directors Ian Milne and Jonathan Symonds, former chief executive Simon Clegg and board member Martin Pitcher having resigned over the course of the last year.
Ex-club director Roger Finbow is the current PLC chairman, while Supporters Club chair Elizabeth Edwards and former club chairman John Kerr and one-time board members Philip Hope-Cobbold and Richard Moore are the other directors.
In a letter to shareholders, Finbow says that a summary of the club's accounts for the year to June 2013 should be ready in time for the meeting: "The summary Financial Highlights of Ipswich Town Football Club Co Limited are awaiting audit of the consolidated accounts from which they are derived but are expected to be available at the AGM and will also be published in early December on the shareholder section of the club’s website."
