Before the meeting started the Conference held a minute's silence in memory of our good friend and Trust Founder Tony Goodall, and also in memory of Jim Riordan whom also did a lot of work in The Trust's infancy. Steve Tovey opened the meeting by firstly cracking open the champers and some dodgy soft drinks! After the momentous occasion settled, Steve introduced the Conference to our new C.E.O Mark Catlin. Mark spoke to remind us all that the hard work has only just begun. Ashley Brown introduced Micah Hall, who'll be working alongside Mark under the title Engagement Manager. Micah has been layng the "groundwork" for the last 3 months. Micah mentioned that there is very little infrastructure in place How the print at home tickets had cost the club £40k because the ticket provider was having their cake and eating it! so he'll be looking into future ticket provider. Then Micah gave some insight into Season Ticket prices (fantastic deals for kids) Shareholders to pay less for their Season tickets than last year,a direct debit scheme to be set up,a season ticket available for the matchday magazine. an "away" season ticket, loyalty point type scheme for those travelling regularly to away games, lifetime season ticket holders to be honoured, although a possibility could exist for "lifers" to cash it in for shares! matchday prices, how the ticketing facility can be taken to new levels, marketing ideas amongst a stack of other things. Also, PFC will have the cheapest replica shirts in Professional Football! the kit deal is more or less done with 3 new kits in the offing, to be ready to go on sale in June! A digital magazine to be sent out to those on database monthly too, to keep every fan upto date with everything happening at PO4 8RA. Micah continued. ideally would like to get into schools to show videos of what Portsmouth FC do. an idea would also be for shirt swapping., handing in their Premier League shirts for Pompey ones. Another idea would be to go around schools with Paul Foley and Cass Pennant! Micah and Ashley to look into a cash turnstile during the Summer. also noted was that Mark Catlin and Micah will be earning less than a 1/5th of the last "management team!" Mick Williams then mentioned that there'll be a "jobs for the boys" backlash. it isn't. it's about utilising peoples skills. The agenda then ran as follows: Tom Dearie, Community Ideas. The Original document to be updated. The pay-for-a-pal scheme to face an overhaul after a number who'd applied for them for the Hermann game failed to pick their tickets up! Clare Martin had the idea of then using the scheme for Theme days ( 4 - 6 matches) per Season. Local Businesses are also preparing to support the scheme. The News are going to buy 2 season tickets which they will then advertise. The News will also promote/advertise all the local businesses involved. The 12th man mascot would be set to re-start. and "Fans Day" will be set for, hopefully, the first home game of next season! S.O.S are set to hold a "Victory Parade" from The Guildhall to Fans Day. Ken Malley. Spoke about the success of the six-a-side tournament. Pitch Invasion closed the competition on 16 teams which raised £800, plus another £52 was also collected on the evening of event. Pitch Invasion are keen to hold the event again, and hopefully it'll become an annual event. On Monday 24th June a ten pin bowling contest will take place at Bowlplex, Gunwharf. This will hopefully raise around the same amount. looking to charge £20 per participant, with 3 games guaranteed. Hopefully this event to become annual as well. The money for the first year to be converted into shares, the following years the money raised to go into Academy and Study Centre. Tom Dearie then mentioned that the taxman (Boo) hit Clare Martin with a V.A.T bill for £1900 for "Flag day" the season before! so, therefore, the first £1900 raised on Fans day is to go back to Clare's department. Sue Maskell, re Brentford. Sue has obtained videos and photos. Anecdotal evidence discussed between PFC and The Police. Brentford have a case to answer for the way they handled the match. Sue also said that Hampshire Police had been very helpful. Brentford had hired stewards in because their stewards were at Wembley! Ken Malley said pass the lot to the Supporters Federation who will then take it up with The Police and Clubs. Vern Rickman, Training Day. A good day, a very good day according to our Vern. Guy Whittingham and Johnny Ertl were fantastic. Guy and Johnny Moore to be especially thanked for organising a great day. Johnny Ertl believes all the players should live within the City, to live and breathe the place in. A fab day all round (me speaking and thinking aloud.gutted i missed it, need another job!!!) Johny Moore then spoke about the Hermann game/night. A super night, we don't have to accept the "can't do culture" a special thanks to Steve Tovey and Tom Dearie. it's the first ethos of how a community club should/will work. the money from the night's is safe with Tanya Robbins and Trevor Birch. The match cleared £40k. (all to receive a copy of accounts) Hermann's Q and A night. another brilliant night, with specail thanks to Jake Payne, Pam Wilkins, Scott McLachlan, Tom Dearie, and the Stewards (on both evenings). a Huge to thanks to the Stewards for mucking in and selling Matchday Programmes too. and thanks to the Brazillian Ladies. The Monday night raised over £500. Mick Williams. The Club's new Bank Manager was at the game on Tuesday evening (her first ever match) and thoroughly enjoyed it Steve Tovey. to set in stone bi monthly conference meetings for season when the fixtures come out. How we're to make the Conference more successful. Steve to also send a plan to us of how Club is structured. There will be transparency, and we're all to be involved. There will be sub committees meeting regularly and talk to Management. 3 to 4 people to meet management to discuss ideas, matters etc and then report back to rest of Conference. The possibilities are for Conference Members to join sub groups and to form ideals etc, Hospitality groups, Pompey Style! There will also be invites for other people to join the Conference, such as those not connected to any particular group, and get involved in sub committees. a web conferencing could be set up for every Pompey group worldwide to get involved in. and meetings at away games for Members in other areas around the Country to get involved in. Next Season will be a very challenging time on and off the pitch. there is a vision to have a new Club website, with all groups to have a webpage, including one for the Fans Conference. There could be a section in the matchday programme too! Tom Dearie has offered (now on Facebook too) the 12th man website. The Press Conference is now on Wednesday 24th April 10.30 am Ashley Brown, then announced the set up of The Club It will be: Presidents (individual investors) Shareholders' on day one £1.85m in PST shares, meaning PST currently own 55-60% of the Club. Tom Dearie then mentioned that 65% of shares now being taken up by new investors ( since ths Court Case finished) The meeting wrapped up at 12:05

Anybody here asked for the pm from POL board yet ? As you may be aware, we are considering sending you a Private Message (aka "conversation" with this board software) regarding a certain issue that has arisen regarding a very prominent and well respected board member in relation to certain blogs, but as there are so many of you who only browse rather than join in discussions, it will be easier for us if you can please express your interest in receiving a message by acknowledging below. Please don't ask any questions etc as you won't get a reply, all we need for this thread is your name if you want to be added to the list. Please don't PM me or any other of the admin a request as it will get lost in the melee - put your name down in a post below and we'll take it from there. Please note that we won't acknowledge that you have said yes as it will mean we do that for everyone who asks, but rest assured your name will be noted. This way, it will be easier for us to gauge how many we are sending - we don't after all want to send out 7k or whatever the total is if its not necessary. If we go ahead and send them out, it will happen between now and Sunday evening, so if by Monday you haven't received one then we decided not to send it and we will announce that on this thread.

Thanks for this I can now get saints player to work on my Nexus 4 , happy days !!

From Old Spice on POL New PompeyAge said: ↑ Sorry Mick, I'm a bit confused now. How is it that after all this time the PFA have still not ratified the Trust bid? I thought everything was in place for the Trust to take control 'tomorrow' once the valuation was sorted in court. If the PFA are still dragging their heels after all this time and surely knowing the urgency of the situation, how much longer might they drag their heels? I believe the PFA are supportive, but there are an awful lot of players who each have to agree their own compromise deals. Most of them expected their compromise payments to start last year and they haven't yet started so we are having to talk about such things as payment of arrears, when the four years payment period starts, assignment of parachute payments etc. I can't be more specific or say anything about individual players, but it has obviously become more difficult as time has passed. The bottom line is that if the PFA don't feel able to agree our proposal, the football league won't agree, we will be liquidated and the players will get naff all. I don't believe for one second that we all can't reach agreement, but this situation is typical of what we have had to deal with. I originally commented on this thread to try to explain how complicated this has been since day one and I've probably now said more than I should Another obstacle presents itself !!

More from POL From the Trust site The Pompey Supporters' Trust deal to buy Portsmouth Football Club remains firmly on track. It is now three weeks since the Trust was given 'preferred bidder' status by administrator PKF, but although little has emerged about the process since, PST spokesperson Colin Farmery has assured fans things are progressing smoothly. 'It has been a very busy time for us all as there has been a huge amount of work going on behind the scenes towards concluding the deal,' he said. 'The delicate nature of the negotiations should not be underestimated, which has required detailed scrutiny from our legal and accountancy teams. 'We will be asking fans to commit their money to the biggest share offer ever of its type and as a result we recognise we need to ensure the deal is as water-tight as possible, not only for investors but also for the long-term future of the club 'We are now in the final stages of negotiating a deal which has never been done before, which obviously takes time as it is a "first". 'We'd like to give our thanks to everyone for their support and patience. It has been a tough few weeks for the football club on the pitch, so we are hoping for some very good news off the pitch shortly.’ Farmery explained some of the work which had been taking place, including the finalising of both the shareholders' agreement and the share prospectus. 'These two documents are vitally important, as they lay out the terms of our offer and the relationships between all the stakeholders in them. We have been working closely with Supporters' Direct on drafting them. 'As negotiations have progressed the contents have inevitably changed, but we feel we are now very close to having a final draft ready for distribution. 'We look forward to being able to put forward our proposals in the very near future and we are all frustrated by the fact we haven't been able to say much publicly lately. 'As a Trust we are very conscious of the fact we need to be as transparent as possible, especially after all that has gone on at our club in recent years,' he added. The Trust aims to create the biggest community club in Britain, backed by around 2000 fans who have pledged almost £2m, partnering with a number of individual investors.

From POL The meeting took the form of an update from the Pompey Supporters Trust, with no fixed agenda set for the meeting. The below cover the points raised. •It is acknowledged that, for obvious reasons, the Trust only able to make limited information publically available due to the ongoing discussions as regards club ownership. •The Trust's aim for the future is to create transparancy at the club but cannot, unfortunately, be truly transparent at the moment during this acquisition phase •Ashley then gave an account of events over the last few weeks •Four weeks ago, the Trust were confident of being named the preferred bidder for the club •Unfortunately, as has been mentioned in various public media, risk managers at PKF did an about turn and recommended Portpin to the Football League. •Following this, there was a concerted effort to make the football league aware of all facts before a judgement was made, and the Football League read and took notes of the facts and articles put forward by the likes of Mike Hall and Sue Maskell. •Following this, the Football League put questions to Portpin, some of which they were either unable to answer or did not answer in full. •The Football League then went back to PKF and said that any deal with Portpin would take time, and the circumstances around discussion with Portpin made things very difficult. PKF then went back to the Trust with a renewed interest in talking to them as regards a deal. •One sticking point, as is publically known, is the situation around the charge on the ground. PKF wanted to do a deal with the Trust before any court case regarding the ground happened. The Trust refused this due to not wanting to risk paying any amount for the ground they were not happy with, they would prefer all amounts to be known pre-deal. •The Presidents are underwriting the majority of legal fees, although the Trust are also underwriting a proportion. •The Trust are meeting PKF once again early next week, w/b 5 November. A deal will not be done unless the Trust are confident that the Club would survive financially both in the short and long term, and that all demands/requests made by the Trust, as a result, are met. •Taking on the club will require a lot of hard work, and a lot of work as regards discussions and getting a deal in place will take place over the next week. •The share prospectus will, hopefully, be available next week. Full agreement on the figures is needed before circulation. •The timeline for taking over the club depends on any court case brought by Portpin as regards their charge on the ground. It is looking likely that any case would happen in December, although a judgement would be made there and then. The case would be in two parts. 1) PKF go to the court and serve notice that they wish to sell Fratton Park for a set amount, which Portpin could challenge, 2) The court is reconvened later so the judge on the valuation of the ground. The latter part would happen in December time at current timeframes. •The Trust have instructed their QC, and are in possession of independent valuations of Fratton Park. The Trust lawyers believe there is a very good chance of obtaining the valuation which the Trust want. •As regards player settlements, a couple have still to be fully agreed, but not enough discrepancy to affect any bid. Money for players would be balanced by remaining parachute payments. •No loans are involved as regards the money put in by the Presidents, it is all their own money. •All but one of the Presidents are Pompey fans, with the other being a keen football fan. As well as those publicised, other fans have put in just as much money. •The Trust have had an informal chat with Michael Appleton, and explained what the Trust are trying to do. •Enquiries as regards how to pledge money are still coming in. •It is acknowledged that, at Day One, the Trust would not own Fratton Park if they take over, with Stuart Robinson taking over Fratton Park initially. However, the Trust will have a period of exclusivity to buy the ground. To be clear for those with any concerns, any planning application to build on the land around the ground would have to be approved by Portsmouth City Council, with any build having to be beneficial to the football club. To be aware, this is not a concern from the Trust, this was in answer to a question put to them at this meeting. •Protection will be in place as regards selling of club shares, so an 'aggressive takeover' would not be possible. •The Trust would always hope to have at least 51% of the voting share of the Board, although 25% would be the minimum required to veto some decisions (some decisions would require a 75% majority, some a 90% majority).
