Guest Olly Posted July 29, 2009 Report Share Posted July 29, 2009 6 Teams turned up for a vets AGM at St Agnes last Monday at 7.30pm Unfortunatly the shambles continues Doug Atkins did not show and with no officers the meeting had to be abandoned at 8.30pm I was told that several new teams wanted to join at the league in the new season Liskead arrived last monday to join, has did Newquay. We decided to hold another meeting on Monday August 11th again at St Agnes at 7.30 We are looking for at least one representative from each club that wish to join the Veterans league. I do not have lists or phone numbers of clubs to contact so hopefully anyone reading this who are interested can get in touch. My e mail address is alan@hlis.co.uk We do have someone willing to take on the secretary role, we do need sponsorship, we do need clubs.

Dave Deacon Posted August 1, 2009 Report Share Posted August 1, 2009 Let's be honest - at the end of the day the interest just isn't there! :blink: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Olly Posted August 2, 2009 Report Share Posted August 2, 2009 The interest is there alright, it just needs bringing together. The mis management as gone on to long, everybody is fed up with it, but this is the chance to do something about it. Put nothing in, you'll get nothing out. If you want to play its there for you, come to the meeting on Monday 10th Aug at St Agnes. The last two comments I take onboard lads, but ask this, are you willing to do anything for the future of Veterans Football?

Martin McHugh Posted August 2, 2009 Report Share Posted August 2, 2009 In reply to the question of helping, I have left a very good veterans team to become involved in the running of another, both of whicih were represented at the meeting. Being a player can be an easy ride for most but as most people know, managing and running a team is a big enough contribution to a league so I feel that I personaly am making a contribution. Maybe Dave has a point and there really isn`t enough interest but it would be a real shame if these problems cant be sorted out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gas on tour Posted August 2, 2009 Report Share Posted August 2, 2009 Hi All, Just to let you know that there will be a representative form St Dennis Vets at the meeting, have also been approached by someone who is interested in sponsoring the league.

Lafs Posted August 3, 2009 Report Share Posted August 3, 2009 I have to apologise for not being physically able to follow up contact I had with people months ago regarding the forming, administration etc of the Vets League. Been far too busy!!! But, the interest shown then was very reassuring so where is it now its needed? Nobody is more committed and passionate about the long term future of the Vets League than Alan Oliver and he is trying his damn best to ensure its existance continues, so I urge people to step forward before it is too late. Please contact either Al or myself on here by PM or Email. Cheers Phil Lafferty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lafs Posted August 22, 2009 Report Share Posted August 22, 2009 As I understand it, a brand new league comprising of approx 10 teams and a a new structure of "straight" and honest officers/administrators at the helm is in the process of being finalised. The delay of an announcement to confirm this, I believe, is due to Doug Atkins who has all the veterans league paperwork, having dissapeared off the face of planet earth. This confirms that there is actually a God!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whuru Posted August 30, 2009 Report Share Posted August 30, 2009 any updates as to whats happening and when the season will start, I still have some vets paperwork ie rules and constitution from old handbooks if this helps and don't forget to get a balance sheet !!!
