I'll try and get some key updates from the key points of the OxVox meeting, as they happen.
1910 - Slight delay to the start
1912 - Meeting started. Colin starting.
1915 - Updates: 1020 members. Life membership up 27%
1916 - Bank balance £12,138 slightly up even after the sensory room investment.
1920 - Blue plaque at Britannia Inn agreed, only produce 7 per year and this year is full. £800 paid by OxVox.
1921 - East Stand murual images drawn up and quotes received, but costs are more than expected
Safety Advisory Group has an OxVox committee member on board.
OxRails could be extended in East Stand.
Asset of Community Value renewed for three more years.
1926 - @Sarge asks NM about the HMRC issue, but no information from the club. But it is an error and should not have happened.
1928 - @Paul B asks if we have money to pay it. It is being dealt with this week.
1929 - @Sarge asks about lack of shareholders AGM this year. NM and Z will go back and conference call Tiger about it.
1931 - SB asks about update with arbitration. Z met with FK, touched on a number of issues but can build on this. Lots to resolve. FK was willing to address a number of them. Singh's beer is one they are working on.
1942 - @Sarge Will communications from the club improve? And not no response? Bring back Ask Ashton type show.
1945 - ET on the board,what will his involvement be? No real answer. It then gets on to environmentally friendly bags in the club shop....
1949 - Answer to a question about shareholders heavily avoided.
1952 - ZN seems very blunt with his answers. Maybe it's just my perception?
1955 - Forth stand still being looked into. But not for short term, until Championship or attendances improve.
2005 - @Sarge will concessions be reduced to 60 like other clubs? No answer.
OxVox stall at The Blackbird not really agreed by OxVox.
2013 - any plans for squad strengthening in Jan? Club will always look to improve.
2020 - Club shop in covered market had posters from games 3-4 weeks ago. That will be addressed.
2024 - Club should inform fans if the fence behind the North Stand is up.
2026 - Any way of selling merchandise in the concourses? Permission would be needed.
2027 - Restaurant not opening on Boxing Day is an economic issue.
2029 - Sports Science team working well. Injuries are impact, just unlucky.
2032 - Club will continue to support the Checkatrade Trophy. Current format may be up for change at the end of the season.
2036 - Some positive comments about the Youth setup. Dan Harris updates fantastic, maybe a board room type thing.
2041 - Fans Forum in February.
2045 - Pitch access is better than the club gets! Cannot answer too much due on going legal issues, basically the pitch we got was not what we thought and the club needs to look at. Summer renovations were not done as agreed!
2047 - Priory - OxVox asked Ian Hudspith to attend meeting tonight but could not make it. No new developments though. OxVox looked inside it and it has seriously detiorated.
2051 - Meeting over.
Apologies for any grammatical errors and I am sure someone from @OxVox will clear anything up.
