I would have preferred to have waited until such time as the role was needed and then perhaps there could have been an election with hopefully a choice of candidates rather than a crowning. However the deed is done and I have accepted that.garindan wrote:I think it is always a good idea to have at least two other supporters, otherwise it is a case of "me and him" think this is a good idea so let's have a vote.

The secretary role will become more important as we grow even if there is not a great call for that third position right now. As far as I can see it certainly does no harm.

You've turned the meaning of that one again kevin - I was referring to the fact a decision to call a poll might not be to the liking of all and the outcome potentially the same. At the end of the day someone has to make decisions otherwise we don't have a practical working club and would be rudderless.kevinchess1 wrote:?garindan wrote:

And here's me thinking that we are a democracy with an equal vote
I'm just curious.garindan wrote:William Joseph wrote:I would have preferred to have waited until such time as the role was needed and then perhaps there could have been an election with hopefully a choice of candidates rather than a crowning.

I understand this. Perhaps in a year we might be in a better position to have some changes and some more volunteers

Does this mean I will lose the role as the voluntary imutual Cashback Investment Club Secretary?
I find it strange we consider selling anything without an alternative investment we feel will do us better just because they reach a certain % growth unless your view is once they reach this they are certain to fall and you want to sell and buy back.kevinchess1 wrote:We can't sell either without a vote
We could sell Sainsburys if it gets to 8% profit
Unless the Chairman calls for a vote not to of course
