Saints reject EGM date change

Saints reject EGM date change

22/09/2007 12:26 PM

The St Kilda Football Club has dismissed a move by St Kilda Footy First, the group seeking to take control of the club's board, to bring forward an Extraordinary General Meeting set down for mid-November.

In a prepared statement, the club described a notice calling for the EGM to be held in the last week of October rather than 12 November as 'mischievous'.

The revised notice "clearly limits the club’s ability to respond in reasonable time, given the statutory 21 day notice period to members and printing, mailing house and postage requirements" and is invalid, the statement said.

The club reaffirmed its view that the challenge to the current board should be resolved by the members at an EGM as soon as possible.

St Kilda Footy First including former players Nathan Burke and Andrew Thompson and headed by transport magnate Greg Westaway has pledged to boost spending on the club's marketing and football departments if it manages to succeed the current board under president Rod Butterss.
