Questions for the Supporters' Trust

[DHST]

We have been asked to raise several questions to Meadow recently, so if anyone has any further questions for us to raise with Meadow, Football Club Committee etc please post.

 

[Dulwich Mishi]

Alternatively...if there are any questions to be asked from the football Committee just approach the Chair of the Football Committee liamdhfc either on here via private message, or approach at any home or away game...he doesn't miss any. All of the Committee are more than approachable to answer any questions.

How come the debit has been getting larger each year considering attendances have been getting larger over the same period?

What expense is causing that?

It would be better to have the discussion out in the open here though, rather than taking place privately.

Yes and no. Surely depends on what's being discussed, or asked? And some people might read this forum and not use it, or might want to ask someone something, but do so on a public forum?

We will post our comments to questions asked on here and then all can discuss

Think Mishi just means you can ask anyone at the club, be it committee or trust, questions on meadow and can ask to send questions too meadow.

Everyone's having the same conversation!

As said above Trust and Committee are as one in dealings with Meadow and so feel free to ask anything. We are all currently looking at the financial information recently provided by them so please bear with us if we take a little time to come back. There is a lot of information to read, review and analyse

Hadley always denied having a ' plan B ' , saying they wanted to concentrate on the fight for their vision of the site . Do Meadows have a 'plan B' ?

 

[liamdhfc]

Any Plan B is being planned within the club. There is no Plan B from Meadow that I know of. I would suggest Plan B involves moving ownership of the site to somebody else and if that happens let's hope they are supportive of Dulwich Hamlet FC being the head tenant at an affordable rent. What is clear is that the land won't have gone down in value so I don't think they'll make a loss if that happens.
However what happens in terms of any funding for the club is also unclear but would suggest refusal of planning permission would see us all needing to quickly step up to the plate to keep it running.

My own personal opinion, as a self-confessed 'Natural Born Pessimist', is that if the application is thrown out there are extremely worrying times ahead.. I hope we will have garnered enough points to stay up!
