| 1. | Discipline | |
|
i) AM was concerned that we have already picked up 3 yellow cards this season. Messrs Evans, Rum and Gurney the offenders. Should the club pick up further bookings or sendings off then we run the risk of points deduction. It is has no bearing which side picks up the cautions, the league DO DEDUCT points from BOTH sides. He has asked the captains to stress the importance of the situation to their respective sides and especially to the individuals. ii) The newsletter has now been sent to 200 addresses and the final 30 copies will be distributed at training next week. |

| 2. | Finances and Outstanding Monies | |
|
Balance - £2,500. Bills - RG to settle bill for the cost of the newsletter ( £210). Outstanding monies - There are still 5 outstanding offenders that owe the club money. Evans (£90), Hannam (£100), Rum (£20), Ed Davis (£20), Lees (£40). AM to chase Evans and Lees, AP to chase Rum, BC to chase Davis and Hannam. |

| 3. | Captain's Report, Recruitment and Club Management | |
|
Although there had only been a few matches, the day to day running of the club was discussed and everything seems under control. The number of club players was discussed as well as the goal keeper situation. The main problem is lack of depth in the 1's. A list of players currently available and who have trained at Battersea since September was distributed. The number has now reached 45. |
