FOREVER Bury have raised concerns over “radical changes” being proposed by the club’s board which they claim will “marginalise” shareholders.

An email has been sent out by the supporters’ group imploring all members who can to attend the club’s annual general meeting on Wednesday morning, when the proposals will be considered.

The communiqué outlines the plans put forward by the board in the AGM agenda, simplifying them into three key points.

Forever Bury allege that the club’s owners wish to “cancel future AGMs, stop all future rotation of directors, and control all share transfers with the intention to water down or even buy out anyone wishing to transfer large blocks of shares.”

“The board are proposing radical changes to the club’s articles, which will marginalise not just Forever Bury but all shareholders and they hope to get this passed on the day,” read the email.

“If passed then the current board won’t be answerable for anything they do and likewise any future owners.

“We see this as a very dangerous route to take and are completely opposed.

“The board of Forever Bury would like to ask any of our members who are shareholders to try and get down to the AGM to have their voice heard and play a part in blocking this proposal.”

Bury’s directors, including chairman Stewart Day and chief executive Glenn Thomas, refused to comment on the Forever Bury email, saying they would be remaining silent on the issue until after Wednesday’s meeting.

It is understood that the meeting was only called following pressure exerted by Forever Bury chairman Dave Giffard, who threatened to call an extraordinary general meeting.

That followed 10 months of delay, with the original AGM put back from January.

A statement from the directors in the close season highlighted a “historical” problem over the issuing of shares as the reason for the delay, with assurances that the meeting would be held by the end of September.

The directors have since caused further consternation after arranging the AGM for 9am, rather than outside normal working hours, as is common practice, and failing to include an update on the club’s latest accounts in the agenda.
