racers and royals 8,712 Posted August 27, 2019 Could be a problem brewing in Eskilstuna Smederna- maybe Lindgren blaming the "board" for his leaving the club is all to do with this. Maybe Ghostie knows more ? Google translation Unfortunately, we have a group of members who do not want to follow the democratic rules of the game that exist in our association. You probably know that there is a group within the association that calls itself "Save the Blacksmiths". A group that also includes non-members. The Board of Directors has previously received an e-mail requesting an extra annual meeting to be able to elect a new Board. The sender claims to have a list of names with enough members to require an extra annual meeting. No list has ever been presented with reference to GDPR and fear of reprisals. It is a perfectly reasonable requirement that the board want to see a list of name signatures. Partly to tune in to the membership matrix, and partly to see if the people really support the requirement for an annual meeting. Now the group wants to put democracy out of play by sending out an invitation to an extra annual meeting. Calling for an extra annual meeting on false grounds can have disastrous consequences for the association. If an annual meeting is held and a board is elected, it means that the association then has two boards. Something that is not allowed for a legal person. In the worst case, then authorities, RF, the bank and others will not regard us as a legal person at all. According to our statutes, “the board is required to convene an extra annual meeting when an auditor or at least a tenth of the association's voting members request it. Such a petition must be written down and contain the reasons for the request. ”As stated above, it is a very reasonable requirement of the board to require a list to ensure that at least one tenth is really behind. Neither reason has ever been presented. The group instead refers to "the unprofessional conduct of the Board". If the group follows the rules that exist and submits a list of names, with signatures and the reasons for the request, the board will of course announce an extra annual meeting. On the other hand, the board will never let go of the confidence that the annual meeting gave us if it turns out that the group consists of only a few rightholders who are only looking to destroy and do not want to follow a non-profit association's rules of the game. The call for an extra annual meeting for the Smederna Speedway Association, which has now been announced, has no support in our statutes and is thus invalid. We cannot prevent anyone from having a meeting but it will never be accepted as an Annual Meeting and the current Board will NOT take note of what is being discussed at this meeting.

Dave Goddard 355 Posted August 27, 2019 Hello from the studio - I can confirm that this Thursday's match between Vastervik and Indianerna will unfortunately go out delayed at 10.15pm due to clashing live Ice Hockey.

racers and royals 8,712 Posted August 27, 2019 Bet 365 think Smederna by 4 and Kumla by 10 in tonight`s 1st legs. Lejonen seem to have a really strong 1 to 7 tonight- Lahti at reserve could cause some damage. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ghostwalker 1,858 Posted August 27, 2019 I can also guarantee that we won't have a rain off tonight. Still really warm, around 20-25 C maybe. Track has been watered plenty but dries up fairly quickly. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
