Present All the Directors.
Minutes The minutes of the last meeting were read and
confirmed.
Reports The Chairman reported the conference between
the deputations from our Club and Liverpool
and that (1) it was agreed between the Clubs
that an understanding should be arrived at as
to the letting of the respective football grounds
for various matches with the object of considerably
curtailing the privilege and (2) it was felt that
the use of the ground should be restricted to
semi final and final ties of recognised local
cup and charity competitions and to school boy
matches.
On the question of advertising matches the mode of
doing so by (a) posters (b) a front page daily
advertisement and (c) the transference of the present
advertisement from the foot to the centre of the
football notes columns and as the Liverpool
Football Club evinced a preference for the last
mode it was resolved that if same could be
obtained at the same rate now paid that form of
advertisement be adopted. After discussion it
was accordingly resolved that a deputation from
our Club meet that from Liverpool on Monday
next at the Bradford Hotel at 4:30 pm. with
full powers to enter into an agreement on the lines
indicated above.
