For information:-

The Supporters Co-op have a similar number of members to Hinckley AFC, although following Mark's recent appeal, more members have joined at Monday's meeting, so that will have increased numbers, how significant that will be in the scheme of things, we will have to 'wait & see'?

Hinckley AFC are set up as a Registered Society (a Mutual Benefit Society) - Option 5 on the FA's Club Structure guidance document.

Scarborough Athletic operate as a Registered Society.

Dan confirmed on here recently that the CIC is being handed over to the Supporters Co-op.

Setting up as a CIC is Option 4 on the FA's Club Structure guidance document.

The FA have also produced a guidance document on how to set up a new club, including references to grants that can be applied for in the process.

So, IMO, Mark is entitled to say that the Steering Group are looking at the options.

It's early days yet, so let's be patient & see what they recommend?

Edit:

The last time I had a look at Hinckley AFC's website there was a mission statement explaining what the club is about.

Also, it's worth a look at Hinckley AFC's latest published detailed accounts, they are very informative.
