Pheonix Club Constitution - Choices
Views: 1605
I believe there are two possible *choices, as follows:-
*In either case the new Pheonix Club would be created as a Society.
1. A Community Society...community led.
2. A Supporters Society...supporters led.
If the two new Investors are proposing to take a majority shareholding in the new Pheonix Club, the constitution would lend itself to a Community Society.
If the two new Investors are proposing to take a minority shareholding in the new Pheonix Club, the constitution would lend itself to a Supporters Society.
I think the two new Investors need to make their intentions clear before they hold the Fans Forum, to present their plans, because the new Pheonix Club will be a new legal entity & will require a Constitution.
Also, the current status of the CIC needs to be explained, together with how the existing Academy & Juniors/Womens/Girls Sections fit into the new plans.
Finally, where it is proposed all of these teams will be playing, after the liquidation of Boro Leisure Ltd.
Please note:
The FA will need to approve the name of the new Pheonix Club.
It may not be possible to continue to use the name Nuneaton Borough?
That said, Bury AFC (their Pheonix Club) have recently successfully been granted permission to return to using the original name Bury FC.
Just my thoughts!

Did you not read what the coop said about their meeting with the people? They want to run it as a private limited company.
Options 1 and option 2 you have posted do not have to be separate, they can come together under the banner of a CIC. This would be my preferred option and is achievable, it just needs to be made up or the right groups, organisations and individuals.
I can see us Boro fans ending up in the same position in a few years time, but this time without a ground.

For clarity Mark, the FA's guidance on Club Structure outlines the following 5 Options:-
1. Unincorporated Association.
2. Private Limited Company (limited by Guarantee).
3. Private Limited Company (limited by Shares).
4. Community Interest Company (CIC) (which can either be limited by Guarantee or limited by Shares).
5. Registered Society (which can either be a Co-operative or a Mutual Benefit Society).
Which is it to be?
Edit:
To reinforce my original statement, do the two new Investors want to be majority or minority shareholders in the new Pheonix Club, or do they want to own & run the business (as a Private Limited Company) (either limited by Guarantee or limited by Shares) to the exclusion of any other interested parties.
Again, which is it to be?

Now you are finally understanding why I said the announcement of a Phoenix club was premature. A Phoenix before the flames have even been lit.
In reality I think the winning bid will have the support of former sponsors; a proposed groundshare in the short term; and a link with the separate proposers for Avenue Road.
So I think one clear winner will emerge.

There is not a 'one size fits all' for Trusts.

For clarity:-
The FA's ground-grading requirements for Level 8/Step 4 are as follows:-
Total capacity 1300.
Covered accomodation 300, including 150 seats.
Floodlight lighting level (new installations) 200 lux.
There could be an area set-aside initially for a fan-zone to accomodate mobile food outlets on matchdays & also a beer tent (if required)...something similar to the fanzone at Franklins Gardens (Northampton Saints RFC)...it's a very good set-up.

Understandable.
IMO, an Investor model would be most suited to building a new Stadium in Phases to an eventual 5000 capacity, including 2000 seats, after 3 years of continuous membership of the EFL.
That would allow membership of EFL League One & League Two.
Membership of the Championship requires a minimum 5000 all-seater Stadium.
The FA permit Stadium construction on 3 sides, which is very helpful in planning new Stadium design.

Yes, the aim would be to start low and work upward - but surely even a dreamer like you can see that there is an upper limit to what is practical in the foreseeable future? EFL has always been beyond Boro in the past. With the way that football has developed, clubs much bigger than Boro has ever been can't maintain EFL level. So isn't it madness to even think that we need to be thinking about that at a time when we are not sure we will be fit for Pauls Land next season?

We have the land area at Gala Field, to expand the Stadium to match what we had at LW.
We just have to plan the Stadium layout to suit a 5000 capacity Stadium & make sure the pitch is located in the correct position.
The likelihood is that the long side, parallel to the Wem Brook will be unused (initially) & narrow, which would comply with a 3-sided Stadium design & allow for a potential 2000 (future) capacity Main Stand on the opposite side (similar to AFC Telford United's Main Stand).
The boundary fence would be set out & erected to suit a 5000 capacity Stadium.
It would be on a similar principle to that adopted by Nantwich Town but with a longer, narrower Main Stand, that would eventually run the length of the pitch.
THE KEY DRIVER IS CORRECTLY LOCATING THE PITCH AT THE START OF THE STADIUM DEVELOPMENT.
Edit:
Until we have built facilities, we will need a Fanzone within the Stadium boundary.

You build everything ONCE, so you need to agree the final design for the 5000 capacity Stadium from the outset & then you build it in phases to suit the FA's ground-grading requirements as you progress up through the Leagues.
You start with a modern 4-pylon LED floodlighting system, with directional lighting at 250 lux, to suit the National.
The FA have recently upgraded their floodlighting requirement for new installations in the lower leagues to 200 lux.
Edit:
You take EXTREME CARE in the design phasing to AVOID ABORTIVE WORK.
The 5000 capacity Stadium design NEEDS TO GAIN A FULL PLANNING PERMISSION FROM THE OUTSET.

The National, no higher.
Edit:
To be promoted to EFL League Two, the artificial pitch would need to be ripped up & replaced by a grass pitch...(Harrogate Town & Sutton United).
Once in the National, you have to demonstrate how the Stadium can be upgraded to 5000 capacity, including 1000 seats initially, for entry into EFL League Two.
After 3 continuous years in the EFL, the Stadium has to be further upgraded to 5000 capacity, including 2000 seats.
The Championship requires a minimum 5000 all-seater Stadium.

Based on their prior interest, and what they have said to the co-op, it feels like they have already an idea of how they want to run it, have rushed ahead and set things in motion unfortunately

I'd have zero interest in a new Boro without fan representation on the board Mark- as a minimum.

The approach the two new Investors take in preparing for the Fans Forum will give us a good idea as to what they are about?

Is there any point to a pheonix club ?
Probably be badly run and just go bust within 20 years
Sort of the history of Nuneaton now …. Not success on the pitch - practically never had any of that but just being the club that is always badly run and keeps going bust - sorry but bit of waste of time and money supporting them

The third collapse of Nuneaton Boro in the last few decades begs the question: Is a non league football club in Nuneaton actually viable?

It's not about being gud. it's about checking what you post before you start spouting garbage.
Some posters don't bother with that malarkey. They just cut and paste gibberish asap and whack it up online so that they can log their millionth comment of the day/week/month. All this to demonstrate how brilliant they are intellectually and how stupid the rest of us are.
Biggest (of several) bullets pumped hourly into the foot is that they cannot even spell what they are banging on about.
Does not inspire conficende.
