League A/M. The Chairman reported an interview which he &
the Secretary had had with the President of the
League, that he had analysed figures
submitted by Mr. McKenna shewing the receipts
of the clubs of the Lancashire & Midland
sections last season & that he was satisfied
that unless a system of gate sharing was
instituted - as a war scheme - there would
he small probability of League football next
Season. That as such system would entail
some financial sacrifice by ourselves and
five or six other Lancashire section members
a conference of such clubs would be advisable
in the near future in order to have a definite
proposal to place before the members at the
Annual Meeting on July 16.
The Chairman was instructed to represent
the Club in the matter.
