> specifically say that the club is committed to obtaining 6 home games in Melbourne during the home and away season (note, I don't expect them to guarantee getting this, but would like it mentioned that it will be pushed for on behalf of the club's members, each and every year - I don't care if it goes without saying - say it again);
This is the big one for me - a commitment to demanding 6 games annually in Melbourne. While we're on that, how about committing to consulting with members prior to selling home games?
> our playing strip will contain maroon (or alternatively "fitzroy red"), blue and gold (save for designated clash games);
Wouldn't hurt.
> we will give all members due notice before any change to the playing strip or decision that impacts upon any other of the club's official documents (including the member's charter and the merger agreement).
I think "any change to the playing strip" is too restrictive. New sponsor logo? Hrmm, we have to run that by the members first. "Significant change" may be too broad - can you think of a middle-ground?
I've considered how best to give the charter some oomph and protection. The best I've come up with is a constitutional amendment outlining the club's commitment to it and the process for altering it.
Agreed. Also (ahem) since it was scrapped during the recent legal dealings volunteer a phase such as "the Fitzroy lion shall remain the logo of the club in perpetuity"?
That's a can of worms I don't want to open.
