Denaby Chairman and Financial Secretary Resign.

The annual meeting of Denaby United F.C., held at the Denaby Welfare Hall, yesterday morning, was notable for the resignations of the Chairman, Mr. T. E. Hardy, and the financial secretary, Mr, W. Astbury, who thus followed into retirement the late general secretary, Mr. J. Hancock, who resigned about two months ago.

Mr. Hardy presided and referred to the financial position of the club. Income had amounted £1,844 and March 23rd there was a balance in hand of £43.

Midland League “gates” at Denabv had averaged only £20 and those of second team matches only £2 13s.

Mr. T. Swinbourne (secretary-manager) said that the club’s playing record would have been better but for accidents to players and other adverse circumstances.

Officers were elected as follows: Chairman, Mr. Ben. Kelly; secretary-manager, Mr. T. Swinbourne; financial secretary. Mr. R. Adams.
