Shareholder Association forces Emergency General Meeting with Everton FC Co Ltd, 26 June 2013

The Everton Shareholders' Association secured the mandate they needed frm their members to force a General Meeting under The Companies Regulations 2009 after failing to get the Board of Directors to voluntarily convene a meeting. Since the Board changed the Articles of Association to terminate the longstanding tradition of Annual General Meetings in 2008, the Club's minority shareholders have had no official forum in which to interface with the Board apart from the smaller, less formal settings of "Fan Forums" and individual meetings with the leaders of the Shareholders' Association.
