Preston North End – Annual General Meeting


Friday, May 27 – 1910
Presiding over the annual meeting of the shareholders of the Preston North End Football Club last night, Alderman W.E. Ord, the chairman of the directors, said it was unfortunate that for various reasons, chiefly a sequence of wet Saturday’s there was a loss of £750 upon the year’s working. They had a lesson from what had happened at Woolwich, and if the club was to be kept going the directors must have the whole-hearted support of the football loving public. There were large possibilities in football, and if the directors could get together a strong winning side he had no doubt that the future would be bright. (Applause.) The balance sheet and annual report were adopted, and the retiring directors were re-elected.
