THE CELTIC TRUST managed to pull the necessary signatures on very short notice in order to get their two resolutions onto the Celtic AGM agenda.
The group were informed on Friday the AGM would be taking place a month earlier than last year, they were then told any resolutions and the necessary paperwork for them had to be submitted by the end of business on Tuesday.
It left the Celtic Trust up against it with the very real possibility of missing the deadline without the necessary signatures.
We’re delighted to report they pulled it off! The group’s hard work behind the scenes paid off. It was no doubt a stressful Tuesday for those involved who also had the small matter of attending a very strange kick off time at Celtic Park.
Well done to the shareholders who got involved.
šš½ Against the odds, we have reached enough signed forms for both resolutions to make it to the Celtic PLC AGM this year.
Thanks everyone for all your help sharing and signing – now, we need to get the vote out for a strong fan voice! āš½
