If there is a financial involvement this can be sorted at the time or after the event.

My initial thought was shareholders can't just instantly sack directors in this manner without convening a proper meeting notifying ALL shareholders.

But if the Board of Directors sacked these 2 directors, that must mean they sacked themselves, as there are only 3 directors. And if it's down to a shareholders' vote, then ……………………….. "Removal by the shareholders The shareholders must give 28 days’ notice of the meeting, and the director should be given the chance to put forward his or her case in writing, as well as attending the meeting."

Who is the controlling shareholder? If there is one then they make the call. As I understand it, there is a controlling shareholder. Which articles of association are you reading? Perhaps it was under the oft used phrase of 'mutual agreement'

Was such a shame to not have anything to go back to official. Kids would have loved to meet the players, us too. Quite a few getting off coaches at the Shay presumed there would be something on and when they wasn't they just headed into town or home instead. Such a waste of opportunity, players did their part on the day as did the fans, and to be let down by some individuals if it's the case is poor. Especially considering the rarity of the occasion.

FD are you thinking about an Annual General Meeting which is the shareholder meeting and allows questions to the board. This has to give 21/28 days notice of questions and agenda items. As demonstrated board meetings can be held in a car park if needed, and as long as there is a quorum of attendees it can be a 1 item agenda i.e. terminating directors. Board meetings are an agreed method of running a business and are normally diarised throughout a year, but sometimes there is a need to hold a special one to discuss a specific item. pm me if you need to discuss or know any more.
