for the Manchester Storm.

In addition to discussing recent events surrounding the future of the

Everyone interested in offering support to the Manchester Storm and the
sport of ice hockey is invited and welcome to attend and the club looks

this meeting, but it has been dependant upon the outcome of various
meetings the latest of which took place at 3pm today, Wednesday.

club respectfully suggest that children, whilst no doubt interested, do
not attend the meeting. There is no wish to exclude any fans, but the
club wishes to enable as many of the fan base as possible be able to
attend and partake. If you are able to attend, your presence at the
meeting is greatly appreciated

...if you follow the FoSSL path and put money into a joint venture with another party, make sure you have a better grip than we did on his throat, his wallet and/or his soft fleshy dangly bits.
