Election of Directors
The constitution of Hyde United Community Association Football Club Limited states that
directors shall serve for three years, and that one third of the directors commencing with the
longest serving shall retire at each Annual General Meeting.
Following the resignation of Tony Spencer during the year, there are currently 11 directors on
the Board, the maximum allowed by the Rules being 12. Three directors are therefore
required to retire this year and offer themselves for re-election if they so wish.
The directors retiring at this year’s AGM are:
Andrew Deacon – Director – Hyde United Tigers Club liaison
Angela Harley – Director – Hyde United Juniors liaison
Daniel Seddon – Marketing Director
The retiring directors have indicated their willingness to stand for re-election.
With the exception of the roles of Chairman and Treasurer, which are elected by the Board
of Directors following the AGM, the club’s policy is that directors should be elected to fulfil
specific roles within the club. The roles currently to be filled are therefore those held by the
retiring directors.
There is also a vacancy on the board for an IT Director, the duties of whom were previously
carried out by Tony Spencer. The position involves maintaining the club’s IT infrastructure,
website, and other technical aspects.
The Board has received a nomination for this position for Gareth Taylor.
Should anyone else wish to stand for election as a director, your nomination, proposed and
seconded by CBS members, should be forwarded to office@hydeunited.co.uk, not later
than 5.00 p.m. on 22nd April 2026, and include the following:
- The position you wish to stand for
- Why you think you are best suited for the position
- Any skills and qualifications you have that would make you a good fit for the position
Successful appointees will be required to comply with the Football Association’s Fit and
Proper Persons regulations, which can be downloaded here.
In the event that further nominations are received, a ballot will be required.
As Hyde United Community Association Football Club Limited (the CBS) holds 100% of the
voting A shares in Hyde United Association Football Club Limited (the football club),
directorships in the CBS will be mirrored in the football club.
