Executive director Ben Hatton, consultant Michael Bolingbroke and non-executive directors Ian Currie and Tim Fielding are all due to attend the meeting, which will be held at Rowley’s restaurant inside Bloomfield Road.

The forum will begin at 7pm on Wednesday.

The board hopes the event will help assist them with understanding the fans’ requirements as the club begins to plan for next season.
