    File: BMD Dave Richardson.mp3 Duration: 0:42:56 Date: 08/08/2016 Typist: 704 START AUDIO Interviewer: Okay. Can we just start by you stating your name? David Richardson: My name's David Richardson. Interviewer: What's your involvement with the club? David Richardson: I started here as a fan at the football club, later moving on to being a photographer and then the videographer. Now I'm back doing photography again. Interviewer: Okay, so when did you first become involved with the club? David Richardson: I first became involved with the club, filming wise, back in 2001/2002 season. It might have been 2002/2003 season. Before that I was doing photographs. The photographs I started taking were from the side of the pitch. I was using a 0.3 megapixel camera. They were being used - I created my own website. I used to go home and away games, the fans and I had the pictures on the website with a little bit of talking about what we were doing, going round different fish shops, what the burgers were like at different places and the programmes. Then I got a 1.3 megapixel camera and it had a good optical zoom on it. Steve Watkins, who looked after the website with Spencer, said, "Can we use your photos for the website?" and I said, "Yes, no problem at all." I supplied them with my photos from where I was taking and it moved on to me actually getting pitch side access. I was actually sat by the side of the pitch taking the photos and they were going to the website.

  • Public Petition Pe1319
    Mr. Fergus Cochrane, PE1319/M Clerk to the Public Petition Committee, TG.01, The Scottish Parliament, Edinburgh. EH99 1SP Friday 17th September 2010 PUBLIC PETITION PE1319 In respect of the aforementioned petition and the responses received thus, Mr. Willie Smith and I would like to comment as follows. We note that no reply has been received from Scottish Amateur FA, Scottish Child Law centre and the Department for Work and Pensions. We are particularly eager to pursue responses from the Child Law centre and the DWP given the strong comments made by Mr. Tam Baillie regarding the legality of current football procedures. Indeed, as the Commissioner raises concerns about potential breaches of Scottish law (Age of Legal Capacity (Scotland) Act 1991) and European Law (UN Convention on the Rights of the Child) the Child Law centre must engage and provide opinion on these matters. The STUC also raise the question of legality when they write ‘There needs to be a thorough review by the appropriate bodies to establish why young players as young as eight are signing these agreements that appear to be to all intends and purposes a contract between two parties and in some cases may be illegal.’ The petitioners would respectfully suggest that consideration be given to referring these matters to the Justice Committee for further investigation. In addition we feel that the Scottish Schools FA should be afforded the opportunity to contribute to this Petition given this organisation accounts for over 30, 000 youngsters. Having reviewed the written submissions received from various organisations, Willie Smith and I would respond as follows.
