    Thanks for everyone that attended. It was very insightful and I think everyone would agree Don was very honest and didn't dodge any questions.

    I will try and post some notes that I made for the meeting but Im a bit knackered after having to drive back to Preston so its going to have to wait till tomorow.

    I notice that Journo Tyke has tweeted some highlights here

    https://twitter.com/Al_Cooper7 (Bit disappointing he hasn't posted them here since it was organised on behalf of the BBS but...)

    Sorry Gally... it's just much easier on my phone to tweet them than try typing on here.

    I'll happily copy them on here if people would like me to do so.

    Apparently been relaxed this year - smart jeans allowed. So your usual smart casual dress code.

    Yeah I asked as you requested when we discussed the exec suite and as Dyson said smart jeans are allowed this year.

    There is also going to be another exec area for people who want to come in and have a drink before and after the match and at half time. There will also be a range of food available to buy. Don suggested to those there that they come and give it a try. If people are interested I could suggest we get a group together to try it one match day? We might be able to negotiate a discount?

    Don't forget, he didn't want to see trainers or "ripped jeans" though. (i did hear that didn't I ?)

    Balls, that means I can't bring the lead singer of Dexy's Midnight Runners with me. I'm not ******* going then.

    He didn't have the answer to your morals questions either! He did ask for your Mam's address though?

    Not at all apart from specific financial figures that were quoted that are commercially sensitive. Have a look at Journo Tykes twitter feed at https://twitter.com/Al_Cooper7 I will be doing a report but it probably wont be until tonight as Ive got a really busy day. There are other snippets scattered across a couple of threads on here as well
