    So what questions should we ask this evening?

    Anyone not going who has a question they'd like putting to Ben or Danny?

    I'd like to know why Hemmings is on a 1yr deal, while the rest of the signings (Berry, Winnall, Turnbull, Bailey, Hourihane) are all on 2/3 yr deals. Did the club see him as a gamble or was this the only deal Hemmings would sign? What happens if he scores 10 goals before the Jan window opens, do we have an option on his contract?

    If you're going could you ask about the score board.

    To Ben

    How do they plan on disturbing away tickets this season, now we've dropped a league and have a very good away following some grounds are not going to be able to accommodate all the reds fans that wish to watch us away, have the club got any plans in place to reward fans who travel week in week out,

    I can answer that now. The scoreboard is on hold due to cost and with us now in League 1 we're channeling funds to the squad instead.

    I think one of the issues was not the cost of the scoreboard, but the additional cost of installing it, which was at least as much again.

    How much can a scoreboard/installation cost? Let's all chip in.

    Over £200,000. So even if 2000 chipped in (which they wouldn't) they'd have to stump up £200 each!

    I would genuinely be up for doing that (although I'm aware 1999 other people wouldn't). Those numbers don't add up though!

    Well yeah. And rightly so. We're in the tinpot alehouse league and we just lost about £4m getting relegated. I don't give a **** about the scoreboard anymore. Better things to spend our money on. Switch it off entirely for me.

    i would suspect they have indeed got the money but don't want to spend it.

    but maybe this is a question for tonight. then we could get the answer from the horses mouth so to speak. Whether that would be a truthful answer would then be the debate.

    A better answer would be 'we're not having one yet' and not give a reason as that would be the complete truth.

    there may be some ducking and diving tonight by the powers that be....interesting maybe.
