    I am not too upset about Potts going, as long as we get good replacements. What worries me more is... is this another sign of false hope with the owners/regime. I maybe a little paranoid but was saying to the better half last week, the enthusiasm and effort for the match day experience in the family stand has dwindled (nothing new, no promises of pictures of players or even players turning up) i know this may sound trivial but it just feels like something has slipped somewhere (i gave praise to the club early on in the season). Hope i am wrong but something is not right!

    I have been saying the same thing about the family zone. Even stopped putting the games out. Think I’ve only once seen players come up, keep repeating the things that’s been on already.

    I can confirm that the tampon basket hasn't dwindled. Plus there have been plenty of photos with players in the disabled stand as usual.

    icing on the cake for me. it's what happens on the pitch that brings punters in. ultimately i don't believe it's an either/or, and i do think you should have both. but if it's down to a priority call for now, i understand that.

    Plenty of games out at the Charlton game? Kieffer was up there signing autographs at half time.

    The half time entertainment if you can call it that , is a shambles. Couple of drunks spinning round a ball is a bit pathetic then they get naff all for winning. Rather have a couple of kids take penalties against Toby Type and give the winner a scarf or something from the club shop.

    I think a few public executions would make it a bit more entertaining.

    Those dancers we had about 5 years ago were quite fit. Used to have marching bands when I was a kid, be nice to hear Grimethorpe Colliery band perform. These rock choirs that they have up and down the country also sound really good. Seems like spending any money is off the agenda though so I think we're stuck with the two drunks.

    Nudge dressed as Albert Pierrepoint giving GG the Madame Guillotine treatment on week one.

    It can get more gruesome each home game after that....

    It was always considered a good stand by in the old days.

    The half time entertainment is a hard one I personally don't mind/care whatever. But they could organise a suprise oasis reunion at half-time and someone would moan. Just how it is no matter what they put on they won't please everyone.

    I would moan at an Oasis reunion.

    The Romans in particular understood that....never rest on your laurels with the same old same old stuff, people haven't got the attention span to appreciate the finer points of Gladiator Christian slaughter....next time throw a Lion in as a wildcard.
