Fans forum tonight

So what you're saying is, the problem is that more football clubs aren't run like businesses?

 

Surely in this day and age if we can't issue people with some kind of access pass/ticket then I give up, it's hardly rocket science

 

These things simply don't work well intentioned on both side but it's just car crash. I have lot's of options on who should play and where but to put them to our head coach mid season is just daft,how would you feel if you were told to turn up at your place of work and be grilled by people about your performance at work. The question re kits were spot on but couldn't that point and lack of response be brought up by the supporters trust. This in my opinion care or they wouldn't put themselves through things like this we just need to trust them to get on with it. The alternative guessing no one got a few hundred million in their isa they want to rid of sharpish is risk inviting more shark's like Conway and co to feed on us. The truth of it is the only thing we can do is turn up on Saturdays and support our team regardless ureds.

 

I agree, Colin’s really shouldn’t be there for this. It’s not fair on him and he rightfully looks fed up at them. For me the thing becomes a bit of a farce when the questions are meandering around and don’t actually have any substance. Hats off to them for doing it but I do think it has run its course in this format.
An alternative way would be for them to do a monthly Q&A where supporters can submit questions online and maybe a member of the trust could collate them into say 5 questions which the board can answer in a document that gets posted online. Would save a lot of time and think we would still be able to get the important questions answered.

 

I get your point but monthly seems abit often and your only going to get a politically correct answer. It's a difficult situation because alot of its non of our business not our money but it is because we are emotionally invested if you get what I mean.

 

Very true! I think in this day of instant information we get impatient very quickly. Maybe quarterly would be a good compromise as that would be a good spread throughout the year. As long as they keep fans informed then it will get a lot of them off their back.

 

Can we get the PA to play 'Born in the USA' at the next home game just before the players come out?

You know, just for sh*ts and giggles

 

Well done to all involved, apart from Captain America.
We should all appreciate the time and effort the Board put into things like this. I think we're in good hands. These guys seem to care about our club. For them to put up with the tedious moaning and negativity is a real test of their patience.
Long may they stay.

 

That about sums up my feelings too

 

The pillerk answered the shirt question for everyone else, it's not my view on the shirt.

"It's not a famous shirt, we only had it for one season."

We've had them all every season since the season before the stars shirt.

 

I think the problem is a little more obtuse than that.

Big Business is pretending that football is run as a business. This misinformation is plugged into the heads of all fans despite the opposite being true.

 

Yeah he definitely sounded stupid with that. I hate the shirt but even I know that some fans like it.

If he wanted to mention the shirt he could have said the combination of the sponsors eagle and the stars on the same shirt designed by an American designer gives the impression of us being an American club. I don't think it was wise to use the stars design when we have that particular sponsor, maybe it should have been kept for a different season.
Or something

 

Really enjoyed the fan zone.

 

Was that him in front of the camera on the left hand side? Mentioned about better food than burgers or something? Where's he been? The foods been spot on, here's the guy
