    We've got a Trust meeting with Don today. Anyone have any issues they would like to be raised with the club please PM me.

    just a couple of things

    I suppose you already have them on the list though

    1. New signings, any expected. Loan or otherwise?
    2. Injuries/suspensions. Any coming back, any close to suspension.

    That's all from me.

    See if he knows when Lindleys plan to listen to the negative comments of their customers. Like you said after your meeting with them that some changes would be implemented at the next home game, but a few games later and everything looks the same. Nothing new on the menu, no barriers to stop people pushing in to be served etc.

    We've got a forum lined up. Probably on the evening of Wed 17th of April for a group of fans to meet with LInldeys to sample the types of things they could offer at oakwell, discuss issues and a way forward for improving things. I will chase up what has been done in the mean time and also the state of the ponte bar application.

    Fancy coming along to put in your input when we have this forum? Anyone else interested?

    Like it. Reckon that would be more suitable for the BBS meeting with him next month though. Anyone want to chip in? ;)

    How much longer does he want money going behind bars in town until ten to three rather than proportionately into the club (Ponty bar) after Lindley cut

    Do you think a pop up bar in a stand will change this? There's one in the east stand - and I can tell you it doesn't. It's only going to make a difference if its a proper bar, in an area which all Reds fans can use, which is open from 12

    The licence has been applied for. Have asked Lindleys when they expect it to open. Will ask Don the same today.

    Two Questions:

    1. What initiatives from Team Tarn have the club taken up?
    2. Why wasn't it a pre-requisite of the Stones deal to have him loaned back?

    3. Why blow it when we held all the cards and let him go before the end of the season anyway! Pointless as we've done nothing with the money - nor the money from the cup run (of any note). I guess the ticket price cut will be subsidised from the cup run.

    My questions:

    (1) What is his favourite breed of dog?
    (2) Glavin, Redfearn & Hignett .... Snog, marry & avoid?
    (3) What is his favourite style of pancake?
    (4) Has he ever filmed himself "on the job" using a video camera or mobile device?
    (5) Can he do an impression of Sean Connery?
    (6) If he could sign any championship player, how much would the release clause in his contract be?
    (7) Does toast exist?
    (8) If I said you had a beautiful body, would you hold it against me?
    (9) Would putting Oakwell on wheels & taking the game to the fans increase attendances?
    (10) Are Skunthorpe still paying you?
    (11) Why do you look more like a darts player than someone involved in Association Football?
    (12) If you multiply the pairs of sandles you own by your pairs of spectacles & divide it by your cardigans - what day was Christmas on?
    (13) What is the atomic mass of osmium?
    (14) Don't you wish your girlfriend was hot like me?
    (15) It is though, isn't it?

    Straight questions for a straight talker.
