    As sugested by BrunNer, please post sensible questions that you would like Don Rowing to answer,time permiting, during the BBS meeting with him next week. Those attending will get to raise their own points and issues first and I have suggested that they PM with subjects they would like to raise. We will be limited to 1hour to and hour and half for the meeting.

    I would like to ask....getting some of our younger stars on longer contracts, surely these are lower risk in terms of money?

    Also... Any news on Patrick Crynes further commitment to the club? (i am also very grateful to Mr Cryne) ...is he committed to getting someone else in?

    Most clubs these days seem to have these so called 'three year' or 'five year' plans...do you at BFC have one? And if so what do you hope to achieve in that period?

    What does the club have to say about the category ticketing system from last year? What problems has the drop in season tickets caused?

    Why don't you come to the meeting? I could just imagine you flanking Don and nodding vigorously at everything he says.

    - What are the club doing off the field to try and get the supporters back that haven't renewed over the past few seasons? In the past the free child ticket offer increased the ST figures any other marketing idea in the pipeline?
    - The match day experience surveys that were done a few month ago, what were the conclusions from that survey, what has the club done since that survey to improve the match day experience?
    - New scoreboard? Another income stream?
    - How are the club looking for sponsors? It seems again we are going with only one stand, a corner stand and a sponsor of the academy. Other local clubs with less support and income seem to be attracting sponsors.

    That's quite a good point. Why don't you get yourself down, Hemsworth? It'd be good to meet you.

    This may have already happened but ........ At a lot of clubs,including Chelsea and Arsenal it's acceptable to wear smart casual clothes,including jeans and trainers, to the Hospitality and Executive boxes/seating ,wouldn't relaxing the current dress code at BFC for these areas widen the customer base for the premium seats/boxes.

    He is doing, mate

    I'm quite looking forward to putting a face to a BBS name with a lot of those going and it'd be great to finally meet Hemsworth.

    Do the club have a plan with regards to marketing and attracting investment? Too often it seems from the outside we lack creativity and vision off the field and constantly seem to miss opportunities
