In the hope that AC reads this board, I have started this thread for fans to suggest ideas on what the board can do to try and get the fans back on side

I will start with

1/ only charge £3 to get into the Leicester game and give out a voucher for a free drink at the first home game
2/ Announce that CT has left the club to take up a different challenge in his career
3/ Allow Danny a few more signings
4/ Announce that there will be a pre season trip abroad very early and confirm that fans will be invited to be part of a sensibly priced club organised trip with maximum numbers on a first come first served basis

Please add your thoughts and ideas, try your best to keep them clean and sensible

Stop club officials from telling lies. No one trusts them and no one believes them.
A full and open honest inquiry into the PPP and the results made public.
I,would say dump turner, and replace him with a proper CEO and a finance director. Leadership with a clear objective and plan to achieve the objectives
Then explain, in detail how this splitting of the club from the rest of facilities is actually going to work, and the consequences of the team
Followed by a Q+A session after fans have digested the above to address concerns.

There may be a way for Allen to save face with Turner. From what I understand he is quite good at the football side of things, player contracts etc. The business side is his downfall. Maybe he could become director of football and just concentrate on the football side and bring in a fully qualified CEO to manage the business side.

Let's face it, number 2 ain't gonna happen. However the other 3 are sensible and reasonable strategies for improved relations.

Unless the club get back on track it will have to happen.If the club doesn't turn it around and become profitable he'll have to go.Even DA will come to that conclusion eventually. :unsure:

Many a good tune

That last suggestion will not happen EVER, emotions would run riot from the off. DA just rubs everyone up the wrong way with his brash attitude.

CT has no creedence and is viewed as the architect of all that is wrong.

Maybe Ashley on his own would be a start as I would give him the chance to try and smooth a way forward.

God I hate this league.

So good the bonus payments for Wembley outstripped the revenues meaning the club lost money. Absolute genius.

A good indication of where the fans are currently with the PR disasters and overall running of the club.

Family values,certainly not at the moment.

Time to step up to the plate CFC.

What has Liam Sutcliffe actually brought to the Club?

Other than a plethora of suspicious and negative stories, of course.

Yet another individual with a hugely questionable reputation embraced by Turner.

AC might be a better bet than Chris Turner but my feeling he's having to deal with s*it caused by super veg and until that is cleared, which could be sometime never,the club will be unable to heal the scars. :blink:

Many a good tune

That's the Chesterfield public speaking Mr Allen,can you hear them or do you want to loose more money than what you already are?Stop treating us like mugs,a complete clear out is needed,Turner,Carson must go and replaced with professional people who know how to treat customers,after all you manage to do it in your casinos.

I asked the same question in another thread and it was removed as part of the "sanitising" under the veil of 'libellous statements can be removed without notice or explanation' that went with other contributors comments.

To answer the initial question, and in light of the recent addressing of the Council loan, making a public and legally binding declaration that the football club will never be separated from the stadium might quell yet more suspicions.
