Just remembered
Row A of the north and south stand will be sold when the police allow us to.

Next time we have a sell out can we knock the lost revenue off the policing costs?

Given the good behaviour against Mansfield, what more do they need to see? I know you won't be able to answer that but it is stopping the club earning additional income on the off chance that we have a sell out.

Some right fun and games with cars trying to leave the car park straight after the game last night! Saw a guy pushing someone in a wheelchair mouth off at someone in a silver BMW and the driver then get out and give the bloke a right mouthfull back - how long before some blows are exchanged over this issue??

I saw that. Pointed out the car to the nearest few stewards. Not sure what was done about it but I sincerely hope he gets his pass taken off him. A few people including myself told him that he shouldn't have been driving through so shortly after the final whistle

It was intimidating and totally uncalled for - especially when they should know the rules

No it's not Baz.

Fans were invited to make an application to represent different sections of supporters on the clubs official site early in the summer.

There are folks representing all three home stands,away travelling fans,disabled fans,etc.

Ages of forum members range from 20s to over 60.

There are seven males and one female.

I personally would have liked to have seen a more even split,Marcia however may have been the only female applicant?

its good that we have got a female fan onboard in a project like this.........................otherwise who would make the tea?

I do hope that the farcical ticketing situation gets a good airing at the next pow wow?
1 - The woman with the glasses is the most surly miserable so and so it has ever been my misfortune to stumble across.
2 - Folk were phoning the club for hours last Friday trying to book tickets - most of the time the calls rang for a few min utes then the line went dead.
3 - When a lot of people are only able to make it to the club to actually buy tickets in person on a matchday, why, oh why did they then decide that no tickets for the FA Cup game would be on sale on the matchday? No rather than the club go out of its way to entice folk to buy tickets they instead made it so that some folk would have to take time off of work to go down there on a workday at an inconvenience to them.
4 - there are 3 ticket hatches yet I don't think i've ever seen all of them being manned at the same time! Even when we were in line for a couple of hours for the Scabs JPT tickets only 2 of the 3 were being used.

I'm sure there's more issues that could be raised, but they ought to serve as a good starting point. The club should be bending over backwards to try to entice fans through the turnstiles (especially during our current poor run)but instead it seems like they view us as an inconvenience at times; and that it should be us that goes out of our way in order to attend fixtures not the other way around. At this rate I'll be hankering back to the days of Norton serving me from behind the wooden hatch at Saltergate!

Was there a mention that we were possibly looking into a new electronic scoreboard?

Thank you.

They need to keep checking the sauce stations in the south stand, they've been empty for the last two games!!!!

You can pass on my thanks for changing the hot chocolate supplier. The new one is much better

Ashley Carson promised me a free Armand keyring on twitter for going to Exeter but being a season ticket holder. Could you ask them to get him to cough up please

[The Earl of Chesterfield]

Is this the place to post ideas for the CEO?

If so I'll repeat the suggestion that we televise the Staglet game at the Proact, either in the lounges or even a full sized screen in front of the Kop. Charge enough to at least cover costs (would folk find a tenner about right? Mebbe a couple of quid more if necessary? Could the supporters society/club subsidise the event?) then whatever we make from the concourse/bars is Comedy Radford's loss. It's a win-win.

Worth a few phone calls, perhaps?

[Westbars Spireite]

Tenner inc first drink would be about right. Assuming we're top end still there'd be big demand for this if the technical side can be sorted.
