[Sky Blue Pete]

Questions please by 20 July. I’ll summarise them and send them to chair.

Definitively going to ask about lease and conversations regarding the cbs

Any others please?

[Levship20]

I was going to say exactly what you are already raising with the club Pete “lease”!!! What’s the plan? Are talks continuing???

 

[hill83]

What’s the craic with the ground medium to long term.

Nothing else I can think of. The rest is good right now.

 

[You'll Never Beat McPake]

How about are there any plans to move the press box area out of the west stand to create more seats for supporters. It seems an overly excessive area compared to other premier league and championship clubs

 

[CovRes]

Are there any plans to further improve the training facilities? Including moving to a site that can accommodate the academy. Or is promotion first the priority?

 

[skyblu3sk]

How many sexual favours are you planning on making Saddlebrains dole out before the season starts?

 

[TomRad85]

Any possibility of some Doug King merchandise? Thinking t-shirts, I'm picturing a print of his face on the King of Clubs playing card but even something as simple as a big picture of his head wearing a crown with the words 'long live the King' would do.

 

[PUSB-We_are_going_up]

Are there plans in the long term to try and take ownership of the stadium or build our own or are we happy maintaining current position of renting

 

[northstander]

Are there any plans to manage the flow of the concourses better now we're expected to sell out most weeks? Crush central at half-time.

 

[Sky Blue Goblin]

Has to be how the stadium talks are going and do we believe we’ll be fined. Outside of that can’t think of any of huge importance as it all seems to be in good hands

 

[mmttww]

I'm gonna channel my inner Saddle here and say that I'll give DK and co. handies if they can sort out a stall or two where I can just buy a portion of f*cken chips.

*sorry, Pete! appreciate you keeping this going.

In the same vein... can we have a cheaper range of merchandise with Will King's image... playing Emporio to Doug's Giorgio Armani?

Yea to add to this any plans to improve the fans experience in general.

It’s improved significantly, but anything else to stop the excessive queues for food/drink would be welcome.

There were suggestions on another thread of things like mobile beer people or self serve dispensers.

Also, can we please do something about people walking in the exit of the toilets, so infuriating and adds to how long it takes to have a wee at HT. Appreciate how petty this is, but it’s genuinely annoying.

It's literally impossible to teach event staff to serve pints quickly tbf

Every single time they dither, pour a massive head that takes ages to settle, fiddle with the card machine and then spend some time randomly pacing back and forth behind the bar/till. It's as if having a lobotomy is part of basic training.

 

[EPSB]

What are the chances of Season ticket holders being able to resell their seat for games they can’t make this season, in exchange for some kind of credit towards next seasons ST.

In a similar vein, allow ST holders to upgrade to hospitality on a game by game basis. I've considered taking myself and my son's to somewhere like the Mahou lounge for a special event, but not at the full price after shelling out for the STs. If we can upgrade the club can then sell my regular seat for that game.

Why are the kits ALWAYS late compared to the rest of the football league clubs

Why don’t they just pour like 80 pints slightly prior to half time? Knowing full well they will get sold

@Sky Blue Pete I’d like the club to clarify the ‘Cup Ticket Scheme’. Is this an option for STH to automatically purchase home cup game tickets.

I phoned the ticket office and they had no idea and were under the impression it couldn’t be done (it can, plenty of clubs do it) because of GDPR.

 

[peteCCFC]

Better storage for people that travel by bicycle. I've often nowhere to store my helmet and have to carry it in with me, making queuing difficult as i have to explain why im carrying a bike helmet. Maybe some lockers in or around the players entrance? That would definitely help people that travel to the game by bike and need to store stuff while watching the match.
The nearest/safest parking for bicycle is in Tesco car park, by the trolley bays.
I've sometimes locked it up by the casino, but often come back to find vandals have twisted the seat and/or handlebars.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thank you.
Pete.

This winds me up more than it should. I'm not the only one where I sit, which is in the West Stand, who has completely given up on trying to get anything at half time. You have to leave before the end of the half and then still miss the start of the second half.

It shouldn't be that difficult and the vast majority of other stadiums and arenas that hold large events don't seem to have the issues we do.

 

[LastGarrison]

If Lampard did meet Doyle and his agent in a swanky London restaurant and he doesn’t sign will we be invoicing him for their meals (plus tip)?

I went on the club shop website tonight.

There is a lot of holiday gear on there... almost aiming for people who like to buy & wear the new top when on hols to buy this lot as it's not out yet... in the expectation that you will buy the new top regardless!

AND YOU WILL!!!

It was only a greasy spoon,£6-00 tops!

Not me!
Not the target though!

 

[ccfc1234]

Could the club shop do more fashionable clothing. A huge logo on a tshirt is great but it's limited. They should use some of the reto logos (in a small doscret way) on plain black tshirts etc I got given some nice ccfc ankle gym socks, don't seem to be a thing anymore. How about creating a 'fans range' based on genuine customer feedback?

Might get AI to knock up some images today if work is boring.

They do this at many other sporting events.

The logic is so simple I’ve often wondered why we don’t do it.

 

[Saddlebrains]

If he was one inch inside his mum, but his dad was one inch inside him, which way would he move?





In all seriousness please ask why, since he has come in the only thing that's gotten worse is kit release

Covered in the last forum
Lots of spaces to lock the bike it’s hardly used

With all the talk of sexual favours this off season are there any plans to launch "sky blue lube"?

Try it in the South Stand where there's barely enough room in the concourse for the people, let alone getting to the bar.

because of GDPR.

Always a sign someone is talking bollocks.
