Nick, you're still not getting it. You telling me that a child who doesn't care for football much will never care for football ever? Seriously? My brother didn't like football at all until he was about 12 and then he became a confirmed City fan! So you're saying with my daughter I should...

Unbelievable. There has only been one team in this. England should be at least 3 goals clear and I may be wrong, but isn't that 2 shots, 2 goals for them?

Played well and totally dominated for 35 mins and then one mistake and we have gone a bit to pot. No way we should be losing this.

Would you honestly call that bribery? It's a package and for the kids I don't see why a day at the football game can't be a package. Once they are hooked they will be hooked, but at the end of the day none us want to see a losing football team and that hits kids all the harder.

You see, you have realise everyone is different, Nick. The only way I could get my daughter to Warwick Castle was if she knew there was a playground there. We like stately homes and English Heritage sites and stuff like that, but my daughter shows very little interest. If there is a...

Sorry, but a total overreaction and not what I have said at all. How on earth is it bribery? If my daughter went say maybe 8 or 9 times then she might well become a diehard supporter. No-one has suggested we will have to bribe our kids every week to go to games. That is totally ridiculous...

But can't you see there is something inbetween? It's not about ONLY going for the football or ONLY going for the fairground ride, it's something inbetween. Tell you now, if there were fairground rides at half time my little un would be there like a shot every week. She can last 30 mins at a...

It is a ridiculous argument to be fair. I expect better from you, Nick. I took my daughter to her first game and she was fine. Second time she wasn't as keen to go. As soon as I said she could take her games console to play before the game and maybe at half time, she was suddenly deadly keen...

No, not at all. Nick. I think you are completely missing the point. My daughter doesn't hate football, just likes the games for about 30 mins and then gets bored. If there were other things to do she would be much more likely to go. I take it you don't have children. Is that correct? If I say...

Exactly. We now live in a very technological world and the Americans have seen that and we need to compete with the XBoxes and the PS4's of this world and try and make the whole day a day of enjoyment. To turn it on its head, Grendel, if we won 1-0 in a rather dull drab affair, that little bit...

I think you mean Fran Kirby. Karen Carney scored the second with the header.

No, we shouldn't do anything to increase revenue. It is just the football and nothing else. No-one is interested in anything else. We should just make everyone arrive late and kids be strapped into their sky blue seats for 90 mins, with no entertainment whatsoever. We should never, ever try...

Right. didn't know that. Yep, if he's on contract then I would say that's a no. We will be looking for freebies and loans.

Plymouth Argyle, Rochdale, Torquay United, Wycombe Wanderers, Brentford, Rotherham United, West Bromwich Albion, Peterborough United, Walsall, Oldham Athletic and Yeovil Town. The bloke's had more clubs than Seve Ballesteros. But he has been scoring goals.

Yeah and when I got married I meant 'I don't' and not 'I do!'

Better than kick for cash might be to have people take penalties at a keeper. Maybe have the City youth keeper in goal and let people take pens against him. 5 pens and if they score from 3 they win a prize. Think with kick for cash was that most people struggled to hit the ball more than 10...

Some do want more though, Macca. Some are not getting through the turnstiles and they need enticing. Great football goes a long way to achieving that, but the better the match day experience is, then the more likely many will return.

Following on from this, I think it would also be fantastic to tie in with a highlighted game, if a player from the game was interviewed now, in the present day, speaking about that game in particular and reliving the memory. The club could also tie in with CWR, who have ex players interviewed...

Err, could you explain that to me in layman's terms? As a City fan I have no idea what 'giving the keeper problems' means.

Yep. I often ask that very same question of Joy Seppala.
