I know not one person who assumes the project is a done dealIf it exposes a pointless sham for what it is, then it serves a very useful purpose. It's crazy to me that people aren't more skeptical about this project and assume it's a done deal. If we just sit and patiently wait for the next update then that won't change.
When this all kicked off again we had a sizeable minority saying give them a chance, wait and see what'll happen - that'll never change however long this drags out.If it exposes a pointless sham for what it is, then it serves a very useful purpose.

I was being politeSizeable minority? The reaction to the stadium announcement on this board was ecstatic. If the club thought they needed to work hard to win over the fans then they needn't have worried - this very board sent them a statement saying how "delighted" we all were within hours of the first press release.
I've got a question about changes in recruitment focus post-brexit that might be interesting to ask in a public forum. Will chuck something over to you before the meeting.
I presume it’s the ‘bloody difficult to recruit any players from the EU & have we shifted our attention to South America & Scotland...’

Money making scheme robbed from Forest Green. Sell Mystery boxes to shift sale and old stock. They have been flogging a box of upto £70 worth of branded tat for £15 a pop. Just choose the size. They have pretty much sold out.

Isn’t that just a review of the previous game?What's the point of a pointless update?
Do you have attendance figures for our games?
Just seen they've started the Birmingham away game is our biggest selling away game to date with just shy of 3,400 sold. Wonder how that compares with other teams.
Same, was genuinely shocked we'd only had that amount for a game. I know not every member will buy away games (my dad doesn't for one) but you'd imagine the majority do. Was there 3,000 members? Obviously some will share households so one stream covers multiple, but I am really struggling to see that many falling into that category.and wonder how it compares to home games. Home games might be skewed due to membership holders. Surprised that's our highest for an away game to be honest, thought it'd be more.
Why would anyone who watches home games not watch away games? Assume for some it will be financial reasons but besides that I don't see why you'd watch one and not the other.Same, was genuinely shocked we'd only had that amount for a game.

As you said, will be interesting to see how that compares to other sides, but on the face of it, that seems like a very, very poor effort
My dads take is he has paid for his season ticket to watch the home games, and he doesnt want to pay to watch more, which I would get if money was remotely an issue for him, but it's not. Just stubborn and tight I think. He uses my Sky Go too as he doesn't want to pay for sky (non-existent financial reasons rather than morals)Why would anyone who watches home games not watch away games?

Habit. Many of us are home fans only or rarely go away. I'm not keen on shelling out another £200 to watch away games when I've paid for home games I can't get to attend. Retired, you see. It doesn't help that we're pretty poor away and expect to lose, of course ... and the quality picture on ifollow is so poor for my eyes anyway.Why would anyone who watches home games not watch away games?

They capped it pretty low.
How many season ticket holders do we have?
Cap was 3,500.
How many season ticket holders do we have?
So 2000+3500=5500Cap was 3,500.
Got Tbh watched one game hated it rather listen go the radio.They capped it pretty low.
Total showing is pretty dismal, really. Not like we have much else to do that you can't get a game or two in, at least!
That said, in limiting who could sign up for the full season ticket early on, they probably stopped some people bothering. I guess as job security's limited atm, that won't help either.
YepCould you ask Boddy if he were post on SBT what name would he use..

Just to make you feel a little better, I'm sure I heard/read that even next seasons kit had already been signed off....Oh ignored my question about fan participation on design of next seasons kit.

Someone was trying to sell fake shirts the other day. When called out response was basically why should the club make money on shirts when it has millionaire owners...Have they stopped the dodgy FB streams now? Or have people just learned to to boast about ripping the club off on here?
