This may have changed as I don't tend to buy anything in the ground given the high cost, poor quality and massive queues but when I have in the past always amazed me that at peak periods, ie: half time, they were never prepared for a rush. Have pints poured ready to go as you do at music festivals. The transaction shouldn't be go up ask for something and then wait a couple of minutes while one person wanders off to get it.@Sky Blue Pete Apologies if this has been raised in a previous meeting, but on the subject of long queues and waiting times, have the forum been asked about tackling the long queues in the concourse (especially at half time)?
Ah maybe this is what I was thinking. Club spend is club spend. I doubt a club like ours has tightly ring fenced budgets. Though maybe you know better than Boddy
I think you're right that budgets aren't tightly ring fenced. They'll spend extra in certain areas if they need it - certainly as far as the team goes.

We pay for our use of the stadium management company and the reason the queues are long is lack for staff and the reason for that is the one I gaveEr because if we don't its out of our hands and the stadium management company will make the call

they had a real ale bar open which had small queues as well but this was closed last game.
They have machines at festivals where you just put the glasses underneath, press a button and they pour 8 pints in one go.
Had happened before you asked

Against Fulham it started by the block 14/15 turnstiles so it they may have worked that issue out already

Ok another lie from the ccfc representatives at the supporters forum thenThere are plenty of staff
The meeting was well attended, most of the items discussed were of relevance to the broad supporter base. The tavern is excellent. I think that the relationship between the groups and the club has never been stronger in terms of respect and engagement.Meant to ask..

There’s a bit of sycophancy but not from the chair and vice chair. The notes are full and not always the sort of information that would ordinarily have been shared so easily in the past.
You can’t please everyone all the time and whilst there are limits to our influence I believe this is for the good of the club and supporters.
Not sure the terms of reference are as set as they should be. I’ve been surprised by how there are no no go areas and the Notes I’ve prepared are agreed with very few changes for public viewing
Love that saying lolAs my Mum used to say
You can please all of the peopl…
You can’t please some of the people all of…
All of some people, some of the time..
… fuck ‘em

They aren't that uncommon and they're pretty old, and therefore relatively cheap, technology these days. There's a newer, faster, system that pours your pint in 5 seconds on the counter so the server doesn't even need to turn round and pick it up!I love how all football fans are completely obsessed with these machines. Has anyone ever been to a stadium where they have them?

It appears that you’ve got to be comfortable with a barmaid fingering your rim m8

Having talked about the ever-growing number of Season Ticket holders, it is vital to us that we as a Club look after you, the supporters. To that end, we are in the process of expanding our staff at the Club. We have recently employed Alistair Whelan as our Customer Relationships Manager and we are in the process of advertising and recruiting for a Supporter Services Officer. Alistair’s role will include increasing the volume of data-led communications to supporters to enhance your experience as a Sky Blues fan, and increasing our use of data across the business. We will continue to develop the Club off the field to support the growing fan base, at a sensible and sustainable pace.
Mistake I reckonAny chance Pete next forum you could have a word about traffic on the road outside casino-is it Jude’s lane or Rowleys Green rd? Going onto Jimmy Hills Way roadabout.
They used to hold traffic there for a good 30 mins after the end of the match allowing fans a safe passage across but it seems that no longer applies and literally letting traffic through before majority are out of the ground.
Absolutely treacherous crossing there now (esp numbers going to Dillions) and it doesn’t take a genius to see that someone will get runover if it continues.
No idea why they’ve suddenly allowed traffic to go a lot earlier but please could you ask forum (or Stadium Safety person) to go back to holding traffic a little longer.

Good news. I do enjoy the growth of the club.PUSB: 'From The Board' versus Derby County
After each matchday programme this season, we publish the regular column from the Coventry City board on our website. You can read Coventry City Chief Executive Dave Boddy's column our game against Derby County below:www.ccfc.co.uk
You are correct don’t normally go that way and it was dodgy but isn’t it a police issue, Judds Lane and Rowleys Green Road certainly are.Any chance Pete next forum you could have a word about traffic on the road outside casino-is it Jude’s lane or Rowleys Green rd?

Would appreciate it if you could talk to your connections with the club as defo best to be proactive on this issue rather than waiting for an accident to happen.
