Assuming nothing is announced in the next couple of days can we try and get some sort of timeline on when season ticket info will be announced and tickets put on sale

Appreciate at the moment we've technically got nowhere to play but if we leave it much longer people will be spending the money on holidays and other things and sales will take a hit, especially if prices are higher than this year

Can you then ask why they allow supporters groups to allocate tickets to fans who dont qualify in the necessary priority windows then?

‘He won’t answer that as we don’t own the ground’

What about a football question?

‘We didn’t sell Hyam because of cash flow, scout’s honour’

What about season tickets?

‘Stop asking about the free gift’

Can Rob from the forum sell CCFC adult toys in the club shop?

‘Yes’

So the chair of the supporters forum and the chair of the London supporters club is the fans representative on the SAG

He is a health and safety professional which is why he’s on the group

Colin Henderson is the guy

Questions from all groups


Questions for Dave Boddy – 13th ~April 2023 @ 5.00pm

1. What is the club’s vision / dream for the 2023/2024 season? (SBTalk)
2. How effective has the new points system for away match tickets been so far this season? Are you anticipating making any changes for 2023-24? (CCLSC)
3. Would the club consider the possibility of allocation a number of tickets to each supporters group to sell should the club reach Wembley? (SWSC)
4. Can you up-date the group on communication between the club and the Arena on opening times for fans to access the stadium? This was a particular problem for the Sunderland game which was an early kick-off. There was a significant delay before fans were able to access the stadium. (CCLSC)
5. The Annecdote bar has on occasion employed staff to work behind the bar who were unable to serve alcohol. This led to increases in queues and waiting times. Were the club aware of this issue? (CCLSC)
6. Where will be playing next season? Will we know before season tickets are on sale? (SBTalk)
7. Can we please have an up-date on season ticket prices and availability for the 2023-24 season? (CCLSC)
8. Will there continue to be an early bird price for existing season ticket holders. (CCLSC)
9. There were a record number of season ticket holders in 2022-2023. However, the large number included of concessionary tickets and free JSB season tickets? Would it be help to explain the numbers in more detail ahead of the 2023-2024 ticket prices? It may help fans understand any price changes for 2023-2024 and the impact on the club’s revenues. (CCLSC)
10. What is the actual position with Ticketmaster and the club receiving the money for season tickets? (Is it when season tickets are paid for or when the game is played). (CCLSC)
11. Is there any update on Safe Standing at the CBS Arena? Moving away fans? (SBTalk)
12. Will season ticket holders be able to move their seats for free (as in previous years? (CCLSC)
13. Would the club consider officially affiliating the individual supporter groups? Could the club consider having a section for supporter club’s details in the match day programme? (SWSC)
14. Match Day programmes: The number of fans drinking at Dhillon’s on match day is increasing. Would the club consider selling match day programmes at Dhillon’s or in the vicinity of Dhillon’s? More visibility around the ground and the concourse would be helpful. Could this be considered? (SWSC).
15. Can any improvements be made to speed up the exit from Car Park A after the game? (Diamond Club). Can more staff be deployed to help improve exit from both car parks. It is a free for all at the moment. (SBTalk)
16. Corporate Area Dress code: Staff try to stop unacceptable dress code issues. However there continues to be some supporters, particularly some ladies who continue to wear torn jeans and replica shirts which they hide under their coats on entry. These ladies are not teenagers but mature ladies. Are there any plans to address this for 2023-2024? (Corporate Members)
17. Who decision was it to ban replica shirts in the Premier Lounge? Can the decision be rescinded? (Diamond Club)
18. When will Supporter’s Clubs be able to present their Player of Year Trophies to the winning players? (SWSC)
19. Shirt sponsorship by gambling companies is becoming a little more toxic. Recently both Italy and Spain have announced bans. What plans have the club for future shirt sponsorship? (CCFPA)
20. How has the training ground ownership been addressed during the sale to Doug King? Was the ownership of the training ground transferred from the club to a SISU parent club in the past? Also was the training groundsubject of a sale offer subject to alternative site being made available. (SBTrust)
21. Have the club considered purchasing the Connexion which used to be owned by the club? The building offers excellent facilities. The Cricket Hall could be pulled down and re-used as two further training pitches. The existing Ryton buildings could then revert to it’s formal use as a home for young club apprentices. (Corporate Members)
22. Are Supporters Club’s still being expected to pay a large membership fee, i.e., £1,500 to enable players to attend supporter’s meetings, and priority for away tickets? (W&LSC)
23. When will the W&LSC be welcomed back by the club? (W&LSC)
24. Are the club talking to the SAG about how they can retain and improve the atmosphere? And how to accommodate crowds over 25,000? (SBTalk)
25. Are there any plans to open block 13? (SBTalk)
26. Why are we one of the few clubs that has blocks between fans? (SBTalk)
27. Are there any plans to have Sky TV back on the concourse (SBTalk)
28. Are the club aware of the train timetable change? The first train back to Coventry after the game is now 5.50pm? Has a representation been made to the train company? (SBTalk)/ CCLSC
29. Can access and transportation options top and from the stadium be improved. It seems very poor compared with many stadiums in the Championship? From memory we had a very efficient busing option to the ground from various locations when the stadium was first built. If this was improved it could help increase attendances further. (CCLSC)

meeting isn’t gonna ever finish lol

Great that we've got time to ask about Wembley tickets (?) and extra allocation for the local supporters clubs (?!), plus literally a question about Doug's dreams in the first three items of a 29-point agenda, but apparently no time to ask about an undelivered promise made to every ST holder that seems to be getting brushed under the carpet.

How do we decide who gets to attend these meetings again?

To be honest they've phrased the question so poorly I'd just say "yes, we'll change the dress code"

Is it a capacity issue on O2? I have the same problem at the Skydome or when I'm at a big-ish gig, or even at the o2 arena. At all those places people seem to be happily online on their phones, maybe O2 is just shit. If it wasn't for the priority tickets I'd ditch them.
