Probably worth a bump.

Will be interesting now we know we’re back. Good chance for supporters to make some requests for a better match day experience. We’re at the Ricoh for seven years minimum, may as well make the most of it.

Think I'm going to wait for either Wasps or CCFC to confirm we're back before I fire in my list of demands!

Not if the Welsh Supporters Club badges haven't been sorted.

Really concerned of the lack of progress on these

I know many people didn’t even think it was worth asking a question about it before this news broke, but surely we now need to ask why the timeframe for a new stadium appears to have doubled?

Myself and Pete are already looking at arranging a meeting to discuss match day experience/fan engagement.

Open one of the behind the goals.
Turn one of the car parks or the exhibition hall into a fan zone.
Ban the drum.

Fan zone would be great. Especially with potential bigger crowds.

Better concourse access at the Ricoh too

At the edge of the concourse, not the bar/shop side the side with the toilets. If they put a few benches/tables and stools there and let everyone in a bit earlier they'd generate more revenue.

Where has that been said? You seem to be trying to push something again.

Fan Zone would be a great idea. Money to be made from F&B and Merch there. Take the Casino crowd's money into our coffers (or some of it). Also encourage the families to get there earlier, make it enjoyable for the young ones.

The FanZone wouldn't even need to be spectacular, at MK it's just a gazebo with a bar but everyone has a great time.

Fan Zone would need to be a bit smaller I think, when it was the whole hall it was a bit too big to be doing that every week.

The initial plan was for a new stadium within five years. We now apparently have a contract to play at another stadium for ten years. If the new stadium is so important to our long-term future, and the Ricoh such a millstone around our necks, why is the new stadium taking so much longer than we initially thought, and how damaging will this be to the club?

In theory its dealt with by a breakout clause after 7 years

No? I'm going by Les Reid's reports on the stadium deal last year.

Looks like Boddy has just confirmed there's a seven year break clause - so we're minimum three years behind target then. Is it unreasonable to ask why that is, and what damage that could do?

I doubt he even believes there will be a new stadium himself.

Close from the back!! Hate having three empty stands. Don’t give a fuck if Johnny Hardpants has sat at the back of everything since Y8 Maths class, it ruins the atmosphere and makes it really unattractive to those watching on who might think about attending.

I wanna raise monetisation of casual fans again. The club don’t make anything like enough of their brand, and the jumps from “lurker” to “casual fan” to “season ticket” to “corporate” to “juggy” is too severe.

Subscriptions, loot boxes, special events, little badges/scarves, all missed opportunities. Somethings wrong when your average 21 year old on Only Fans monetises their assets better than a 150 year old football club.
