Blasphemy!!! Its always been **** City have never cared for or engaged with the public to any great degree. Lets hope we do it now.
I'm not sure what makes you think it will be any different this time though PLT ? Are you saying the Allams recognise the mistakes they have made in their treatment of fans and wish to make amends ? If the name change thing still hasn't been taken off the table how can we move on ?
The club do not want to hear that people don't like the things they've done. Any discussions will revolve around justifying what's done rather than considering if it was right, or done right. We desperately need a marketing manager and PR officer.
I think JM deserves a chance to do what he says he'll do before we judge him on that. If he doesn't deliver what he said then there's a problem. I agree with your second paragraph and I said something along those lines at the meeting: we need clarity and a resolution on the name change issue, and without that, talk of pie prices and marketing is insignificant.
Do you not think the timing of all this speaks volumes? If they'd really wanted fans views, they'd have done it before some of the more recent contentious decisions. Try pointing out something that goes against his flow, and see if he listens or if he justifies their position and dismisses other opinions.
If the club we're not going to re-apply, then they'd say so, it would be stupid not to. That being the case, I think we can be fairly sure the nonsense will start again shortly.
I hope you get invited again PLT. Sounds to me your doing a good job and fingers crossed this fans group can have some influence .
