As the title says it's next Tuesday. Use this thread to bring up any points you want me to raise, questions to ask, etc.
Are these meetings just for general points? If so I'd be grateful if you could ask about vegetarian/vegan food. At the minute the only vegetarian option seems to be a Bombay Vegetable pie (I assume it's vegetarian but never asked as it doesn't appeal). I sent the club a message on Facebook a while ago asking if they could provide more vegetarian options and was promised that a cheese pizza would be coming as it was at the time being trialled in one stand (East I think). I've never seen said pizza . I've since turned vegan anyway so even a cheese pizza is out . So yeah if you could ask if they have any plans to provide more animal free food I'd be grateful. I won't hold my breath for any to materialise though.
What are the plans for the remainder of the £200k premier league travel money? What is being done to look at the issues of the queues at turnstiles? Are the problems with the tannoys/public announcements being looked at? Some speakers, such as E4 play music okay, but announcements are inaudible.
Yes the sound system definitely needs improving. In the South East corner it is impossible to make out anything that is being said. If I didn't already know Tommy coyle and Luke Campbell were going to be at the last game then I wouldn't have been able to tell as I didn't catch a word of it. It just sounds like muffled noise. I really hope they don't need me to move my car ever...
The queues at the last home game turnstiles for east stand was hurrendous only just got in in time for kick off
Why are there queues? I don't understand why there is a need for instructional videos and stuff. It seems a simple procedure to me, scan the barcode and walk in. Should be quicker than handing to a human. What are the issues causing queues??
the queues are caused by all the scanners not workin they was only two workin on turnstiles 6 a to c at the sunderland game
See if you can get them to **** off the "Good afternoon West Stand" bullshit. It's embarrasing and enemy fans jeer at it giving them a bit of hype before kick off.
New seasons pass prices/dates, the Away Supporters Initiative money, next seasons kits and the SAG meeting are already on the agenda.
I asked the club that and was told there was a big outcry when it was suggested it was removed and a 'campaign' to keep it. All I can recall is a few dozen at the Cottingham OSC meeting saying they like it. I thought there must be some contractual reason for it to continue, but seemingly not. It really is naff though.
Can we change the music when the teams are read out? We've had the same one for years and it sounds really, really camp. Especially when it starts making that whooping noise and the old people start clapping. Get a song that's going to get our fans going, not one that makes them think they're in a German discotheque.
The queues into the North Stand before a game is the big one for me - it doesn't matter what time you get there there'll always be a queue, and if you're less than 20 minutes before kick off it's tight to see the start. The other one is would it be possible to open the gate into the West Stand to use their concourse facilities? It's far too cramped in the North as it is for food and drink and the toilets at half time, as well as there been hardly any space to stand with your pint. If it was opened out it would be much more comfortable for everyone.
You must be joking! Allowing the North stand savages within proximity of the dignified and gentle folk of the west? What planet are you on?
Can you ask why we're accomodating vegans in the stadium? Is there a national statistic we have to reach?
