I know at the meeting it didnt but you/me have no idea really what a lot of fans like or want. So every bloke there was late 40's and above, pretty good chance they would all feel the same way about things.

There were people there in there 20's, 30's, 40's, 50's, 60's and 70's and one of them wasn't even a bloke. Do you know anyone, of any age, who doesn't think goal music is ****?

As other clubs do it, then some people must like it.
I repeat i dont like it.
Thanks for finally telling me the make up of the group. i'd put it twice, all over 40 without you correcting me.
 
I like goal music and I'd like to see it introduced.

We should have a poll.

Solution would be for each seat to have it's own headphone jack. For those that want it, take your own headphones and plug
'em in every time we score.

You could even have different music options for each stand

South - We are Family
West - Money !
East - Neanderthal Man
North - What's Your Name

Director's Box - My Way

Genius solution
Also can I get a draft real ale pump installed at my seat as well? I could prepay and then top up my account as needed ( actually didn't St Pauli do that?)
Also the away end could have headphones sockets, but they would just play Reel Big Fish's "**** off song" ...on a loop
 
Apart from, which is as all right thinking people realised the only option to get our football club going in the right direction.
Airco Arena – JM feels sorry for the clubs who’ll no longer have access to it. Apparently this was a final resort after exhausting all other options. Bishop Burton was not an option due to the timescale which the college couldn’t agree to. The audit is in April and the next opportunity would be in 18 months’ time if this is missed. The club believes that it will satisfy the terms of the lease regarding community use by providing access to local football clubs when it’s not being used by the academy or first team. The club also believe that this arrangement will be enough to satisfy the PL’s requirements, namely that a Category 2 academy’s covered pitch must be used exclusively by the club. JM has offered to meet a group representing most of the local clubs but they have asked to meet one of the owners. Discussions continue.

The only other thing is the women in South Stand are big ****ters. Charlie?
I couldn't possibly comment on the bathroom habits of the ladies of the south stand Chaz as we are far too busy to notice such things in the west stand as we gaze admiringly at our own reflections in the mirrors that we had installed months ago.
 
I doubt democracy plays a part. Up until recently I'd never met anyone that likes the stand introductions. many absolutely loath it, but I doubt it's going anywhere soon for some odd reason.

Charlie why dont you go as a fans rep off here, it certainly needs more females on the fwg.

My memorys crap but i'm sure it got stopped a few years ago but people complained and it was brought back. Not sure how long ago that was.

It got stopped, and a few people at one OSC meeting (Cottingham I think) said they missed it, so Adam Pearson brought it back.
 
I was invited to put you in touch with the Catering guy Henry Crane. He seemed quite open to it. Apparently the cheese pizza you mentioned is available in everywhere but lower west.

Thanks. Appreciate you asking. I'll try and find his email on the club site? There's definitely no cheese pizza in South East corner...
 
Away Supporters’ Initiative – There is a debate ongoing in the offices about what to do with the £200k set aside by the PL for away supporters. Some of the money has been spent on Arsenal away. There is money still to be spent and JM accepted that this should have been sorted long ago. No specific or general figures could be given. It was pointed out that the FWG has agreed unanimously on more than one occasion to spend this money on subsidising tickets rather than travel but some unspecified people at the club are against this idea and prefer it to be spent on travel or even on improving the experience for away fans at the KC, rather than on our owns fans. It was asked by more than one person on what basis anyone can be against subsidising tickets, and specifically how subsidised travel can be a better option. JM wasn’t able to answer this, but agreed to provide an update by the end of the week.

...

We ran out of time so I've sent the last couple of questions to JM via e-mail afterwards:

PA System – I put to him the points raised on here about it being poor in some areas.

Ballboys - I mentioned the recent home game (QPR?) where a few of us felt they were very slow getting the ball back in when the team needed a goal and asked if they are briefed to get it back as quickly as possible when the team need it.

Once I get a response on those last two I’ll post them.

An email was sent round this morning. The update on Away Supporters' Initiative is that there's no update yet. JM is confident we will make progress on this though.

No answer to the other questions yet but I don't really expect them to be a priority right now.

Yeah I remember it being stopped.

We should just stop clapping and cheering to it. Let it get quieter and quieter for a few games until they realise.
