If they're announced in early October and the AGM is mid October I reckon you might be on to something!

RedM Posted September 15, 2016 Report Share Posted September 15, 2016 3 hours ago, cynic said: Well, he attends and also speaks up to fight our corner re televised games, can't ask for much more than that. The games might announced in batches but I can't believe they aren't already thought about and almost decided. I'm sure it's not because someone attends an AGM and shouts the loudest.

Never to the dark side Posted September 15, 2016 Author Report Share Posted September 15, 2016 A long time ago in Galaxy far far away, some one said if you want to get your views known at any AGM's buy ONE share in the company and you can attend the AGM of that company. Its better to make a comment to the Chief Executive or Chairman of the company than the complaints procedure of the said company. At the meetings,the top table tell you all all the wonderfull things about the company and then ask for questions from the floor. Attendances have dropped from approx 300 to maybe 150 over a fifteen year period. Most ask questions about the finance pensions auditors accountants etc I just request more live matches for Bristol City on Sky. If it does any good,I don't know,but if you don't ask you don't get. I could be very cynical and say we MIGHT get two more live matches in the December/January slot and the reason I am saying that, is the AGM takes place on Thursday 13 October just one day before our first of two live televised games. So I could be at the meeting wanting to ask for more Bristol City matches,and we could already be scheduled for FOUR live games. I am going to stick my neck out and say it will be Huddersfield away and Cardiif at home. Lets see what early October brings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ExiledAjax Posted September 15, 2016 Report Share Posted September 15, 2016 @Never to the dark side as part of my job I organise and run AGMs for companies. This includes attending them and taking notes of the shareholders' questions. I long for the day I have to do a note like: "Mr NTTDS raised the question of why more Bristol City games were not shown on live television. The Chairman thanked Mr NTTDS for the question and answered that he would personally ensure that all Bristol City away games and 50% of home games were broadcast from the beginning of the next season."

That is exactly why AGMs are held...for shareholders to raise legitimate questions about how a business is run, and exactly why SL doesn't allow them.

I presume you know his attendance has made national newspapers? if my memory serves correct, got a mention at the start of one AGM by none other than James Murdoch.

Steve McLaren was the first thought that came to me. or was it something like the 1st two teams to broadcast live from the FM transmitter or is it Rolls Royce?

Robbored Posted September 15, 2016 Report Share Posted September 15, 2016 Chowie almost got it. Derby v City at the Baseball Ground was the first ever live league match broadcast on terrestrial TV. City won that day 4-3 with Wayne Allison scoring for City. It was approximately 1992. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The first live televised match on the BBC was Barnet vs Wealdstone in 1946 The first live TV league match was Blackpool vs Bolton in 1960 on ITV.
