I’d like to hear about the shambles with the new kits, the new badge and why they are screwing up our manager with playing budgets. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bristol Rob Posted September 1, 2023 Report Share Posted September 1, 2023 Without knowing who from the club has accepted the meeting, it is isn't clear what sort of questions would be appropriate. CEO attends, questions about how the budget hasn't been adjusted following the Scott sale. Retail Manager - kit availability. Just two examples of what might be appropriate questions to ask. Also, without knowing what is on the agenda people might not submit questions as their point might already be covered. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only regular attendees are Jerry Tocknell and the A&S liaison officer (his name has completely escaped me this morning) There is a meeting that myself and two others are holding with Phil Alexander and Dave Barton the week after - but as above the ideal scenario is to email questions rather than raise on here For info though during the past month; @Steve Watts asked about a sub forum for SC&T members to raise questions @Abingdon Red asked about the additional booking fees @daored asked about reciprocal pricing with Leeds @myol'man Why is the Lansdown Stand being used for WSL games Where applicable I will raise at the SC&T meeting, otherwise I will raise on the other meeting 1 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you for your response, no insults were intended, I think my (I won't speak for others) main gripe is I don't see any supporters benefits that you talk about, that's not to say there aren't any, may e not published enough? I'll go back to a question I asked months and months ago that I believe was deferred, now the sporting quarter has planning permission can a memorial garden for lost supporters be planned for? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

daored Posted September 5, 2023 Report Share Posted September 5, 2023 Hi @phantom, thank you for raising ticket prices. Below are the ticket prices Leeds are charging Watford , which to be fair is very reasonable and I guess shows what can be agreed. he club has agreed reciprocal pricing with Leeds United, meaning adult ticket prices for those following the Hornets to Elland Road are just £20, with adult concessions at £10. We have also arranged with Leeds United that tickets for all those aged 18 & under will be only £5, so this match has been selected as another Junior Hornets Away Day. Please see below for more information. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hello Dave Posted September 5, 2023 Report Share Posted September 5, 2023 Not being negative, just asking a genuine question. Does the club ever listen to any proposals from the SC&T? If so, have they ever changed a policy or implemented something raised? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thatcham red Posted September 5, 2023 Report Share Posted September 5, 2023 Yes Rob. A feature of no meetings for 2 months and people notifying issues that they want discussed. We'll give it a go. Stu 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thatcham red Posted September 5, 2023 Report Share Posted September 5, 2023 Yes, plenty of changes accepted over the years. Most of what we have done has been proactive though like commissioning statues, Hall of Fame, end of season awards, running a bar etc. We've influenced things like ticket sales and fees, stadium design, more recently reversing decisions on disabled parking fees and things like that. We probably will never know the extent of our influence, but as long as change happens, that works for us. A big initiative currently is to help get our football club in a good place to respond to the recommendations coming out of the fan led review. The thing we have always been bemused by is why the football club doesn't consult fans and ask for their opinion in advance of things like kit design. We wouldn't have that third kit now if they had!
