Re: Commercial Ideas to attract more/new fans

I agree about attracting kids. Our pay on the gate rate for kids a prohibitive to so many people. Kids are unpredictable; you suggest doing something (buy a ticket in advance) then they don't want to do it. Then they say they want to do something on the day. We have so few kids in the ground these d...

Re: TBS

Was he complaining that I was one of those giving abuse tonight?
Like I was one of those screaming abuse on Saturday?

Re: Still threatens to leave

@Adrian you should read the post about the last offer letter from the Chairman to the members. You will see that one of the offers includes £100,000 from John Still. I am not telling all supporters to do anything but I am urging those who are on the fence to join the protest. I've read it. As I sai...

Re: Still threatens to leave

I haven't managed to read all the posts but. 1. We have a right to protest about what is happening to our club. 2. As far as I'm aware the protest didn't start until the match ended and the players had been clapped. 3. If John Still had complained about the protest I am very unhappy. The timing of t...

Re: A dose of reality

Deeply saddened to hear the news about Norman Moss. He was a great club man who always had time to speak to people and a friendly word. I first met him when Leytonstone Ilford starting groundsharing at Walthamstow Avenue, and even through those merger talks he was always very fair and listened to ot...

Re: Chairmans reply to Consortium

Ok so you would do differently. I can understand that once being affected by something similar before. I'd put a lot of money though on you being a rarity. But the other part of the question you didn't answer- would you expect any other business to act differently? If you're answer is yes btw, you'...

Re: Chairmans reply to Consortium

Ok, so which laws is it ok to break for personal gain? The noise pollution was over 2 years and continued despite enforcement notices, according to the reports. I haven't actually said its ok, I've just said would you or any other business do any different? Unless you're the fabled Saint Alan of Da...

Re: Chairmans reply to Consortium

I was typing the post and going through google. There is nothing childish about what I posted. You need to stop trying to denigrate facts by referring to the people who post them as 'childish' or other such nonsense. I do not want Tamplin regardless of whether he keeps Thommo or not. I do not want ...

Re: Chairmans reply to Consortium

From the Chairman's letter have paid at least 312,500.00 already, surely if you are prepared to join in a consortium with someone, you should trust them. I cannot believe the naivety and ignorance here. As anyone who is in business knows, the first rule of any parternship or any contract in business...

Re: Consortium response to negotiations

Good letter. As mentioned elsewhere, (1) Tamplin wants overall control (2) Tamplin does not seem to want to pay any money up front But what also concerns me, is that the two people who are on the side of Tamplin are the current Chairman and Managing Director, who seem to be trying to rush this throu...

Re: Kane Ferdinand

Have East Thurrock United now got a sugar daddy? They seem to have made vast strides in a couple of years, managed promotion to National League South for this season and won 6-0!away at a club 350 miles away last Saturday. Their entire gate receipts for the season won't cover Ferdinands wages, let ...
