Can I have a picture with Ronnie the Rhino too?

Will he be there?

Consultation evening, are you the one who's going to be consulted?

Nope i'm going to see what GH has planned for the new development of the SS.

What is there to consult about?

I seem to remember how the supporters were consulted over the choice of suffix to compliment the Leeds name in 96/7 and how the supporter's choice was subsequently and almost immediately ignored.

I've been waiting for someone to bring this up.
I think you confuse consultation with listen to & act upon.
As you know organisations regularly consult with their customers/clients but do not always or rarely take any notice of what they say.
Consult = make them think they have input, but still do what we always intended to do.
Local government is expert in this & management in any dealings with Trades Unions &/or employees.

Lets hope security is tight, who knows what will happen if you have access to Gary H.

Out of interest, what was the supporters' choice? I was abroad during that period. I'd vaguely supposed that there'd been some sort of vote and that "rhinos" had, somewhat bafflingly, been the popular choice.

The YEP conducted an 'official' poll (at the request of the new Leeds CEO IIRC) and from the list of half a dozen or thereabouts possibilities the one that polled the most votes was 'Loiner'

Mr Hetherington declared that was a rubbish choice by the supporter base, completely unmarketable and gave us the name which probably came about 4th in the poll.

(As you can no doubt tell, I only have my vague recollections to refer to here as my scrapbooking days ended with the advent of SL and I was unable to start a digital version until the YEP got themselves up and running online around four years later.)

Leeds Tykes I voted for, if only years later I'd known they had stored my submission.

I always knew you were the submissive type.

Hark at her.

I've had an invite and as yet undecided. I'm a Western Terrace and tend to get quite a bit of a abuse from the SS wonder why that is??

Not sure if a 'WT' can comment on the facilities over on the SS......... but when they're on it, it's fantastic! I just hope that noise and roar from the SS isn't lost when it's replaced.
