You missed a bit.

Quote: Adeybull "Incidentally, I have volunteered to help the club check the beer is OK before each home match, checking a pint in each bar in turn...its a job but I guess someone needs to do it...'"


I'm afraid an appointment has already been made for that position...

What a load of bollox that is. Total cobblers.

NEW PENS?????? You think they are made of money???? That would pay for a pair of socks for an academy lad. What CAN you have been thinking? They go "borrow" all their pens from Argos, silly! icon_wink.gif

Communication is surely a two-way thing, so in addition to this I demand the right to veto any decision they make.

Quote: Bullseye "Are you planning to ask that polemic yourself Mick?'"


I'll be asking both these questions yes, one on behalf of a forum member who can't make it. Why what's wrong with them>?

After a third consecutive dismal year in which the onfield performances have no pride, passion, motivation or heart, and given that the key to a successful business is attracting and keeping customers through offering them a product that they want, enjoy and embrace, what are you going to do to attract the disconcerted supporters who are currently season pass holders but are unlikely to renew next year?

If it is a fact that the cost of staying at Odsal Stadium is not financially viable and we must leave, can you confirm or state where the Bradford Bulls are likely to be based and how you will market that change to the fans on this occassion?

If the club are short of pens then I can go get some from the Bookies?

Ryan gave a cracking example yesterday

Have they actually asked for this anywhere? Are they asking for this?

+1 here and it's something I was thinking of the other day, if the club buy the paint and give me a brush I'll paint all the terracing and barriers in the off season.

I can get the red (Labrokes) yellow (Tote) and the black ones from (Gala Casino).

Have them in a nice try in the office and job is a good one.

That highlighted bit is more statement than a question. The rest is more answerable. I do so wish folk would try and help the club answer by not trying to first force them to respond to subjective statements - just ask them the simple question without embellishment!

Although if someone has not written in with that question (I didn't, cos I assumed everyone else would) I'd be very surprised.

A friend help me narrow it down from this

After another dismal year in which the onfield performances have matched the players, which have once again showed no pride, no passion, no motivation and no heart, just what are you going to do to change the mind of the disconcerted supporters who are currently season pass holders but are not going to renew next year.

Because as with any business, the key to success is attracting and keeping customers through offering them a product that they want and love (Watching a side giving 100% effort and showing the pride, passion and the heart and motivation of wanting to put on and wear the famous red, amber and black).

Instead of Ryan Ducket coming out in the T&A and blaming the customers for no longer having an interest in the product (the stay away supporters), do you not feel that you should be trying to offer your customers incentives to watch?

If you are then what incentives are you offering fans to return or renew for next season?

If someone asks it I'll just ask the last one instead.
