Heard some businessman speaking on radio yesterday. Now his product wasn't exactly RL but he too was struggling in the leisure industry. His answer was to give his paying customers more for their money. He ran an indoor skiing place and now gives two hours for the price of one. He still has the same running costs but now because people are getting better VFM more are coming through the door. I know that the club has difficulty in forecasting how many people will come the turnstiles but at the end of the day money (of value for it) speaks volumes. How can we offer a reasonably priced season ticket (I presume we would prefer up front money rather than sporadic game by game money which may lessen with team performance) which gives the holder something special. I know that the touch down club has been mooted which gives additional perks but this again is asking for increased amounts rather than just enticing the sale of the ticket. I don't have answers but I really think we need to market the product and I really do think that the answer if value for money.

Dont know how much more we can all help. We've only got so much money between us and I think we've all put more than our fair share into the club.

If the club had been ran like a business in the first place instead of a bloody tuck shop we wouldn't be in this state. People talk about who put this in and that in but all the guys on the board own businesses or are respected in their field and yet we've got ourselves in this state. I for one want to know how and why?

Before someone says Arthur was bankrolling the club, my point is he shouldn't have been and these ideas of self sufficiency should have been put in place long ago to avoid all of this. Yes hindsight is a great thing but if the unthinkable happens people are going to want answers.

Hindsight won't help and neither will people wanting answers.......

We need a statement asap to reveal the actual position and then Trevor (there seems to be no-one else) must discuss alternatives if we go bust...........

I know times are difficult.. unemployment rising, inflation rising, value of pound decreasing.

All I can ask is that people put forward what they can, bury the grudges, egos wheres and what fors, the time for asking questions is gone, the time for action is now.

It was a flawed business model repeated at most sports clubs across the land. But it's history and if we don't act, so are we!

We are a victim of an insane sporting organisation/structure.

Any business, any property, any shares etc. Would anyone pump money in to any of those if they are not guarantees to progress
