Frankb here having to use another name because I was locked out when the site kept crashing a week last Sunday evening.

Before this goes to a postal vote (which would cost LISA over £200 of funds raised by supporters to fund players contracts incidentally)I want to know why this is so important.

I cannot see the point of a LISA member attending a Board meeting where effectively all they would be doing is listening to the Board members whose opinions matter.

Any points raised by fans be they LISA members or not can quite easily dealt with at the Fans Forums' on here' at LISA meetings or dare I say it by ringing the club.

Lets be frank there is absolutely no benefit to the club or LISA by a member sitting in on a Board meeting. And the idea of having a postal ballot seems a scandalous way of using LISA monies.

Now anyone who wants to be a candidate should explain how it would improve the club and then if I agreed with that I might change my opinion.

I have no agenda I just think this is a pointless excercise with absolutely no plus points.

Easy for you to say

I agree with Frank over the board member but disagree over the ballot. I agree with Leigh 24.7 that the price of the postal ballot would be better than loosing say four members. I'm affaid no one has given a proper reason why things have to change from the fantastic progress has been made between all parties upto now.

There isn't one

I had a good read of the ' Iris ' last night , I wonder if I can blag the RFL for a dozen Canon XF 100 ,s ?

Goodluck. I have left a message with a bloke who used to organise stuff like you were talking about at Granada but he hasn't rung me back yet. He will though.

I had a chat with the guy at Sheffield , very interesting , very similar idea's , except he knows what he's talking about

I'll have a couple of those Canon's if they are going spare

Re a postal vote or not, without one how do you reach every LISA member - for surely it's one of ghe most important LISA issues to have arisen -

TBH Steve I haven't a clue what you and Tony are going on about It was just a natural reaction to the word [sizeFREE[/size

why not have all the members of LISA vote at the next meeting. Each candidate says why they want to be elected and vote by placing the name of your favourite in a box.

Trouble being Ste is that of the 600 members only around 25 and sometimes a lot less actually attend meetings and this should be an important issue, the first question (IMO) that should be asked is DO LISA ACTUALLY WANT BOARD REPRESENTATION?

I still have seen no poster on here who can tell us why this issue is important and how it would benefit the club or LISA.

Yet we still have people who want to go to the expense of a postal ballot for something which helps no one.
