Swapping deckchairs on the Titanic....will they never f€¥√ng learn
Richard whiting is firesaleing(sic) the Bradford cup game sponsorship for £650 including a box and 12 CC final tickets......he's outta his depth.
Hughes needs to go.......sooner he leaves the deadwood at the top can't steal a wage any more
Edit: ive just read the job description. Basically, they want someone to sell matchday sponsorship, player sponsorship, corporate hospitality and shirt sponsorship for a team getting hammered at home in front of an ever decreasing audience.
Here's a thought.
Why not employ someone who can work to attract 5,000 fans to games, delivering 1.2 million a year in gate receipts rather than leveraging their old mates at Hull Trains to try and help them hit targets?
5,000 fans is attractive to sponsors......having your logo beside the coach company that transports the players to away games in Cumbria not so much.
Lobster has had his time. He can't see what's needed and as such i predict a sub 500 crowd for a league game this year.
We are a small club. We don't need a CEO. We don't need a commercial Manager. What we need is a general manager and a team of 4 or 5 keen and eager youngsters to coordinate 13 home games as events.....13 reasons to come to the game.....what we have is sticks in the ground and a begging letter from a useless owner.
It’s the good the club are doing this.We made the Comms manager (is that right) role redundant (I think) and appear to have been muddling through ever since. This will plug that gap if I understand correctly. Of course we are a quarter of the way though the season and it’s not joined up with the big re-launch but there we are.
Its good to see this, but it is not so much closing the stable door after the horse has bolted, but more closing the stable door after the Horse has bolted, travelled to dover, got on a ferry and was last seen somewhere in the vicinity of Budapest
So lobster will be going through CVs this week for a commerical manager and a social media bod.......both jobs closed on the 27th of Feb which was an insanely short campaign pointing to indecent haste being required.
Therefore I expect appointments with the minimal of fuss (interviews/reference checks) and new staff "relishing the challenge"......too soon to make an impact for York at home, but I'd expect Bradford at home to crack 2k or more with Bradford bringing half....
