Not directly related to the squad, but of the few of us who are left, parking really is a big deal. Without being able to park nearby, it really prevents us from going to matches, and we are not the only ones... So if the discussion is how to get fans back to wimbledon next year, some parking options are really needed here.

Not sure there is an answer to that Crash. 4 car parks in Wimbledon Town centre which I think charges from £1 to £1.50 an hour or something like that & a black cab rank at the station. Or the single deck 493 runs every 20 mins unless more frequently during sporting events. There are a few schools in the area but don't have big playgrounds from what I can remember.

Parking is fair enough, but I think this is a chance to ask more deeper questions, about how the club see the future, will they look to build bridges with fans etc.

Say hi to Paddock for me.....

Quote: wire-quin "Would be good to find out the plans for the playing squad next season. PT/FT. Have we started the ball rolling re next years squad. Likewise the coaching team'"

Yep....and hopefully you'll get a straight answer.
If anyone fancies it, could they ask the club if there is a tangible fan for self sufficiency through fan and sponsor income or if we're going to continue to rely on Hughes and his moods?
Also. What are the targets in terms of attendances next year and what are the consequences of failure (or rewards for success)

Didn't get the invite but happy for my thoughts to be fed into discussion.

I have had a season ticket since SL2 (apart from a year at The Hive) but I didn't renew this season for a few reasons (i) uncertainly over where games would be played (ii) unjustified price rises (iii) uncompetitive squad and (iv) general poor running of the club.

While I have not been to Trailfinders this season, I have enjoyed watching the academy and women's team play at Richmond.

I believe RL can generate a sustainable crowd in London provided the team is competitive, the match day experience is good and the game is well promoted. Unfortunately these things have not been in place for several years. The team that got promoted to SL achieved way more than the sum of its parts (which was great) but the club failed to build on that and has now lost that successful coaching team.

While we have done well to bring players through the academy system to the first team, unless we can retain the better players for longer this is not providing the basis of a competitive side.

The club needs to create and share a medium term plan (3 to 5 years) and also take more responsibility to help shape the long term future of the game in London as a whole.

I don't know why the club saw another ground move as a priority this season. Particularly when this meant different facilities being required for training, academy etc. Perhaps if the club was to explain its plans and consult supporters this would be more apparent. From the outside, it seems this should have been a season for consolidation and re-establishing core support post lockdown.

We are totally reliant on David Hughes support. How long can this continue, it seems like everything is increasingly done on the cheap ? My concern is he does little to secure the future of the club beyond his tenure but again the club do not communicate any plans so it is difficult to know the direction we are headed.

There are plenty of other things to do in London, the club needs to do much more to be a success.

I can not understand when we have 2 supporters clubs why they are not being used to inform the club about the problems they have keeping supporters. I was under the inpression that the BOSG was setup to keep the club updated with supporters thoughts on how the club was being run.

As I asked earlier...are there targets with rewards and consequences at the club?

The OFFICIAL Supporters group, AKA Monkeyboy's Clique seems established as to only defer away from the LBSA, which as I understand it, actually provides a revenue stream for the club in the shape of paid shirt sponsorship of the academy. I'd also point out that the LSBA has a LARGER presence on Social Media platforms Twitter & Facebook, whilst their INSTAGRAM page is a series of photo's of the same half dozen or so people......although I did Like a post from a while back claiming that "The Team" are busy working on the next BOSG newsletter 2.5830078125:5
