We did not look good again untill the last 5 games when we had brought 3 new fit players in and we could put 17 fit players on the field. Thought the club would have learnt from this'"
Toms had 2 operations on his knees-should we not sign him?
Every player plays a,little bit injured- Chris green was injured against London but still played -should we not have played him
I could point out that bill, Reece, Dave, T have all started new deals this off season, you don’t think they’ve signed for less do you? Sometimes retention is more important then recruitment.
I’d love to know what more can be done to fit 32 players into a 1.8 million budget?
As for the assertion, that big signings mean more fans, in my 6 year experience this has never happened. The only thing that has generated fans has been hard work at a community level getting into schools etc etc. Even winning doesn’t do it. As soon as you lose they disappear.

What effect would moving to a "regular" Friday evening do to attendance numbers
With most clubs now playing on Fridays, would this help ?
I know that the drive accross the M62 is unpredictable at best but, the changes from Friday to Sunday to Thursday must have a negative effect and I'm told that for other clubs, Fridays are better for the corporate side.

Regular Fridays are a non-starter for me.

| and for others it's Thursday or Saturday oh and Sunday also. I do believe we all understand that you can't have a day that suit's all.
I do my best to work around the varied match days but the short notice changes to accommodate Sky are annoying but they pay money for the privilege
Who's told you Friday is a better night for corporate?

I don't know but it seems logical to me, straight from work then weekend free but I may be wrong having never been to one.

| Fishermanscrap You make it sound like a chore to be got out of the way so you can enjoy your leisure time.
Many factors determine the optimum time for an individual to take part in leisure time, family, friends, work, single parent, carer, child sharing, so many things have an impact.
If you opt for the same regular game time you will allienate a whole section of supporters for the season, unless they can get to the Thursday Sky game, when the club gets a go.
One size does not fit all.

| Not a cat in hells chance of seeing any thur/fri night away games but I believe it’s sky who pulls those strings, so not much we can do about those .Gone are the days when everyone took a Sunday off , it’s just another day to a lot of firms but still prefer them myself but I’m lucky as I only work mon- fri, not so simple if it’s part of your contract

| I didn't ask you, that question was for the person that posted it to answer.
Your response does not make it clear that what you have written is in answer to the last part of my post and as you did not make the comment how can you answer.

| ok I'm getting bored now.
The thread was about the new signing and the last post on that has long past.
I was going to leave it running but as we've gone back to our nursery level answers I'll lock it.
Feel free to start a new one if you want to talk about revamped Belle Vue or game days.
