Maybe it would be a good idea to arrive as late as possible at the car boot sale & park your car for a £1 & then go & sit in your seat in the stadium or have a drink in the bar.'"
Funnily enough, when going on Dons buses to away games in the past, they've wanted to charge me for car boot parking! Although on explaining they allowed me to park for nothing.
With all matters financial, I suppose the club have to weigh up how much they get from parking fees and how much they lose from people not attending matches because of them, although I'd hope a modicum of fair play may also come into the equation.
With most people having to get two buses to get to the stadium, you'd have thought the club would be sympathetic to our cause, although I seem to recall the initial idea when the stadium was built was that only cars with three or more occupants would be allowed to park. This was based on a [igreen[/i idea if I remember rightly.

| Having read some of the question & answer threads on other club sites I feel the E Mail approach is the best bet.

You heard incorrectly apart from the first part.

Well considering that the Rovers wanted us to have our say quite recently IIRC let's not bother.
Better to continue in the same old way.

| I was walking about work today and saw at least 3 poster for the Knights up coming matches around the place.......considering two of the current Don's first team squad work in the same building as me you'd have thought the club would have something up (To be fair Stu's corridor/classroom area is very heavily covered in RL material).
Before anyone suggests I put them up I just don't get the time or opportunity to do it, It's rare I escape the confines of the classroom.

| Car parking is expensive and most places charge £2.
Why do we have to have 2 staff collecting car parking money, surely one person can take money and give you a ticket.
I also think that season ticket holders should get parking for free or either a £1 on showing the season ticket.
I thought that DM came up with a good idea car parking and programme for £3, i would have thought that if the parking was more reasonable then more people would park in the car park.
I agree in sending an email to the club and moving these posts onto a new thread and making it sticky.

| keighley will be a tough game against a side that will fancy being in the 9 at the end of the season. Defence will need to be strong again.

| The reason why I think it's better to have a discussion on here before forwarding ideas to the club is that a collective discussion with a consensus of views in favour of something may help the club to see the merit in something.
People on here often make good points that I had overlooked when thinking of something potentially half-decent. Several heads are better than one, and I think putting ideas to the club is a positive and constructive thing we can do well as a group.

| Fans have had chances to meet as a group & discuss ideas at trust & supporters club meetings.But it was the same (few) faces that turned up . We also had chance at a meet the new owners evening which was quite well attended.
We need some new young dynamic supporter or supporters to set up a group not such as myself who have done their best in the past and to some extent failed in setting up a successful supporters group .
We have to move forward , the club is .

| Someone needs to contact the club and ask them this question ...
If we set up a sensible, and I mean sensible, thread will someone at the club/Rovers read it and pass the concerns/praise on to the decision makers and then report back?
Only then is there any point.

OK ... you got an handy e-mail that you know works?
Also I need to know first from a mod that they agree to set up such a sticky thread.
