Vending machines sound good, but could they store enough stock to not run out early?
Seeing that the food kiosks run out regularly why would anyone be suprised if a vending machine did. Now a vending machine having stock in it 5 minutes after the half time whistle, that would surprise people. |

This may have been spoken about on page 4 but if you are talking about food and drink why not have people walking about and selling it during games like they do in American sports?

Would be happy if they had those blokes with the barrels on their backs selling pints. Its a damn disgrace that it doesn't happen.

They could carry bottles and have a few of them. Was thinking more food really.

why don't you just stand up to see past the people waiting in the aisles ? I find that standing is far better to encourage singing etc. than sitting on your backside. Because I respect others around & would not want to impede there view. I dont mind standing when I go on a rare away outing as everyone is. If the stewards do they job are paid to do end of problem really. Why not get them to move in the doorways? That's what people seem to do around us. If the stewards and police did anything more than they do now then we won't be allowed to shout at the football and sing. We'll all be sat eating popcorn and clapping. If they want to watch the game stay in the seats, if they want to leave early go but dont fanny arounnd standing around blocking mine & other peoples view. |

It would be great if the club could continue the reduced prices (like 5 quid) for kids at cup matches. They are the future of the club after all.

Not sure if it's been mentioned as I've only read the first 6 pages but anyway, I'll make my point. What about a club membership scheme other than just seaosn ticket holders? As far as I'm aware, no such scheme exists. I had a season ticket until recently and quite a lot of loyalty on it for away games in that I got allocated a ticket for almost every game no problem. When I couldn't afford to renew my ticket, I phoned the box office to see if my loyalty would still be kept on the computer system so that I could still go to the odd away game. They told me, in no uncertain terms, that without a season ticket, my attendance record would be totally wiped and I'd have to start again int he future.
This basically means that someone who has had a seaosn ticket for 1 year has more chance of getting, say, an FA Cup final ticket (if we get there) than myself, when I've travelled all over the place for the last 10 years. I'm not saying I have a divine right to tickets, I jus think this is a bit harsh.
A simple membership system would work well, so that fans without season tickets ca have their attendance records stored on file, home and away games, so they don't miss out on the big games (or have a fairer chance of a ticket).
Anyone else in this situation or agree with me?

Think we have that mate. I used to be on it. "Club United" was 20 quid a year and you got priority tickets after ST holders before a gen sale. |

Don't know if I'm too late, and its only a very small thing but I just had a thought: on the official website, on the player profiles bit, they should have a questionnaire filled out by the players - favourite film, book, band, food, place, interests outside of football, funniest teammate etc etc. Loads of other sports clubs websites have this sort of thing. I think we used to have something similar in the programmes but I haven't bought one of them for years - maybe they still do it? Anyway it just creates a bit of a link between them and us, gives us something to identify with, epsecially for the kids. Just a small idea and noboy's probably bothered about it but I think it's be a nice touch. It'd only take 10 minutes for someone to print ou tsome questions, 5 mins for them to fill it in and a half hour for someone to type then up onto the site.

Can scores still be read out as we can't see the boards as we sit behind them in the east stand & my WAP is always uber slow at HT on a matchday. |

There is still a club membership scheme, £20 a year, free entry into home reserve games, preference over the general public for away games and cup games. You will get your points just like a season ticket holder for games. Phone the club and get them to send you a form to fill in. |

Keep things coming in, by all means. I was disappointed with the turn-out in all honesty so the more the better.
Taking me ages to gather everything together at the minute (haven't had PC access for over 2 weeks and been moving to Hull) but once I'm settled in and sorted things should speed right up.
The whole point of this is to keep it as an open loop when someone has an idea/suggestion, things can always be sent in on a continual basis as well as in one big chunk.
