New midfielder & why don't the club look after fans?

[Westgate Wanderer]

Any chance you can edit the name of this site Keith? My suggestion would be shrimpsmoaners!!

[mrpotatohead]

Better to have feedback, however bad, than silence and a shrinking customer base, these people that are complaining are getting a shit deal and have every right to voice their opinions.

[Westgate Wanderer]

All for free speech, but sometimes the record needs changing. Perhaps when we get our new owner(s) more might be forthcoming re info from the club. IMO if we had 20 more points this forum might actually be more focused on the football! But i fear even if we won 6-0, all got free pies, something still wouldn't be right! It was a tongue-in-cheek remark we just need to lighten up a bit ffs

[mrpotatohead]

Well I will lighten the mood, by telling you something, not a wind up, a 100% fact.....I know who the next club chairman is going to be!

Won the lottery Mr P?

[mrpotatohead]

Not me.

Just a question for whoever edited the thread title:

Why is the question 'why don't (should be doesn't, BTW) the club look after fans' off topic? It's about Morecambe football club and its fans (i.e. us).

I don't know who edited it previously, but I've re-edited it now. There's only so many characters that can go in the title. I hope you are happy with it now?

It's still 'off topic' and 'do' instead of 'does', so not much changed. And to WW, I'm not moaning, just making a perfectly valid comment.

This thread is losing its way.

What sort of crowds do we get for reserve matches? I am a season ticket holder and seen hundreds of home games down the years but only ever seen one reserve match (when Tevez came to town). Without telling people the games are on how on earth are people supposed to know about them?

Last one I went to, about 25.

[Wild Bill]

That low?? Surely worth a bit of promotion then? Do season ticket holders get in free?

[Christies Child]

I would have thought that the scoreboard could advertise the games. Maybe one thing that the proposed fans group could make recommendations to the Board during their discussions.

Believe it when I see it , this fans thing will never happen

That's negativity on a large scale.

If you go to the meeting with that attitude then you might as well stay away and let those who want to contribute get on with it.....

[mrpotatohead]

I was joking neil ,i obviously know it is going to happen.

So did you put your name forward Neil for the fan/director committee , and if so have you had any communication from the club about setting it up

[Christies Child]

Yes I did put my name forward and was told of the first meeting by a fellow fan. I suppose it was too much to expect being told by the club of the inaugural meeting. Not sure what to expect but it's up to all of us to make it work. If it means that there is a communication gateway between the fans and the Board then excellent. But if it becomes nothing more than a means for supporters to air their grievances then there seems little point. It has to be constructive in my opinion for it to work.

Here's hoping..,,

I too put my name forward but heard nothing since , i thought it was because there might be a change in the boardroom .

[mrpotatohead]

You were told by Director Mike Hinchcliffe in person Neil, you may have been told by another fan who Mike had also told a few minutes earlier, but don't bang on about negativity in one breath then moan in the next breath, I was actually stood next to the Director, Mr Hinchcliffe, when he invited you to the meeting.

[Christies Child]

I hadn't a clue that the guy who told me was a Director. To me he was just another fan
