I Find this Select 40 Invitation Disconcerting
Hopefully I spelt this right! http://www.ccmb.co.uk/images/smiley_icons/hehe.gif
Anyway, I like many others are loyal supporters who have invested in the club over many many years.
So my question is - should it not be at least a minimum that the Season Ticket Holders are consulted over views and feedback? Just to pick a "select" 40 who I have no idea who they are and don't speak for me get this crucial meeting with Tan's Senior Management. It just doesn't seem right. Simple vote for the peasants oiks :)

Re: I Find this Select 40 Invitation Disconcerting
The more worrysome thing, I think we have a lot of lambs and not enough bulls with fight following this club.
And one needs to wonder why some surrendered to the rebrand.

Are you saying that you feel it should be 'bulls with fight' representing CCFC fans at this meeting?

Re: I Find this Select 40 Invitation Disconcerting
Nige, I fully endorse your views, but surely a proper to the point survey to the masses of supporters could settle this once and for all? Where can I as a supporter over 25 years make my view? I can't as I'm not one of the "40" it stinks mate.

No, it should be all current Supporters views taken into account and not just 40. Just my opinion btw.

Re: I Find this Select 40 Invitation Disconcerting
Am I making this up? At one point I remember a lot of "the inner circle" claiming to be tired of having to representatives and the club planning on bringing in a system like the Jacks where there are regular meetings but not constant attendees. This was just before the rebrand mind.

I asked this before. Do you seriously expect someone at the club to wade through thousands of emails all with their petty moans?

Give the club some credit here. They're finally holding a meeting. They've also,gone out of their way to get a good cross-section, not just the usual faces. There are probably 10000-20000 City fans who think they have a case to attend but I think most fair-minded fans should acknowledge it is progress, the fans going are representative of most, if not all groups, and the feedback will inevitably be about one overwhelming topic.

Edit: For clarification the reason I worry is because no community deserves to lose it's club because of some tinpot fcking idiot on an ego trip - or for any other reason for that matter. And I did once love CCFC and all that is was so it's particularly the last club I want to see go to the wall

Re: I Find this Select 40 Invitation Disconcerting
A good Cross Section? Who are they then? The math does not equate to 40 of how many season ticket holders?
and the club are only holding the meeting because its hurting them in the wallet, lets be frank here, we know thats the root cause of the issue.

I'd like to air my view either in person or via feedback. As it stands I can't voice that feedback, these "40" haven't approached me to ask me my views, therefore they are not speaking on behalf of me.
Lets not get too "riled" its doesn't have to be a load of questions of does it. Get Real http://www.ccmb.co.uk/images/smiley_icons/Dsmile.gif

Give the club a chance on Thursday and save any venom for the club on Friday if the meeting is a fiasco.

9. If the club stayed red but was given a £20m war chest for players in this window would you buy a season ticket.

Re: I Find this Select 40 Invitation Disconcerting
Thanks for the response and the detail above. It's okay to fear what may happen next, but rest assured us normal folks outside of the special "40" will keep a close eye on proceedings.

Re: I Find this Select 40 Invitation Disconcerting
The only people who should be invited is season ticket holders after all they are the people who did not desert the club.

If you really need to matter, why don't you see if you can become one of those households that measure TV viewing figures? I'm sure you don't watch every show on TV but believe it or not you are counted in the demographic http://www.ccmb.co.uk/images/smiley_icons/thumbup.gif

The Trust sent out an e-mail yesterday asking for feedback from their members as to how they should approach the meeting, so at least a small cross section of fans have had a chance to get their views represented - don't suppose you're a member though, your contributions in this thread read like one of the many who just sit on the sidelines moaning about things.

You could have had a say if you belonged to the truly democratic supporters' organisation - unless you belong to the Trust, you are, to all intents and purposes sitting on the sidelines because there's no one else who is going to represent you. The club are never going to survey all of the "paying customers" like you on the rebrand, probably because they would almost certainly get a result they wouldn't want to hear and if they aren't going to do that, what gives you the right to be invited over the thousands like you?

In my opinion the club should liaise directly only with the Trust. The Trust will then canvass the members for their thoughts, as they are doing now. These thoughts can then be put to the club by the elected representatives of the Trust. At least this way we will avoid the arguments that we have seen since Monday.
