I nominate Neshead..he's surprisingly thoughtful and articulate for a Queensbury skinhead. About time CA was invited. For all the banter that gets posted on here, it is by far the best and most probing discussion out there.

I'm with Hoochy. I don't give a shit about no hot water in the bogs, wooden toilet seats and piss weak lager. I want to know why we're consistently amateur in our approach to everything from the ticket office, to fans, to players and to owners. This shit ain't gonna be the hot topics at these borefest meetings. I think the catering is something that should be brought up at these meetings, tbh. Having a pint or 2 and a pie is part of the match day ritual for a lot of fans, me included. And I really can’t remember the last time I bought anything from City on a match day...And it’s probably one of the reasons I don’t have the bug of going to watch City anymore, going to the match is boring in all honesty...Fuck the hot water though, I don’t think that’s ever crossed my mind till now.

Give me some serious questions to ask, and I'll go.

Give me some serious questions to ask, and I'll go. The trouble is you’ll be sitting with people like Ryan Sparks and, no disrespect to the lad, he won’t be able to answer the sort of questions we’d ask. Bigrod’s hot water queries are a world away from root causes of perennial underachievement and long term strategy questions. I’m not sure it’d be worth it for either party.

Bigrod’s hot water queries are a world away from root causes of perennial underachievement and long term strategy questions. I’m not sure it’d be worth it for either party. It's a start though surely. Showing the club that some fans have ideas above how best to show our appreciation for still having a club to support is what we want to highlight. The things we're asking aren't being asked to make the club look stupid or anything like that. They're questions and thoughts on how to make the club better. They've clearly said TCA are invited expecting no one to show up, so that they can say look we made you the offer. Well lets show up and ask questions that fans actually want to ask, long term strategic questions, ideas on how to improve the running of club, some at very little expense really.. There's no point saying they lack ambition and are run poorly then when giving the opportunity to put forward suggestions (that yes they should probably know) saying nah, they won't listen anyway.

All fair enough but I’m not suggesting they won’t listen, rather that we’ll be talking to people who can’t answer. If you’re prepared to go and ask then we can do it if you like.

I'm always getting suckered into shite like this. Like when I let slip at my lads football club that I had coaching badges and next thing I know I'm running the sodding under 12s C team.

I'd dress up as a 1970's IRA man at a funeral. Leather box jacket, dark glasses and a beret. Need an air of mystery about TCA.

I want to know why we're consistently amateur in our approach to everything from the ticket office, to fans, to players and to owners. This shit ain't gonna be the hot topics at these borefest meetings. I think the catering is something that should be brought up at these meetings, tbh. Having a pint or 2 and a pie is part of the match day ritual for a lot of fans, me included. And I really can’t remember the last time I bought anything from City on a match day...And it’s probably one of the reasons I don’t have the bug of going to watch City anymore, going to the match is boring in all honesty...Fuck the hot water though, I don’t think that’s ever crossed my mind till now. They should install McDonalds style touch screens

Maybe tweet saying we have strategic long term questions that would need people high up in the club to answer. Never know it might work

They should install McDonalds style touch screens Some of the cunts at VP are confused by decimal currency so touch screens are out. Also you’d have to touch them after some of the dirty fuckers have touched them without washing their hands after having a shit because the water tanks are bust. You haven’t thought this through properly have you?
