Again, final try; I'm saying if we did well ( not do you think we'll do well) would you crawl back? I'm sure there'd be many Devachatters on here who'd go quiet if Macca did well next season. macca do well next season, 13 points from 60,no home win this year,15 defeats in 20,this bloke ain't a manager and never will be, the league will be tougher next season with money sides like fylde possibly ebbsfleet , he will take us down for sure,if there was another 2 weeks of this season to go we would go Not going to answer his question then?

Would love JM to do well, but it doesn't seem to be likely if this season is anything to go by. I think first things first, employ Tom Shaw as a player coach and bin Big Chris. It's not worked out with his media commitments and Shaw is a respectable leader figure for us this season, one of very few.
We seriously need to sign the right players, proven conference players, big competitive lads. I'm all for looking into lower leagues at a few, but you need that balance of players that know the league. Or we may end up with a team of Marsh/O'briens.
I think JM will get 10 games next season to prove his worth, trouble is if we've signed the same garbage plus more, lose our better players, it'll be tough for anyone coming in. There are some big teams joining us with backers next season and without sounding like a heavy rain cloud, we do look like being a bottom 6 club looking at the teams in this league next year, so signing the right players is vital.

It's a bit of a daft question, there's no chance of us doing well under mccarthy, to be honest I don't think I'd bother, will have a crack at completing the 92 grounds next season and the new grounds that come up into the conference

£10 tickets are a good idea. However the way the club have gone about it is awful. We're either preaching to the converted through the mailing list, or we're hoping ST holders might JUST have a mate interested in attending the last game of a disappointing season.
What about the floating fan via advertisements to the public?
Granted, this might not be that type of game to try to encourage floating fans to, but I see no other initiatives by Mark Maguire.
He's taking us for a ride. Talks the talk, but doesn't provide the goods for this football club. He may understand how a football club works as a business, but hasn't really shown any understanding of our fan owned, community ethos business model.

Why do people with access to a computer get priority over everybody else .For example ,a supporter goes to most home games up to the new year and after witnessing the debacle on new years day decides enough is enough (you couldnt blame them ,it was terrible) . What about pensioners or people who cant afford a computer ? PS the football club are not the only body guilty of this .Any government department now expects you to do their job for them ,and utility companies the same .CFC as a fans owned club (supposedly) should be different

They are desperately trying to keep season ticket holders onside . Given Jon McCarthys attitude to the fans it would serve the club right if season ticket sales plummeted

The club have tried to bring in some floating fans- E:g ST holders mate for a fiver and I am ok with that in principle, you will of course get people who know ST holders and go the game anyway get in for a fiver, but some you win , some you lose.
Its the other part of this that really got me pissed off, as has been mentioned those who go the game most weeks, but buy direct from the shop get to pay full whack, whereas someone who hardly goes the game but has bought a scarf online at Christmas get the discount.
This is what the club should have done, kept the first part as above and let everyone else in for a tenner, kids under 18 for free. Any ST holders renewing their ST next season would get a ten pound discount off the early bird price for missing this offer.
If you want to collect marketing details such as emails, home addresses etc, then have a load of competition forms at the turnstiles where people need to fill this in to win a ST for next season, a legends lounge pack and a home shirt as the three prizes in the draw.

So I'm not a season ticket holder this or last year and haven't purchased anything online but pay at the turnstiles everything I go regularly and I'm rewarded with full priced admission yet if Joe blogs who bought a pin badge on line will be rewarded with reduced admission- oh dear me - still I will be there Don't worry I've had a season ticket for years, brought crap in the club shop, put in squadbuilder, Steve Burr's nightmare and not had an e-mail either. However, when you have people like Tony Allen in charge you expect totally crap customer service whilst the club expect the same people to give religiously!
