I currantly pay £62.00 a year also pay £60 a month for boost the budget, Plus £10 a month bonus ball, My biggest gripe is boost the budget which will not be renewed as i never have heard anything from anybody regarding the payment or the rewards, This is the 2nd year not heard or received anything That might be because £60 a month isn't one of the selected tier options so you might fall in to a bit of a black hole there. Same happens to me as I decide to be awkward and do something similar!
As Jim said, club will sort something out, definitely should for a contribution like that.

Check your spam mate, mine was in there. Thats impressive support by the way

Difficult to know with the below par sound quality. Trying to attract more CFU members, possible increase in yearly sub. Brackley fiasco, for which the police accepted no responsibility, has cost at least £45-£50k in fixed costs (fines, implementation of new procedures, more stewards, additional police, etc.) not including possible lost revenue from sold out Harry Mac, no cash payments, lost sponsors. All a loss from the playing budget. Fan Zone proposal behind Harry Mac. Metal railings in East and West stands to be installed on stairs. Disabled access area proving a real headache (both planning wise and financially) and request for anyone with experience in such things to contact the Board. Glad this has been mentioned hopefully we make it £5 a month minimum the extra funds would really help us especially with BTB on the decline this season and potentially next. Why is Boost The Budget declining? Was this mentioned at the CFU meeting? Mine is a rolling direct debit and I thought a large amount of them were? Would like to see it properly pushed though over the next few months, maybe post season tickets. It doesn't seem to get the publicity it should.

Maybe not the place to ask but I don’t seem to have much joy with any of the cityfansunited email addresses, but the website treats me as a non member so I can’t ever watch these even though I’m paid up and have the email receipt to confirm I am. Any idea on who is best to contact?

I’ve got £25 a month going on various things. £5 for the lottery (never won a bean in 14 years and no idea if my number still gets entered) and 2 x £10 on go cardless. Really need to get a grip on what it is all for.

Really need to get a grip on what it is all for. I always see us post the seals lottery winners on twitter but not sure I ever see us promoting how people can join. Not much on the website about it either unless I've missed it. I think it's people that have had it set up for years like yourself. Could surely push this more, if the prize pot was bigger more people would want to join and it could hopefully snowball and be an easy win for the club

I want to start playing it too.

Forgotten all about that.

And me. Same with the 50/50, I got asked at the bar at Tamworth if I wanted tickets (was never able to find the results anywhere) but I don’t think I’ve ever been offered 50/50 tickets at home.

There's usually somebody standing outside the club shop selling 50/50 tickets.

Best question of the night for me was from a lady who said:
“how come I went to Canada in Feb and we were in 3rd place in the league and I come home and we are in 11th place”
I wish she would have followed up with two more questions:
1) “why didn’t you bring someone in on loan from a forwards point of view to more or less assure promotion”
2) “Does this show that we don’t really want promotion to the National League”

They appoint a manager to select, manage and employ the tactics they believe will succeed.

I do hope someone can confirm that we are looking after supporters who are contributing financially in various ways Particularly now we have got much better PR wise . I am not saying that these supporters need to Be treated as “elite” but someone from the club even a signed greeting card from C Mc and a some of the players would be fairly easy to sort and cost affective?

We did online 50/50 tickets during Covid to raise funds for our academy. Absolute no-brainer to do it for our home games, etc.

As with everything I guess time is the issue, although increasing sales of Seals Lottery and introducing a way to play the 50/50 online would go a good way into helping pay a new commercial persons wages.
Seals Lottery currently earns the club £1041.75 per month (assuming its a 50/50 split), and the 50/50 roughly £250 per game. Doubling these should be achievable for someone motivated enough, especially with the social media reach the club has now?
