My thoughts:

1. Great to get some tv coverage, but not sure we should be denying ourselves income because of it. Could have knocked up a tent for this.

2. Tough one to do fairly but with enough time and notice but perhaps next time the club could have taken names / have out raffle tickets at 1.25pm in the crossbar at the last home game. The first 75 names drawn had first refusal. Maybe a learning for next time.

3. Another example of poor comms from the club, thought these days were behind us. Seems we need a ft general manager running the club to make sure small details like this are done properly.

4. Baffles me how some people can get so worked up over stuff like this. I would understand if they were regular cross bar goers but the people whinging probably hardly use the place.I suppose it's a mentality issue more than anything.

5. Be great to see the club rammed. Getting excited now looking forward to a week of anticipation!!

Derogatory no.

Critisism yes.

Contrary to popular belief the club does actually make many mistakes and misses many opportunities. Its not perfect up there.

    Why would anybody want to go to the crossbar 3 hours before a game anyway to be told when to talk when to cheer, where to stand and when to wave a scarf by some patronising arsehole from the BBC

    Why???

    Why should 75 people who've potentially only done 2 games this season get to represent the club on TV.

    Those who attend home games at the crossbar regularly have been invited those who havent won't have get over it.

      I must admit that was my own rationale in declining a place. Hope the guys and girls to whom it appeals enjoy it mind.

      Being above the age of 7 I must respectfully leave debate around raffle allocations and all of our respective super fan statuses to those with the energy for it. I will, however, be filling my membership for the Stu Nichols Fan Club. Forms in the Cross Bar Stu yeah?
