Why has the second and third kit not been released or shown yet? We were advised last season that it wouldn’t happen again but here we are

Good god

The issues last year were due to taking pre orders and then the kit not being ready for 6-8 weeks

This year the kit was announced with a sale date and the kit then went on sale on that date.

The away Kit is probably being held back to maximise sales on the home kit.

Historically the third kit has been announced November time thus cashing in on the Christmas market (unless of course the team need to play in it earlier due to a clash of colours)

The third kit was released earlier last year due to the issues with the home kit and an attempt to maximise income.

Not sure how not showing us or releasing the away or third kit yet has any resemblance to last year.

Interested to know if they are able to share any information on Viveash’s departure. They seemed to have sidestepped the issue. Also have any decisions been made with regard to the Asst Manager position? Think they received many applications from great candidates.

Why is the supporters forum not being utilised to get feedback/constructive criticism on club plans such as family zone changes, disabled fans Changes etc ?

If, as Viveash suggested, it is with solicitors i doubt they can say anything

Andy Turner said on X that he tried to ask about this but was told by the club that they will not be commenting on AV at all. Draw your own conclusions.

Is there anything they can do about getting people in quicker when ‘paper’ ticket sales are high? Last season we had major issues getting people in for kick off against Middlesbrough (first home game, many people’s ST cards hadn’t arrived), Oxford and Sheff Wed (both cup games).

Appreciate a lot of it is down to user error but is there any improvement i.e. tickets in an Apple Wallet that could slicker things?

Second this, especially re FZ - why not engage audience - give us options like choosing to pay full price with child thus excluding restrictions on attendance for example.

just engage your audience.

Because most fans who attend couldn’t run a bath let alone a scale business is probably the truth.

These forums are tokenistic at almost every club.

Why did block 15 fans not move to near the away fans as they seemed to want.....

We have been through this many times, people all have individual reasons.

We didn't move as my friend didn't want to give up his dead dads seat, if that's not okay with then frankly you can fuck off.

Would the club consider pop up shops for kit releases in future? I think a lot would sell that way as impulse purchases. As an example, I really like the new home shirt but don't go to the Arena except on match days or into town. Now obviously I could go to either but I work full time and have other commitments to manage. If there had been a pop up shop selling shirts outside the big Tesco at Walsgrave say, I'd be wearing a shirt by now and the club would have my money.

Maybe an online purchase is the answer? The worst that can happen is that you’ll need to take it back if it’s not right.

Sympathetic as i am to your personal choice i was talking generally from comments i read. Feel free to go OTT and resort to swearing though. Cant deviate from your normal level of debating can we?

Has the roof been fixed above the disabled bays in Blocks 21/22 or are the wheelchair users expected to spend another season seated in a flooded bay?

Did the club have any input into the post match road closures ?
How do they think people get to and from the games,other than driving ,there are very few options.
The road closures will cause awful traffic problems and I can nt see how the parties do not understand this. What is the decision based on ?

Will Family Zone resell tickets be at a cheaper cost or are they going to remain an extortionate cost for children like in the rest of the stadium?

Obligatory “can we have a fan zone in the exhibition hall?”

The more we get in attendance, the more sense it starts to make. There are currently rather limited options of places to go for a drink if you’ve got a child with you.

You have fans who run supporters groups though and it’s a range of ages & genders

Won't happen unfortunately. There's stuff on most weekends in the halls.

Agree with this, with the sponsor being sorted and the home kit selling in droves it feels like the staggered approach is an intentional move this year. If Monzo's in place for longer hopefully the whole thing starts a bit earlier next year

You'll get the answer to that if it pisses down with rain at home to Oxford. 🌧️🌧️🌧️

That's one of the most ridiculous things I've ever heard.

If you can't get to the CBS a little earlier to get a shirt on matchday, or into town at any point ever, then order online you simpleton
