Like what?
I got the feeling that they are doing everything on a thin and scabby shoestring. Stuff is being transported to the Ricoh in staff's cars on matchday and they seem to be unable to even fork out for a rental van. It was mentioned (and this has been mentioned several times before to club) that if they are short of manpower they should ask the fans. The Trust has said it could ask its members among who there are sure to be some who would volunteer to help out on match days, provide a van etc but for some reason the club always seems reluctant to do this.
Scope is in charge of the corporates isn't he? I would expect his to be looking after them rather than shifting boxes around. Fisher is chairman, most likely on a 6 figure salary. If he hasn't got something better to do than shift boxes there's something very wrong there.
The club tweeted a couple of days ago that people should check their contact details are up to date and their communication preferences allow the club to send them marketing info as they will be sending out details on season tickets and new kit in the next couple of weeks.
Check your spam, I get loads.They have had my email and mobile numbers for years, yes they are up to date, check on Friday, but never received an email or .txt from club other than when purchasing tickets on line.
Marketing department needs a bit of a wake up call.

I would be interested to know how many corporate's we have now compared to before as my friend was one before we left but when he and his 6 friends asked for an extra parking space the club said no so they all stopped away saving each one about £70 per month.
6 people stopped going because they'd have to pay to park? That's less that a quid each per game even if you pay by the game!
On that subject a questions for the SCG, why is parking still restricted around the Ricoh, our crowds are now below the threshold at which the restrictions come in effect yet they are still being enforced. Can someone from ACL or the club query the council on this.

The question you ask is a very good one on the parking what is the threshold figure?
"Over 12,000 homes are covered by the Ricoh Arena Residents’ Parking Scheme. It aims to make sure there are no parking problems on major event days,where more than 10,000 people are expected at the Arena."

Wer'e short staffed and in the shit. Any leader worth their salt would be rolling up their sleeves and chipping in. There is literally nothing more important than front of house in a customer facing business.
Can I ask: will we see an improvement in customer service at the ticket office and perhaps improved training so all staff know what tickets are on offer?
They should know that stuff just so they can upsell and get people coming back. If people come in wanting say 3 tickets they should be pointing out it works out cheaper with a match package. If someone comes in asking about kids tickets they should be getting them signed up to JSBs.
Pardon my complete bleedin' ignorance at this point but I have to ask, with embarrassment, what is SCG ?
Supporters Consultative Group.....take no notice of ccfcway he is a cad
To be honest I've lost track as wellisn't SCG chair of SCG ?, or is she chair of the Stadium Consultation Group,, or as she calls it, SCG
To be honest I've lost track as well
Some of these were asked on here prior to the last SCG and I raised them - answers below
There was a mobile shop at Sixfields but Tynan Scope informed the meeting that they did not have the manpower or resources to bring stock and man a substantial retail presence hence the table top.
What!!!! how much would it cost to hire a bloke with a tow bar????Also no merchandise to sell!
They are obviously as tight as me!
The question you ask is a very good one on the parking what is the threshold figure?
No they wouldn't.
That's so typical of a labourite public sector response
10,000 according to this - http://www.coventry.gov.uk/info/117/parking/1025/ricoh_arena_-_residents_parking_scheme
Under 12's with a paying adult need to be free. That needs to include walk ups.
Good idea, I was going to say 2 free child/youth season tickets with every adult one.
We've really got nothing to lose by giving away free tickets to kids. They nag for food, get the merchandise and hopefully turn into paying season ticket holding adults. If we were packing the place of I'd get it but we're not. Would rather that than schoolkids who in many cases don't care and are sent with someone they're not going to form a habit with.
