Re: Returning to the Dog & Duck

I don't have a problem with a chairman presenting a new direction for the club to its members, presenting the facts, calling a vote and then, if they then loose that vote deciding to step down. But if these rumours are true then it does appear to be a bit of arm twisting. Surely it's best to keep t...

Re: Returning to the Dog & Duck

There is also the issue of lost revenue with the small angry ginger man's friends and family bypassing the turnstiles by going into the ground through the clubhouse doors. I have witnessed this many times, on one occasion about a dozen of them. Whether any of these people would go if they had to pa...

Re: Returning to the Dog & Duck

I'm glad my post has led to a debate about the pros and cons of the proposed move. The club would do well to remember that although it is fan owned, and those who do join should be those who vote on such things, it shouldn't be run just for those members. The club must be transparent with non member...

Re: Returning to the Dog & Duck

Am I less of a fan because i couldn't afford it at the start of the season? Why the secrecy? If people knew what the meeting is about, if it is about a proposed move, then they might be more inclined to become a member. Is there any need to make poorer fans feel like 2nd class supporters? Theres hun...

Re: Returning to the Dog & Duck

I'm not a part owner, just a regular long term supporter, so can't see what that thread is about.

Returning to the Dog & Duck

During the last couple of games there were rumours going round about leaving Hayden Road and returning to the Dog & Duck. Any truth in this? Is this what the special meeting is about? Personally I'm all for it. Although the location of Hayden Road is perfect for me, a 5 minute walk, it is no lon...

Re: Sir Keir Starmer visits Hayden Road

As much as it could be construed in some quarters as good publicity interviewing the Leader of the Opposition, this doesn't sit right with me. With just 2 days to go to the Wellingborough byelection, it is at best naive that we've given the labour Party candidate and the leader of the opposition an...

Re: [ Hospitality ] New Matchday options available.

Does the £30 for non season tickets include a match ticket? It would explain the £10 difference. If not, I can't see many being sold
