Seems to be that a fair few people are going to miss the fans forum through prior commitments.

I thought I'd start a thread for those not going to put their questions which can be put forward.

I wonder if Alty Tv will be recording the occasion?

I wonder if Alty Tv will be recording the occasion?

I would imagine that after two hours on the gantry and after producing DVDs for the referee etc, that Alty TV will want a beer.........especially if things haven't gone well

[Toff Apple]

I can't be there and to be honest there is no point in making it a tit for tat argument,  It must be clear the fans thoughts on the management situation.  I would like to know:-
"If we get relegated and do eventually return to the conference national, are there any lessons that we have learnt that will enable us to establish ourselves in the league?"
additionally
"Does the board see the club as an aspirational conference national team or a good conference north team that will occasionally find itself in the national league?"

[wayno]

Great questions

[GB Alty]

My questions for you Jack

Why did Lee Sinnot leave the club?

When you said Neil Tolson was given the job due to loyalty to the club, what did you mean by that?

Did you think Neil Tolson had enough experience for such a job?

Neil Tolson seemed to announce himself as manager, communications from the club were unclear, why was that?

Do you see Neil Tolson as the right man to take us forward? If so why?

The Conference North is a tough league, do you believe the club has the right mentality to succesfully bounce back?

Do you feel at all responsible for the current position we find ourselves in? What could you have done better?

Crowds will drop considerably next season meaning reduced income, how do you plan to counter that?

Can any detail of the Watmore deal now be released?

Do you honestly understand why supporters are unhappy with the way the club seems to be run recently?

And what can you say to us assure us the club is in safe hands under your stewardship?

What are you plans to attract further investment?

Do you see it as a failure of you the board that minimal investment has been attracted during your tenure?

Would you give up your positions and shareholdings if external investers showed interest in the club? If so would you hold out any conditions?

How do you think trust can be recreated between board and supporters?

[NauticaPete]

Why do the fans not have a permanent elected member on the board? This could avoid a lot of miscommunication and bad blood

[Mick]

The club and team has clearly suffered from injuries to several key players this season, in fact the substitutes bench has regularly been filled with young inexperienced players who have not had any more than several minutes game time all season - was the decision not to strengthen the squad constrained by  finances or did Lee believe the team were still capable of results in its depleted state ?

[Uncle Globnasty]

Do you think it is healthy that important positions within the club are filled without any form of selection process?

[Jezza]

Was neil's promotion a unanimous board decision?

Was it a mistake that has cost us relegation?...given lots of fans foresaw it was a poor appointment why has the board been so slow to react to the predictable foreseeable poor results?...is relegation a price worth paying so we can employ a mate?

[Timperley The Best]

Will he we have a competitive top eight national north budget ?

[bighairedmike]

Will he we have a competitive top eight national north budget ?

First one to mention consolidation gets a slapping.

I actually want to hear us be ambitious. Our aim is to come straight back up, automatic promotion is what we're aiming for and we'll see what happens. But we'll give it our all to get back in the National.

If you are asking these questions, please can you add:

How much has the CSH project cost the Club this season?
How much has the CSH project benefited the Club this season? How can we ensure we maximise revenue available from the CSH to the benefit of the playing budget?
How much has running the Reserve team cost the Club? Does it represent good value?
Disappointing results – any idea what is this years average attendance, and how it compares with recent seasons?
 
Thanks

I believe it is more than 1185, Football Webpages has a few fixtures missing. It is probably over 1200.
