There's a copyright issue that's probably not really applicable here unless Jason is feeling super fussy. The main thing is that it stops traffic visiting the WOAP site and leaving comments or seeing their other articles.

 

They'll trot out re:Aubridged accounts. That they comply with companies house rules & regulations.
I certainly get the point MH raises. Does bring up the question of why and what are we trying to hide. As MH states we are just one of a handful that do this

 

I'm not sure the answer we got regarding the scoreboard/big screen rings true.

It can't simply be an EFL issue, most clubs with that facility show games as they happen without the obvious contentious video replays etc. We showed replays last year albeit they looked like they were recorded via camera phone but it was better than nothing.

I'm sure it's probably likely we either can't afford or are unwilling to pay for licencing rights. Surely we should be able to knock up an old goals montage or an historic blast from the past. Anything's better than them bloody mamma Mia and Dubrovnik hotel adverts on repeat

 

Sudden increase in interest in £100 Ford Fiestas from the local scrappers cos City fans need an AM radio!!

 

Post #114.

 

I like the suspense you built in there about the meeting place being about 14 miles away.

 

Where they holding the meeting, top of cow and calf rocks?

 

I can read the Telegraph look on the club website and Bantam Talk,
thats if i dont get a ban . But i dont do twitter or Facebook . For Important official club news club website please

 

I’d like to know what Rupp’s plans are for the new season. Is he intending coming more often than previously or still ‘watching’ from afar?

Any update on the help provided by the Supporters Clubs paying towards services etc

Are we using the big screen to the best of its ability? Weren’t we told that goal replays would be seen, highlights from other games etc? Not saying we aren’t, but is there more we could be using it for?

 

Well I live a few hours away and didn’t see the request for questions, but as a starter;

Why are City one of the few clubs to file abridged accounts? Why the lack of transparency that almost every FL club gives its fans?

What was Julian’s consultancy fee last season? Why does the club have a CEO who has been involved in previous administrations?

Why does it take supporters to point out issues like dirty toilets? Why can’t the club display some professionalism and preemptively resolve issues?

Who is responsible for player recruitment? Why is Drury still involved after last year’s events?

 

I take your point. On the one hand it’s a private business, but on the other hand football clubs are more than a business. They’re a community asset representing the city. Your favourite restaurant goes out of business, there’s a dozen more, your football club goes out business, you rip a good part of the heart out of a place. That’s why I think it’s important to have transparency. Stefan, Mark, Julian, Richmond, Stafford etc., they are custodians of the club for the next generation.

A properly and transparently run football club, with the backing of the council, fans and residents, joining forces with other sporting teams, allied with a future vision for the city would help rejuvenate a dying city that’s on its arse and in the shadow of Leeds.

 

We did re-lay it, presumably at a relatively high cost and it's lasted for about 4 months.

Don't you see that as an issue worth addressing?

 

I may be wrong but I think this was suggested some time back and the feeling was that the roof wouldn't be able to carry the weight. May be completely wrong but I thought it had been discussed.

 

You can suggest your own questions? It's an open forum and no one persons issues would be discounted out of hand I imagine? Perhaps they'd take priority over the pitch issues if they were deemed important enough?
