    @Bigrod@Bigrod ,Glenn Ackroyd mentioned 'trialling' a fan zone.
    Any further thoughts, or development on this ?

    arranging a fans forum, or this sort of meeting and then fobbing us off with Ryan Sparks is a right cop out.

    I don't give a toss what its like maintaining the website or running the twitter account, I want to hear from Bowyer and his staff and players if anyone, not the bloody media man!

    You even went to one with Bowyer...... https://bantamtalk.com/index.php?threads/fans-forum-3-dates-venues.2587/.

    You commented <a href="https://bantamtalk.com/index.php?threads/fans-forum-3-dates-venues.2587/page-3#post-230662">Fans Forum 3 dates/venues</a>

    There have been two.

    You can attend the next one on August 8 - 7.00pm – Bradford & Bingley Rugby Club - Wagon Lane, Bingley, BD16 1LT – contact Bingley Bantams Supporters Club: secretary@bingleybantams.co.uk.

    Did you personally ask Bowyer any questions?

    You do not have to attend the Media meeting.

    Not sure what there is to get excited about?

    The list of issues in this thread will be ones which I will attempt to raise, because they are recurring themes on BT.

    Think this has been asked 100 times before but can we please have regular updates on how many away tickets we've sold.

    Priority ticket or per match? On an updated basis or at the conclusion of the game? Is this for an attendance figure? Sometimes they also have ‘pay on the day’ and City will not sell those actual tickets.

    In respect of the Grimsby game the club has posted this https://www.bradfordcityfc.co.uk/news/2019/july/sell-out-warning-grimsby-v-city/

    So for example for this game, that article says 150 tickets left but nobody has any idea what the allocation was in the first place so we don't know how many sold.

    Even an update 1 week before and a final update the day before is fine.

    alright Rod calm down, crikey, I was just saying.

    Yes Bowyer was there, as was Ryan. yes I did ask Bowyer a question. I know I don't have to attend the meeting, I won't be doing. I was just pointing out its incredibly pointless the club sending Ryan to these.

    I cannot find details as to how many were allocated. All I could readily identify was this, ‘Away fans are located in one corner of the Osmond Stand, at one end of the ground, where just under 600 supporters can be accommodated. For teams with a larger following then the whole of the stand can be given to away fans increasing the allocation to 2,200‘. I assume it will be the larger number. https://www.footballgroundguide.com/leagues/england/league-two/blundell-park-grimsby-town.html#awhat-is-it-like-for-visiting-supporters

    Exactly, wouldn't it just be easier of the club said "we've sold x amount of tickets"?

    Be interesting to know if we are looking at higher level loans once the window has closed for higher league teams and if there's any particular clubs we have good relationships with? We've gone from having too many to now only having one! Seems likely we will have another 1 or 2 (and wasn't asking for names) but may be an interesting question.

    I think some of the team/recruitment matters may not be in the remit of Ryan Sparks and Mick Shackleton to discuss. However l think a question in respect of what, if any, of the player budget remains unallocated is a reasonable one. If there is some scope, then I guess it is identifying the right players. As I understand it, some clubs will only loan players out if the have an ‘automatic’ place in the team, which could restrict the managers options.

    If you read the Grimsby away thread, I think it was @Bradford End@Bradford End who replied to Bronco saying about 1850 sold in total.

    Absolutely this.

    It's a really easy way to market games and generate buzz and excitement around the club. We all love a big away following and if as hoped we're doing well it can help create an excitable atmosphere.

    Website and social media is where any info will be most accessible. We've got 90k+ followers on twitter so I'd say that any info posted on there would reach the widest possible audience.

    Have you ever watched Question Time? Although the questions are aimed at the party leaders, they are ‘answered’ by members of those parties who may not be the best to respond.

    Why shouldn’t Sparks be able to answer?
