If it's like the last non event about forty will be there.....the usual culprits
That's the point. Nice and cosy, with the regular faces. Keep it at an inconvenient time to keep the numbers down. This sort of engagement with fans should be welcomed, but it would be welcomed a lot more if consideration was given to when it was convenient for more fans to attend.
So then, Frank, Mr tree, when and where would YOU have it? Perhaps you would like to organise everyone's diary for them?
Oh, don't be too disappointed when others criticise your choice of time and place.
Apologies for picking on just you two. I had only read page 1. Other moaners are available..........
As a moaner who has sometimes moaned about others not responding to my points I'll reply!
My post was partly an effort at more efficient fan engagement (as well as a moan, so no apology needed). People demand these Q and A's and the Brent Board, to their credit, do provide them. Yet attendance numbers are pretty small and, as others have said, it tends to be the same people. I wrote to the club making this point last time, and received a response that made talked of the unavailability of the GT Suite owing to the Fanfest and also (validly) said that Board members had other commitments later in the day.
I believe by varying the times of Q and A's you would open up the opportunity for others (notably myself) to attend occasionally. I don't necessarily think that they all have to be on matchdays. Naturally different times suit different people and I certainly wouldn't take offense if times that suit me weren't appropriate for others.!
I honestly don't have a particular venue in mind - I think ruling out alternative timings purely on the basis of no venue being available would be fairly feeble.
Whilst I am quite happy to admit to the crime of moaning, I am by no means unique amongst Argyle fans. Where I differ from some is in wanting to be able to attend these forums sometimes, in order to articulate my moans!
