What do you mean 'it's too serious' Reg? The tag line reads '80% bollocks' not '100%'. I would have thought any direct line of communication between fans and management has to be a good thing. I would have also thought this forum would be the ideal medium though which to do it. You have less idiots on here than the Adver forum and those posts that do slip through from the J1mmy's of this world can soon be eliminated by the likes of myself.
It cannot be a bad thing surely. I wonder what Mr Devlin thinks?

Just my opinion of course, but 25% football is a small proportion, and as a registered member Mark D is free to make his contribution as he sees fit. Think that granting him some sort of special status rather undermines what this place is about. |

POWER TO THE PEOPLE!
Reg, is your avatar talking to you?
Mark Devlin is a good bloke. But Imagine if he was on here talking bollocks with us lot? The Western Dailly Press would have a field day!

it's a nice idea but we'd have to run it past the club and mark devlin first. however it might be a bit of a waste of time because it's unlikely he'll be able to answer many of the questions people want to know about.

I sent an e mail to the club suggesting it a few months ago.Something along the lines of the ask SteveL bit on otib.They didnt reply but to be honest it might be a more of a curse as it would have to be heavily moderated and youd get nobheads from thisis asking stupid questions over and over again.

But that otib thing is so heavily policed its a bit pointless.....its an official site so fair enough they can do what they want with it, but most of the questions get removed leaving anything that suits the party line.to be answered.....they then clos eit down at strategic times. |

I think it's highly commendable of him to come on here and thisis, and try to give us answers. Can only be a good thing in building the relationship between club and fans. |

just because he handles interviews quite well and is a confident speaker,doesn't mean he is doing a good job and listening to supporters.
many issues have been raised by fans that have been ignored or brushed aside.
an example of this is the disgusting prices we are charged to watch our team.
his job is in the interest of the board not the fans of the club,people should remember this

Which is why I don't think OST scheme however well meant is good idea....its axiomatic that the aims of the Board and the fans are inimical.
