This is spot on. And I’d say that they’ve placed far too much emphasis on the ABs recently and neglected the others, unless you are a 15 year old on TSTBL.
And yes, keeping long term fans/customers happy is the benchmark for most successful businesses.
Not sure why I’m drawing your ire but hey, thanks.
No ire from me. Waste of energy. You make some interesting points on a generally consistent basis. That's a good thing.  |

Why don't you knock it off with them negative waves? Why don't you dig how beautiful it is out here? Why don't you say something righteous and hopeful for a change?
Crap!

That is the role the Trust should be playing, once per month, instead of the current format of submitting e-mail questions and getting one word responses or three line whip answers.
Even in that interview, Hawes lets him off a small detail right at the start - he asked about a Winding-Up order and Clem responds by talking about the NSW business being liquidated following a restructure. The Winding-Up order was petitioned in the UK against the UK business (no idea on how that played out in court, or if it was delayed or dismissed). Again, it is very likely nothing to worry about, but it is the sort of line of questioning you want to do with a person knowing you have 30-60 minutes with them.
Seems pretty certain Axis have the gig on the ground - to be expected.
Overall - this is what you want from the Chairman/CEO of a football club. I fully appreciate he has a day job, and a night job - BUT, you buy a football club, expect the irritation of it consuming far too much time relative to turnover. It's not a normal business. Someone at the club would be well served by getting him and Rob to give them some bullet points from which they pull together an Exec update once per month - they could even parse it into a bunch of smaller updates over a few weeks.
On the letting him off bit, I think the language used has caused confusion. The point of the interview was on the Axis liquidation not the winding up order, I think AH used the wrong term. |

We also don’t have a groundsman until August, the game at the weekend should be interesting.

Comments like this bug me, because you are implying the pitch hasn’t been touched since Marcus left, which just isn’t true is it? |

Comments that are true….you may think you know it all, however you do not! Trust me when I say this, we have no one prepping the pitch until the new guy starts. Which is august. |

I saw the pitch being cut from inside the ground a good week after MC left the building. |

Pitch has being maintained by 2 x 3rd party suppliers until new Head Groundsman starts on Aug 1st. So has been maintained at great cost! |

We have a game on Saturday, it'll be relatively obvious if there's 6 inches of grass and no pitch markings. And entertaining too!

It’s been subbied out, but then you knew that, didn’t you? Really don’t understand the need for people to start rumours that just aren’t true. |

Ask Rob if the goal nets were found…. It’s a shambles at the mo! |
