To be fair, they made a big thing of passing the 3000 mark last week, they've got a "cunting great thermometer" (as deltaincline called it) on the Magic Roundabout, they do pretty much daily updates on the club site on figures sold, tbh I'm struggling to see how much more flagwaving they can do.
Fair shout about 'flag waving' in that respect, what I meant was.....given that from day one AF and co have espoused the Japanese stuff - kaizen, lean, six sigma etc - as long as they are practising it, they'll already have a very very very clear idea about whether we'll hit 6000 or not.
So if we're bang on the money, I might expect some bullish 'flag waving' telling us precisely that, it could rally a few more to the cause and help to dispel a growing, prevailing sense that we're not going to make it.
And if we are behind target, they'll be putting into action a million ideas about how to catch up, which we'll soon see the benefit of.
Of course, all this good business practice should be managed behind closed doors, but I'm intrigued, nosey and perhaps a little carried away: is all this change really happening at our football club?
That, and living 25 miles away I don't have the benefit of seeing a cunting great thermometer every day.
