Questions for the Advisory Board

[horlock07]

Is that official court scheduling?

I think at the moment yes, courts are so under resourced its never clear why anything is actually going to happen.

Huge apologies for going over old ground over and over again and fair play, the club have answered the Zav question in detail. I guess my remaining niggle is what does Zav Austin get out of the 'voluntary' work and the Pakistan project? Some kickback from visas and comp tickets to STFC matches? Perhaps he feels that he owes Clem for helping him out historically and is giving up his time for the good of the club?

The club have answered the questions and so I'll have to take the response at face value, but it just doesn't feel quite right.

It doesn’t feel right - but I’ve just reconciled with the fact we have people like that running the club (not Angus, but the cockney crims). The dishonesty is so deeply ingrained, I suspect they hardly realise they’re doing it. They’re complacent and lack any class - but they’ve all we’ve got until something better shows up. My only worry is that I don’t trust them to sell to anyone reputable - but I’m tired of caring, and just want to win some football matches.

New minutes must be due soon?

And the new kits😀

And the new kits😀

Last year the new kits were announced on Wednesday 15th June and went on sale the next day.

[Quagmire]

We are playing skins next season, cheaper for the club and the fans don’t have to fork out for shirts.

[Posh Red]

And the new kits😀

I don’t know if it’s because they are waiting until they are available in the shop before announcing (to try & stop the endless “when will they be in the shop” questions).
Or whether it’s just because it’s just as disorganised behind the scenes as everything else seems to be.

I’m hoping it’s the first, but feel it’s probably the latter

And the new kits😀

New kits were supposed to launch on Thursday. That was the plan anyway. No head of media along with whatever else is going on behind scenes RE staffing is probably why it been delayed.

I’m sure it used to be a thing that clubs released new home shirt for the final home game of the season, then clubs would have a whole pre season of shirt sales.

End of the month for new home shirts
Away kit july
3rd shirt aug/sept

It did.

When we were proper skint and played in next seasons kit (final day against Luton end of the 02/03 season I think 1-1 draw) I believe our players were told specifically not give away their kit and they would definitely need to use it next season as we were that skint & anything given away would come out the players wages.

Miglioranzi had just signed a new contract and ended up on his pants after the game.

I tell a lie - we won 2-1

Questions to the advisory board can now only come from named individuals.

I get why they'd do that, but inevitably it does make it harder to ask the difficult questions. It's not like there are tons of Oxford fans submitting questions about why Swindon continues to be a shithole, is it?

I suppose it does mean we can give well deserved shit to whoever moans about being called a "punter" next time.

[Mooneyraker]

Agree with this in principle but it might make people scared of asking questions about possible criminal elements in the hierarchy which isn't great.

[Quagmire]

As far as I can see, there is nothing stopping anyone setting up a fake Twitter, or email account, using a false name. Which would take all of 2 minutes.
