It's only by chance I saw the Facebook live footage ( after the event btw - I didn't know it was happening, not that I could have got there anyway )

My first thoughts were how few people had attended but nonetheless I watched it and all I can say is that there maybe are some things that might need to be worked on to get people on board and more involved, but one thing is for sure, everything that's being done by the trust is for our benefit as fans of GTFC!!

Quoted from realist
It was the timing of the meeting that put my mates and I off. We can just make the kickoff. If we cancelled the last job we might have made the meeting,,but what do we do with the couple of hours afterwards, ? As we all had to drive later a couple of hours in the pub was not possible. A bit more thought to the tome would have gone a long way to boosting the attendance


Think is was done to allow the bar to open on time??

What time would have been better? Immediately after a game would have been better perhaps?

We put it on on a Saturday in the first place because we'd received feedback from exiles saying they had no chance (entirely understandably) of making an evening meeting. A lot of people continue to use the bar after the game has finished and to try to organise a meeting where people could make points that could be heard or debated on was deemed too difficult.


The aim of argument or discussion should not be victory but progress.

No problem with time or day if there was greater notice,I would have attended but could not get to Gy untill 1.00 p.m.


Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day,teach a man to fish and you give him an excuse for him to escape from the wife and kids for the weekend and drink lots of beer.

That's all a bit too modern to reach Friskney to be fair.

That's truer than you think.

If that is the case you need to consider your sample validity,i.e that is by definition only those who are on social media and e-mail are aware.,this excludes a significant amount of the population.,I fought all my Public Sector career against digital default.
