Quoted from jamesgtfc
Stacks of questions have been sent in apparently, but they have stopped alternating between the floor and those posted in. It's just open to the floor.


‘Now we have a question from the floor. It’s from Cecil, 52, who lives at home still’

‘Jason and Shaun, given that how well we’ve done so far in our unbeaten fa cup run, can I just ask, what’s your favourite biscuit. And do you dunk or not dunk?’t

I wish Petit was the sole investor / chairman . A far more straightforward individual.

Unless it’s a safety requirement, that’s a complete waste of time and money. I sit near one of the posts. It’s not difficult to move yourself to not miss anything. I know that at 60, I might be below average age for the Main Stand though.


It's always been a continuing  complaint about the Main Stand -  too many roof supporting posts spoiling or limiting the view. Now that it is being addressed we have moaning that it's a waste of money! FFS.

Have you seen the cost of labour and materials lately, and would you like the club to reduce the playing budget significantly to extensively rebuild large sections of Blundell Park? We've averaged attendances of 6142 in the league over the 9 home games this season, comfortably below capacity, so unless there's a sudden and drastic u-turn in results throughout the rest of the season I can't really see it being a massive priority in the short to medium term.


I got the impression when they came in they were experts in certain  fields, had the business contacts to make things happen. I get the impression from listening to this they are finding it much harder than they envisaged, in my opinion obviously.

They seriously need to vet the people that attend this forum or at least the questions they are asking.

This is turning into a pointless exercise.

We've gone from asking why we're not giving schoolkids 15 mins of 1st team football to talking about a new stadium that's never been on the agenda.

And now we're talking toilets.....

Agree. Running an equity fund or a tech business has far less variables as JS refers to them. It seems to be the variables that they’re struggling with.

I'd imagine it's significantly easier to find investors for city based real estate development projects or successful international tech companies than it is for a loss making lower division football club in a remote outpost of northern England too.

I agree about moving your head. The biggest problem around views in the Main Stand is related to the roof, rather than the columns that support that.
