How will they grow the supporters club if they don’t circulate their purpose? Or is it some closed shop?

Why not highlight some of the initiatives even as a teaser rather than just shutting the door on an already dwindling support base.

They are looking for someone to help with social media though probably needs someone with a more positive outlook.

I might be wrong but think i first mentioned the the SC should post their minutes here as a way of raising awareness of what they were doing or planned to do with a view to increasing members. I don't always agree with Wirequin but on this topic would be interested in what he has been arrogant about or maligned, if for no other reason than only 2 men & a dog know. The club doesn't work hard enough to communicate & seems the SC wants to follow suit. Real shame Chris Warren isn't about. I assume the minutes don't need to be cleared by GCHQ so you should want them out there. Maybe itsmeagain your the one with a hole in your trouser pocket.

The purpose of the SC is pretty clear on the club website when it was launched.

This Monkey Club, is proving to be somewhat divisive.

Just when i thought you were showing signs of enlightenment with your post regarding Toronto, you come out with this! You have completely missed the point as usual.

Who is/are ‘they’?

SC

I understood that Social Media was one of the areas of expertise, one of the committee of the SC.
Perhaps they are too busy .

Maybe they are not positive enough

Or sober.

Am I aloud to ask what the SC have been up to or is that information exclusive to the inner sanctum?

Doubt it.

WQ, I think that you are right.. We are not worthy.

Not a happy ship the SC. It appears it is not delivering on what it promised. Some long standing fans are not happy.
The lottery too is peeing a few people off.
Not good end to the year for the SC.

whats the issue??

Problem with the lottery is down to numbers in the office managing things!

NB,really ?
Four months on from winning and still no prize.

Just saying how it is, not making excuses.
Its what i was told when i asked where my winnings were, believe there are 2 folk total in the office. Am assuming you have e mailed and asked the question.

Can't say i'm surprised in what you say.

Hi there.

I find it very strange that you have been waiting four months for a lottery win payment, I have checked the spreadsheet and nobody is waiting any longer than since November, which I do accept is a decent length of time to wait, however we have been really busy with the SL bid and various other things at the club.

Please email me, it can be sorted really quickly and really easily. If you have been waiting four months then please just send me an email now and I can verify it within minutes of getting the email.

That is a damming post. I'm surprised in one sense but not in another. I'm not sure the scope of the club was ever laid out nor any meaningful measurables set (certainly not publicly published); therefore it would always be open to 'personality'. That would therefore be doomed to failure.

Even today i just cant think what the SC could realistically offer. Away match coaches, social events,(we've had both of them pre SC) after that i'm lost. Its such a small supporter base.

I have to say that I think the whole Supporters Club thing has been handled very badly. The fact the the club did not have the courtesy to communicate its intentions to the LBSA, prior to the announcement of its formation, was at least, rather poor.
I decided from the onset not to get involved and am glad having read what you have said Wantawin, that I have done so.
I too have followed the club for many years and the SC joins a long line of things that the club have done to upset the fans.The dwindling number of fans brings proof of this.
What is more the officers of the club are very thin skinned, as you have found out. Criticism is taken badly. Can you imagine if we started a fanzine, how well that would go down.
Certainly someone needs to get a grip of this side of the club, before more loyal fans join the exodus.
I might add that very recently I won a prize in the LBSA 100 club. The prize money was made available to me the very same day.

Within a week of the first committee meeting a consitution was written and agreed, which to my knowledge has never been published. As I left the committee back at the beginning of November, I am not sure if the constitution is being followed as you require 5 committee members to form a quorum, I do not think there are 5 committee members. I will say the minutes of the first committee meeting did state the aim of the supporters club and the aim was then published in the first (and only?) news letter.
