Flying 5 Posted August 15, 2016 Share Posted August 15, 2016 Current problems are; lack of man power and not enough been done to please supporters. Wouldn't having a gathering, meeting, forum whatever you want to call it, where ideas are discussed uncover some more volunteers. People may be more likely to give up their time if it was being spent on ideas that they support. I have been reading with interest some of the posts on this thread. The Amber Ribbon supporters group still meet regularly, as with most things suggested on here it all boils down to manpower and people being willing to commit. There are still a group of volunteers who spend three mornings a week, carrying out maintenance jobs around the stadium. We have tried fundraising events over the last couple of years, again it's up to people committing to attend these. Anyone is welcome to attend the meetings and come on board as part of the committee. The next Amber Ribbon meeting is this evening at Hanging Heaton Working Mens Club at 8pm. It would be good to see some new faces and ' pool ideas ' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
graham fisher Posted August 15, 2016 Share Posted August 15, 2016 Totally agree on the Amber Ribbon music. It doesn't get anybody fired up before a game. That is why I don't tend to use it as the players run out when I do PA duties. Nothing against the brass band though at all.I wondered why you'd stopped playing it,shame really. Why don't we having players coming out to"always look on the bright side of life". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sir Jekyll Stocking Posted August 15, 2016 Share Posted August 15, 2016 You may have started something there, Graham. I'll do my utmost to restrain myself from posting alternative(s) - although a couple immediately spring to mind!

Blind side johnny Posted August 15, 2016 Share Posted August 15, 2016 Maybe a couple of our players could get fired up by Tubthumping?

The worrying thing is, he came up with a couple of the songs that came to my mind. Quid quid latine dictum sit altum videtur Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

the old nine ole Posted August 30, 2016 Author Share Posted August 30, 2016 Idea .... invest in a new P.A. system for the Royal suite !! Packed out after the match yesterday, but only those on the front table could hear the presentations, I wanted to hear what was said, but being sat at the back couldn't hear a thing!! .... a missed opportunity... I wasn't the only one who couldn't hear ... many fans shouting ' speak up I can't hear you' without acknowledgement or improvement. The attraction of the after match presentations is significant to some, and should be conducted in a more professional way... yesterday no P.A. at all ... other occasions, when the P.A. is switched on it has been like listening to Norman Collier .. or it just gives up half way through the speeches ... Come on Dews .. sort it out ...I want to hear what is said!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
