Did anybody go? If you did, could we have a summary of what was said?

[jimmyboldon]

Yes I went.
Lots of good questions and good answers from CG, LB Ryan D etc depending on the question asked.
Far too many questions/answers for a meaningful summary.
A few things I can remember.
Pitch will cost 2.5 million to sort out (CG)
Watering helps the ball to roll better (RD)
Contacts are being discussed (L bell)
Will take a fantastic offer to prise me away from the club I love (L Bell)
New investment being persued but takes time (CG)
Sorry about running out of replica kit last season. Lead in time for new order is very long, and we don?t want to be left with unsold kit
443 is an option (L Bell)
We set up/plan to win every game home or away (RD)
That?s probably 10/20% of it.

Did they say anything about cannabis lights for the pitch?
Any comments/questions about injury prone players?

[jimmyboldon]

Pitch 2 million, lights and running cost another half million.
Defended Chris Long vigorously.
Defended Hemings, Bogle and Lankester by saying how many games they had played last season for previous clubs.
Thomas was 5 mins away from being involved in next game and got a freak injury.
They are looking at every possible cause as to why we get so many injuries , but they don’t think we are alone in that.

I agree that we are not alone with the injuries. The problem is we play too much football from top to bottom.

Its frustrating but the team is doing well.

The problem is all teams are set up defensively with just one striker or two at the most. This means that the majority of the play is in the home half and for most teams that is. Defensive players will do what comes naturally and that is to defend and not strike. I can't apologise for suggesting that football needs to get back to basics which means having 4 or 5 strikers or forwards in the team for every match and then far more goal opportunities will exist. LB has said he wants the players to get forward but that is difficult for them to do. The whole idea of football is to score goals. Just my opinion.

Was that contacts or contracts. For who?
