    Are the club missing a trick

    I keep seeing posts on my Facebook from a fellow dark blue, Eddie Lafferty, he’s now commercial guy for North End, you can see the work this man does and his passion for the job, bringing in thousands for a junior team, what an asset this man would be to our commercial team

    I think the commercial department is trying really hard in a very difficult market. Negativity abounds around our club and it is amazing how our troubles now get double page coverage the local papers.
    We asked for better communications from our club. Just look what happens absolutely wall to wall bad news.
    Everything Nelms said that was good and had been achieved Ed during his tenure was blown out of the water by his other comments about the state of Dens and the new stadium was our ONLY hope.
    I think we need to fo us on the team and at least trying to get wins against Aberdeen and DUFC. Commercial department should be going back over lapsed ST holders and trying to sell them a great deal for the remaining home games. Who cares if its a two for one or whatever. Get the ground filled.
    SE should be getting special attention for the youngsters, don't know what they are called now but commercial department should be trying to contact them and helping them to sell tickets.
    Do supporters clubs get a deal on their tickets? Don't know, but DSA seem to be flavour of the month with our club. Is there something that our imperial department could do to help them recruit new members?
    Hospital should be sold out for all remaining home games. If not why not!

    Tried to get full hospitality weeks ago for Saturday's Aberdeen match, was fully booked months ago, which is a good sign !

    Think you are spot on j.Been to a cpl of hospo days at north end and its a braw day out. There are numerous lounges at dens vacant bar home games that he would have filled with themed nights,music etc.All would be extra income for the club.

    Maybe he's happy where he is and knows he wouldn't be if he started working for DFC?

    You can only ask the question, he’s raised thousands in the past for the club, it’s in his blood
