    Supporters Trust?

    So, the question still remains. What would you do differently? Let's hear some ideas.
  2. How does this twitter carry-on work then? Does it cost money to get the updates via mobile?

    Supporters Trust?

    Yeah, I know that, i'm just saying that any kind of new "movement" that was born from discussion here would need the input of veteran posters, and people "in the know", so to speak.

    Interesting. They obviously know how useful a forum such as this could be for reaching members/possible members then.

    I imagine that using this forum as one way of keeping communication with the fans would be a major plus for any new trust type idea. Especially considering the amount of posts there's been regarding the current trusts lack of communications with paying members.

    As would I. However, with me not being a veteran poster here, or involved with the previous trust in any way, i'd be reluctant to take a major hand in things. Would do whatever I could though.

    The question that can be asked at this early point then would be "who would be willing to help out, and in what capacity?". Just for the sake of this discussion, let's imagine that the current trust folds tomorrow. Who would be willing to step forward, on any level? I'm not talking about taking control, or running things, i'm simply asking what kind of time and resources would anyone have that they would be willing to put into a new venture to begin with?

    Before I post anything here, i'll admit that i'm more of a reader than a poster on here, but I have been keeping up with this thread with interest. I think the question really has to be the commitment levels of the people currently running the trust. If they aren't as interested in running it, then maybe it's time to clear out and bring in some new faces altogether? A question i'd like to pose to some of the forum members who are more "in the know" than I am is what can & should be done to get the trust back on track? Let's say, for talkings sake, that the current board completely clear out, and an entirely new lot of faces were brought in. What would you do, or like to see done, to improve things?
  9. I've just noticed that there's a service called "footymad" that's advertised on Fir Park Corner, £3 per month apparently.
  10. Thanks for that Gaag, I appreciate it.
  11. I was going to start a thread to ask a question, but thought that maybe a thread like this would be a good idea, providing somewhere for people to ask general questions about the club that maybe forum members can answer. Will perhaps save there being a new thread for every question/comment. Anyway, I was wondering if anyone knew of a Motherwell results texting service? I thought I saw something like this being advertised a season or so ago, but can't seem to find anything now. I'm just looking for something that sends out goal alerts, half-time, full-time results and the like.
  12. I'm not sure if anyone knows for sure, but are attendance figures higher from August through October? Paying £18-£20 to sit for 90 minutes in the freezing cold in January doesn't really appeal to me. Maybe the much touted idea of summer football should be seriously considered? I'm not sure how it would work during national tournament years though.
  13. The problem is, whenever the club have reduced prices it has only been for a single game. It's no good doing that in my opinion. They should be looking to bring prices down on a consistent basis as that is the only way that such an idea will work. It takes longer than one week for word to get out that football is cheaper to go to.
  14. Couldn't agree more. It may not be worth much to the OF, what with them rubbing shoulders with Europes finest every 2nd Wednesday or so, but it's still the league cup to me. I certainly wouldn't knock back a good run in it.
  15. All I did was post that I heard we may be getting an Everton youngster for a bit and everyone started laughing. I didn't get the joke, so I just laughed as well
  16. Chuckle ye not my friend!
  17. Anyone heard anything about a young striker from Everton apparently being our next signing?
  18. Didn't Fraser only just arrive in the summer? I can't see him being sold or released just now, especially with only 19 year old Kosiorowski as the other back-up keeper to Ruddy at present.

    Ticket Prices

    Despite the fact that you have already said you don't think that life should grind to a halt simply because you happen to be out of work, you don't think unemployed people should be using £5 per week from their income to attend a football game? I'd say that a price-cut for unemployed people is just as valid as it is for students, especially considering the unemployment level we have in the Motherwell area. I've posted two quotes for you there chief, which shows that she's at least looking to discuss the various ideas and ways in which we would look at getting more bums on seats. Sure, she mentioned unemployment as well, but she's far from "harping on about it". In fact, having read over the thread, i'd go as far as to say that it's you who is doing all the "harping on" about unemployed fans in this thread, not her.
