JoeP Posted July 28, 2020 Share Posted July 28, 2020 10 minutes ago, Lee Sinnott said: I'm sure I was reading plaudits on here for Natalie Atkinson the other week for doing just that... Yep, and fair play to her there as she's probably spinning a lot of plates. However there's an example on this thread of the phone not being answered at BP. We also have to find out about our players signing for other clubs through the other clubs' website. The endless statements which just seem to be about saving face rather than doing anything productive. It all stinks and needs sorting out. Doubt it's natalie's fault - she seems to be coming out of this better than most, but I think it's important for a new owner to understand the importance of reputation, customer service and how we come across in the media which, on the whole at the moment, seems pretty poor.

Because she has answered the phone a few times? I thought she was the Managing Director, not a receptionist... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

another fan Posted July 28, 2020 Share Posted July 28, 2020 Has anyone tried to purchase a ticket using option 3 which I believe allows me to use a refund for last seasons games. I have tried to purchase on line but without success. Also as we know it is difficult to contact anyone at the Club Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My impression is that you are expected to pay the total up front and a refund given at a later date. (Option 3) Really reluctant to do this given the uncertain situation the moment and potentially games being played behind closed doors. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will presume then that the deal to buy the landlord out is not completed yet. Shame, the parties can't get around the table and thrash out the SLA again and get the damn thing back open. The main stand and Chaddy are from modern and ideal for a great fan experience. Having a modern stand sat there, staring at us all is not good in my opinion Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

owdumer Posted August 5, 2020 Share Posted August 5, 2020 No you can't, I exchanged e-mails with NA last week and she said that due to uncertainty over safety issues she would have to inform me when/if itwas sorted before selling seats. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
owdumer Posted August 5, 2020 Share Posted August 5, 2020 In the meantime you can (if you really want to!) purchase a ticket elsewhere in the ground , and , IF sorted out, have it transfered later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am being thick, its a modern stand, surely the safety issues are more easily resolved than what could be in the main or chaddy end stands?

He had to borrow some of the money to pay the debentures. I really don’t want him to own the freehold and I’m pretty certain he doesn’t personally have the wonga either. If he somehow manages to raise the money from unknown investment I really will be fearful for the future of the football club. Ive said it before and I’ll say it again, I don’t think that he will be at this football club for very much longer, and I hope he leaves sooner rather than later and at least gives any new owner a realistic chance of turning the club’s fortunes around!
