Not while nothing changes, I think a fair few are in the same boat.

Given that he is going to be CEO for the season at least and that it increasingly looks like David Hughes is our backer and TR out coach, what could be done to get you and the others to maybe come back on board?

Genuine question by the way. I believe that there are 1,000 or so core supporters including 600 ST holders and 400 regulars/"quite-oftens" and in this group there are maybe 150 fanatics, of which I would include you and the other usual suspects.

The 150 are key to this working in 2014.....if you accept that Gus is there for the year, what could be done to get you more actively involved with the club. PM me if you don't want to discuss this on an open forum, but I am keen to find out exactly what needs to be done to re-engage the fans with the club.

I don't mean club colours/badge etc....I mean what can the club do to get you back to the level of involvement from a few years back?

Genuinely haven't seen this, where did you get it from? All I know is two year deal at hive and Gus and Blake solly were thanked by DH and now they were looking to recruit players.

Also saw a tweet from long saying lets get into this season but nothing official

No ST for me while the current clowns are in still in place. This does not mean I will not attend, but I will be selective on games and a lot will rest on kick off times and clashes with London amateur league games.

Same here . Skolars take precedence now.

Me too.

I think the whole support base is just getting fed up with everything, everyone has their own gripes, the performances, the management, the organisation and even each other and the team constantly losing doesn't encourage anyone to have a good time and if people aren't enjoying it they are going to drift.



Genuinely think results on the pitch would help morale for everyone, if that's not going to improve instantly then make the day enjoyable again, proper entertainment before after and during the game: u19s on pitch before the game, home fan v away fan kicking game at half time for a shirt or tickets or something, a good band after the game and a separate area that's quieter with whatever other sport is on tv in the bar before player presentations and mingling.



Non match day stuff could be the fans forum ( not a dig at club but it brings fans together on a non match day) a season launch like at st Katherine's dock a few years back. These things can allow fans time to connect with the club in other ways and feel part of it and not just like a number in the crowd with no input.



Playing games at times when other London league fixtures aren't on (amateur and champs1) would also be good, then invite them along, it can't hurt to do a couple of London league club days a year on a Friday night or a Sunday. There's a lot of keen league fans playing in London who know watching the broncos is a waste of time. Change that.



Themed match days like a ladies day, fancy dress day, wear your football shirt and get in for £1 day, Anzac Day could make for good days.



Sorry for turning it to a marketing post but sorting out supporters (new and old) experiences will improve things IMO

No need to say sorry. I just wanted to get a feel as to what the club need to do to get buy in from their hard core support.

Given the Dave, Tony and Gus bandwagon looks like rolling along for another 12 months, the question is what can they do?

Forums? Most definitely!

Players Mingling/Presentations open to all? Assuredly

Communications? Improvement required without a shadow of doubt!

Match-day experience with comps and bands? Spot on

Themed days? 100% ACCURATE. I have always said games should be marketed as "events"



Anything else they could do?

Top ideas sogspurs. Matchday experiences and ideas you have mentioned will keep people coming regardless of the result. Theme days sounds a quality idea.And launches on the Jubilee line Stations would be great also.



Still baffled as to no employment of a press officer.Hopefully we are taking our time to get the best in. Really wouldn't mind a yank as marketing person as they really know how to make matches an experience eps in the NFL and NBA.

Surely what matters are DH's and AK's plans, not Gus's.

As someone who favours Skolars, I should be happy that some people on here will be attending their games a bit more in 2014 but it is sad that some people on here, who've spent much of their hard earned and time supporting a failing club, have turned their back on the club.



That isn't a dig at those people who have turned their backs, I understand their reasons and I respect those that can walk away from a club that clearly means a lot to them.



However, shouldn't the staying of Hughes and Mackay push those of you who feel that strong to push on with the Supporters Trust and buy a stake within the club so that you, the fans, the people who really matter, can get your point across to the circus in charge?
