grumswall Posted October 2, 2022 Share Posted October 2, 2022 Hospitality money would be lost as no ones going to pay£70 for a three course meal at eleven am.I'm still baffled how anyone can eat a 3 course meal at any time of day and I'm a fat pr*ck these days.It will all come down to careful consideration of losing out potentially on things like hospitality against the cost of actually having the lights etc on essentially. I don't think our walk up gate is going to change drastically. Either way I'd like to see the club put it to the fans or at least the fan groups, then work from there. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you think they've been up to it? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Connell is the only striker I can think of he has brought it, and yes it's fair to say he's struggled. Struggling to bring strikers in is affecting almost every club in the lower leagues to be fair. Again, the fact he's trying to bring additions in must show he knows we need more strength up front? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CALDERON Posted October 2, 2022 Share Posted October 2, 2022 It can't be escaped that the next 3 games are massive for the manager. In any kind of relegation mix after that and it becomes hard to defend things. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Struggling to bring strikers in is affecting almost every club in the lower leagues to be fair. Again, the fact he's trying to bring additions in must show he knows we need more strength up front?I'm guessing he means mcbride as the other striker. Connell has shown he has the ability against Ayr and in flashes in other games. Iv not seen anything to suggest mcbride is up to much though. I'd rather have zannata than him quite honestly. Dario at least had the ability to do something. It's a transition season though and as long as we can progress from where we are right now, I'll be happy enough.What is worrying me, is connelly not making as much of an impact so far this season. I think alot of that has to do with him having to wait 5 minutes on millen getting beyond him and then him subsequently having to cover for him though. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I go with the slightly portly.,it’s a wee bit less offensive 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No. McBride is a winger who is no better than what we have. Connell is not good enough. He'll have his moments. Virtually every week we hear the same thing about good play up to a point, it's the last third that needs addressed. Maybe this week we will see a new signing, hopefully he makes a difference. At least we will have a different option. Again we cannot rely on Lewis Vaughan being our saviour. He has undoubted talent but also has major injury issues. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I understand that it wouldn't be a regular event for the ordinary fan but as a treat maybe once or twice a season along with contributing to the club I think it's worthwhile.

Anyone in hospitality will tell you a well designed breakfast/brunch buffet is virtually a license to print money. Breakfast foods tend to be inexpensive and filling, and require much less attention/personnel than Lunch and Dinner. Yea the charge is lower, but the cost is too. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hank Scorpio Posted October 3, 2022 Author Share Posted October 3, 2022 I’ve done hospitality this season - it was really enjoyable. Folk do it because they enjoy it and it supports the club. Not exactly a baffling conundrum. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or prove that Scots are hardy b*****ds by putting a few bistro tables out front of the Porta-Titanic, and serve during the match…it would save on ice costs too! Maybe borrow a couple of anti-aircraft systems to deter the gulls. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
