Cowden316 Posted May 5, 2015 Share Posted May 5, 2015 On the communications front I agree that it was some what lacking this season and we must look to improve that for the season that lies ahead.Dave you usually do a grand job of keeping us informed on here etc but I know your reasons why this method was withdrawn later in the season as you have mentioned earlier. I think to assist the board who are probably already snowed under it might make sense to draft in a few new volunteer roles for next season whether that's on match day,meetings,communications,fan engagement etc. Also as a member of the 100 club is there also any membership places left on the official Cowdenbeath Fc supporters club?

Aberdeen Cowden Posted May 5, 2015 Share Posted May 5, 2015 Take the John Lints issue re communication - there was a good reason why nothing was put out as we were trying to persuade John to change his mind so it was entirely appropriate we put nothing out. We will prepare a release tomorrow now and here I am sitting trying to watch the football but instead 'communicating on demand'.Anyway, John has decided to step down and we all deeply regret that on the Board as John is a highly regarded and respected colleague who has worked with us for so many years and made such a valuable contribution. Saturday's events were a factor but frustration re the relationship with the owners and the difficulties this brings were a key factor I think in John's decision. He will be much missed and he, I know, feels it has been a privilege to serve CFC and work alongside the Board and fans for so many years. I think it's been a privilege for us all to have John on board. He'll be leaving with all our thanks and best wishes for the future. Hope he still comes to some of our games.

Cowden316 Posted May 5, 2015 Share Posted May 5, 2015 One last thing is I am sure many of you will agree that a couple of Hibs and Hearts fan's that I know commented how brilliant our programme is. As we are recognised for our programmes is this something we could perhaps sell online etc for those who just want to read the articles? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As we are recognised for our programmes is this something we could perhaps sell online etc for those who just want to read the articles? I would imagine the costs would far outweigh any profits.Who really wants to buy a programme of Cowden v Stenny online? Hearts and Hibs fans certainly won't, they are only interested in games involving their teams. Considering the vast sums of free information available on the net no one would stump up £2.50 to buy it on line. I can't remember the last time I bought an away programme and I imagine many fans are the same. Our programme is spectacular but it's not a money maker sadly.

NELLY Posted May 6, 2015 Share Posted May 6, 2015 Unfortunately wont make Thursday now due to work. Just hope even with a crap turnout the board dont think people dont care thats evidentally not the case. A full briefing would be good on the website or even P&B after Thursday.

Shandon Par Posted May 6, 2015 Share Posted May 6, 2015 Would groundsharing with us be an option to save you a few quid? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brazilianlex Posted May 6, 2015 Share Posted May 6, 2015 Would groundsharing with us be an option to save you a few quid? No, our esteemed owners would not allow that since they already bleed us dry for the honour of playing at Central Park. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Moonster Posted May 6, 2015 Share Posted May 6, 2015 Heard he did a good job with Dumbarton u20's so canny see why it would not be worth a go A mate told you this? Was your mate Colin Nish? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Moonster Posted May 6, 2015 Share Posted May 6, 2015 Scott Linton and Archie Campbell both released by Dumbarton. Two players that would be fantastic in league 1. Unlikely either will pick up a club higher but more likely to look closer to home. Both Linton and Campbell are away to Clyde. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jan Vojáček Posted May 6, 2015 Share Posted May 6, 2015 Both Linton and Campbell are away to Clyde. Linton off to Clyde too? Jesus. I'm sticking 40 quid on Lee Mair to join Clyde. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NotAFan Posted May 6, 2015 Share Posted May 6, 2015 U20s take on Berwick Rangers at Central Park on Thursday @ 8.00 If they can score a few it should confirm 2nd place in the league. A wee added incentive to get supporters along to the meeting maybe? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
