i agree with you i thought the footage of player payin fines was class and at the end of the season the person that pays the most fines has to do a forefit ot something along the lines of that - be good to see who gets fined they dont have to show how much they have to pay but just things like that! how about a shirt signing after the match the players go in the club bar and you can get your shirt signed by them or even pictures! even though they are low league players there will be juinor fans that want to be like them! the club should a do a questions and answer sheet, you download a list of questions from the club website, say like asking! what more information could go into the programme etc and people answer and email them back that way the club are getting to know what the fans want! what the fans dis-like etc

Having read through the posts several times and the majority I do agree with whilst also understanding the Club side to a degree, It is a very fine line to get the balance right on staffing etc. on limited budgets, but as people have said over & over again the Website is the key to so many things.

Whether that be fans looking to see the latest news, the latest offers or goodies available in the Store, companies who may be looking to see what is on offer for perhaps sponsoring a game etc.

It is key to so many things and income streams but at the moment is probably being used for none or at the very best to it's minimum effect

QED!!

Hopefully the more general issues which I have raised will be considered worthy of discussion within the club.

As always, though, thanks for your efforts, Southernred, in trying present ASFC to us in this forum.

It's time the web was updated as the only time i find anything out is from you fellow members of the forum,as for the webmaster does it really work.I e;mailed a photo of me and grimps wearing our accy shirts outside bridlington towns ground about 5 months ago but it never even got on the list.So whats the use of contributing anything if it gets ignored,it seems as though it's right what other people say on here that only money making things appear on the main web site.To be honest it's a shame when the same old stuff is on the main page,it's time it was improved for the better,so come on accy lets have regular news ad updates on the site.A ND HAPPY NEW YEAR TO ALL AT ASFC AND ALL ON THE FORUM'

ACCY TILL I DIE.

I posted up a little while ago about having perhaps a fans page in the Programme it is still something I would like to include.

If anybody has any pictures of themselves or somebody they would like to perhaps pass a message on to eg Happy Birthday, Well Done on Passing Your Driving Test or Exams or just an hello to everybody.

It does not have to include a picture just perhaps a memory of your first game you attended?

If you would like a mention in an upcoming programme please feel free to email me at [email protected]

Maybe if anybody is interested could also do a few questions & answers something along the lines of:

Name

First Stanley Game Attended?

Favourite Current Stanley Player & why?

Favourite All Time Player & why?

Best Away Ground Visited?

What have been your best Stanley memories & Why?

Again please feel free to contact me

Snap! Same thing happened to me. I risked hypothermia to pose in my Stanley shirt on the summit of Roseberry Topping before the Darlo game, but never got any acknowledgement for my e-mail with attachment.

It's interesting to read some of the comments on this thread, as a general air of alienation seems to permeate through it.

I posted months ago about the dangers of alienating the fan-base, especially the loyal few. It seems as though it hasn't got any better and I know that I personally have little interest in the club as a whole. I enjoy going to the games and the social aspects of that, but my general interest in the club has waned to an all time low.

When that happens amongst the Die Hard supporters like yourself TM, it becomes very frightening indeed, especially within the lower division clubs, its very easy for dissatisfied supporters to go elsewhere these days with so much footy on the box, and the actual cost of supporting a club is getting more expensive every season. No club can afford to alienate its true support, its the thin end of the wedge and a recipe for disaster

I wonder how many players we would not be able to sign should the club put online information on the pitch inspection at Rochdale.

MCR ADIM · 02-01-2009, 15:32

It must run into the hundreds but I did hear because of the money saved by not updating the website we are getting Torres on loan to prove his fitness.
