Who know's what's happening at the club?
They are quick to ask for our help when the club is in need!
Do not even repond to someone who wants to give money to the club, could help Coley get in some players E.g Buy Charnock, and a couple of other players. I was looking foward to going to my first end of season party, to meet other fans and players, Guess i'll have to wait to next year.

I think it is unlikely there will be one next year unless it is organised by someone else or another group, although only stating that from a personal point of view and not of everyone in the OSC

I will just look into making it a fun day out for all the family and see if i can sort out some sort of entertainment, but i know i will be on a tight budget.

Now with response to whether or not i work here at the club. I do 2 days minimum a week in the commercial & marketing department alongside David & Dan, this is my free time when not studying. But it does coincide with my study so its all good. Under a ot of pressure but the best job i have ever had by far :)

this was posted in the "good marketing idea" thread, post 35 dated 31-3-09

Please note in no way am I pointing a finger at Toni/lancashirelassz

just wanted to make a point

I'm really sorry to hear of the problems. Cashy has summed it up.

For the life of me, I cannot understand why the second group to book was not asked to make alternative arrangements. It really does seem like an attack on the OSC.

Its not often I read every post on a thread, but I have on this one. There does seem to be something of an underlying current of incompetence within the club, you just don't run a business like this, after all the fans are the customers when all's said and don't, and with this coming on the back of the betting debacle, no wonder you lads and lass are, well to say the least, are just a tad upset

I suggest we dress up as super villains and stand at the door...

Then whenever any 30th Birthday patrons come by, we all go RAAARRRGH!

Re: urgent question re: Sat night!!!!
 
Why is everyone assuming that the OSC need to be displaced? Surely, if the 30 party was last to be booked, then it is the club's responsibility to sort it out by telling them that, due to an oversight, there has been a double booking and that they can no longer be accommodated. Stick to your guns, Lesley, it's the club's problem, not yours, so why should you help them to sort it out?

that sums up what my opinion is.

Re: urgent question re: Sat night!!!!
 
Just an update:

After talking to a few osc members, reading what has been put on here and alot of heart searching I have decided as Chair of the supporters club (maybe my final action) that if it cannot be held in the clubhouse this event will be cancelled and the trophies presented after the match as mentioned before.

It is then up to individuals whether they decide to still meet up for drinks in the Crown.

I decided on this action due to as others have pointed out, we did book the room first and the Crown is not a suitable venue for a do that includes children (licencing laws of the pub).

I have notified Rob Heys of this decision and he is still trying to see what can be done. I feel for the people who have booked their 30th birthday do but I think they will probably get fed up of the people coming in thinking it is the end of season do as it will prob not be possible to advise everyone that it has been cancelled.

PLEASE NOTE THAT AT THE TIME OF THIS POST, THIS EVENT IS NOT OFFICIALLY CANCELLED BUT I WILL LET YOU KNOW WHEN A FINAL DECISION BY THE CLUB HAS BEEN MADE

Re: urgent question re: Sat night!!!!
 
Cant agree more Lesley, think that has put it firmly with the club also to the idea that if it is indeed cancelled to presenting players after the match, no one gets a drink & we all walk out to the oaklea for a drinkies [whom have been a supporter as a business of the osc & have been more than hospitable for meetings with the exhibition & to fans for matches without any problem at all & welcomed warmly]. Hit where it hurts im afraid, that is the only way to get the seriousness of the issue towards fans highlighted big style to the club. Also want to make it known to the players whom win or not that the actions we take isnt a result of them or management duo concerned but the incompetant people behind the fiasco! We will celebrate the team asfc success to safety but not the workings of the club as a business/Google Page Ranking/customer relations etc. Just my thoughts on the subject, till club gets back to u lesley & hope for a better response to change my mind.

Not a bad solution if all else fails... :):)

sounds good to me Lesley.

If the event is cancelled then I (and someone else) will perform a separate draw for the web sponsored shirts - notification will be on here.

It's beyond a joke to be honest.

Re: urgent question re: Sat night!!!!
 
its sad it has come to this, the only way to go though.IMHO.:(

Sparkologist 22-04-2009 12:03

Re: urgent question re: Sat night!!!!
 
Just a question...

Has anyone from within the club had the honesty and integrity to confess to being the root cause of this gross incompetence and disregard of its loyal customer base?
