Poor state of affairs if true 19:04 - Mar 15 with 20960 viewsrafc1977

Came across this link below on Facebook, I don't usually believe all I read & hear unless from source. But as this was posted by Mr Hicks himself I can only assume (without yet hearing any response from the club) that this is a very shoddy way to treat a long time employee & former player. Sorry if this has been covered elsewhere. I don't know Keith but as long as I've been supporting Dale he has been a stalwart of the community set up.

Twelve months ago I would have scoffed at the this idea but I’m gradually warming to it.
It’s not a quick fix though.
Let’s say a year for funding. Another year for planning permission etc.
You could be looking at an opening in 2028 or 2029 when some of us might not even be around!
And the club would still be losing money during that period.
The plusses are, at Kingsway although there may be other potential sites, the previously mentioned travel links and no residents to object!
Not many pubs in the area although there aren’t too many around Spotland!
It may lead to the reopening of the Kingsway Hotel!
As for capacity I think 6000 is too low. If the business plan still includes cup runs that wouldn’t be sufficient to maximum revenue from a plum tie.

In the light of this thread and in the context of the most entertaining home game for years, it's doubly frustrating that there doesn't seem to have been more effort to get people into the ground on matchdays and not any sort of rallying cry. This is obviously the most crucial period for the club in decades and we need to play all the cards we have in order to give ourselves a chance to survive.

The players put in a proper shift today and who knows, that effort might have led to 3 points with a few hundred more fans in the ground. Compare this with Crawley who've made a clear effort to get the whole town behind them and have won their last two games as a result.

Thank you to those who have already indicated that they’d be supportive of a supporters meeting with the Trust. To update, there were some really positive discussions amongst fans today who’d like to use such an opportunity so the the Trust can engage with fans in a different way and look at areas of uncertainty that they could then take forward on the behalf of members.

It’s not coming from a negative standpoint, more what can be established in terms of issues that supporters have which can be represented to help the club. This is not about creating division, whinging or shouting the odds, it’s about ensuring all fans have a better understanding of their football club.

For those only seeing this for the first time, if you’re in favour of a meeting for Trust members at a future game (Walsall on Good Friday has been suggested and looks a good idea), please reply YES.

From there, we can then look at topics for discussion to create a structure for the meeting should this move forwards.

As a new member to this forum -for the purpose of voting on this idea - and not wanting to interfere at all in its' processes (and also not at all social media engaging),might it be worth creating a separate thread so that the Title attracts more attention to this suggestion?
