James Grahams ‘the bye round’ podcast on YouTube this week has Jason Demetriou on. I’ve not seen it yet but I know there’s a fair bit about being at Wakey etc. With him being over a couple of weeks ago and meeting up with MA I’m sure he’ll of passed on some wisdom.

He's offered us Cam Murray and Latrell Mitchell.

I think Al Murray and Phil Mitchell would be more likely.

Al Murray has got the build

Why did we not arrange an audience with night, I am sure it would have generated much needed income.

Because the directors are incredibly busy! Apart from general recruiting and the running of a club, we are building a Stadium and have at least three other major projects on the go that I know of alone.

All our directors are unpaid and have lives outside of the club, so a bit of leeway, great though it would be we can't have an Audience with for every signing we make.

We have a marketing department apparently, I would of thought they would be able to organise this. It sounds like that anyone wishing to go to the toilet at the club needs to seek the permission of the directors.
I would say that JD would have a strong following at the club and let’s face it he has an interesting rugby career but they obviously chose to miss an obvious money making opportunity, I guess we don’t need it.

Perhaps JD had a full diary.
Always the club's fault.

Yeah of course they do. You're just moaning for the sake of it as usual.

No but we like to quote how poor we are but this would have generated interest from the supporters and earned some funds but I guess we go with too busy to save face. It would appear that one of the directors managed an audience with him despite being so busy.

Firstly, why are you asking us. Are you thinking someone on here has JDs diary?
2 he's already given his time for Heritage podcast
3 how do you know they didn't try?
4 how do you know JD didn't have time?

I really don't understand why you feel the need to have a little strop at the club at every opportunity. There is no basis to your point.

This Marketing department. I believe it's basically one guy, who I suspect doesn't want to be at work until ten at night every time we sign a player.

Were it Cameron Munster then maybe you'd have a point.

I was merely suggesting a moneymaking opportunity that also increased the club’s profile with supporters because based on the majority of posts we have no money.
If we tried fine but if we didn’t then a opportunity lost.
The lack of a proper marketing department is nothing to be proud of, how many times did we fail to promote our games last season.

Well very shortly my friend you'll have your chance to do something about it - I'll bet my house on it that you don't take up either opportunity.

I've been working solid on a few schemes over the last six week, all of which will hopefully make money and allow fans more of a say in the club.

I'm sure you'll slag it all off, mainly because you'll have to put up or shut up.

You weren't suggesting. You very clearly said "they chose to miss the opportunity"

So I ask again. Why do you feel the need to have a dig at the club?

If you are giving up your house then I think it might be worth the investment or was that one of your pointless statements. I look forward to your money making ideas in your capacity as the unofficial marketing guru.
I don’t tend to slag off ideas, take your supporter funded mail drop, I didn’t donate because I thought it was pointless based on statistics for this type of advertising.

Nah I think he's just getting into panto mode again, he's played Ebeneezer for that long it's second nature to him.

Think you're being extremely harsh on Ebeneezer tbh.

They are not my ideas (well one is), I'm just a helper, again you over estimate my importance.

Anything positive about the new signing ?????

Nope. Nothing. Why is that Scarlet?

Because I could be accused of derailing this topic however I agree he is an excellent signing.

You could have just put it on the thread where everyone us talking about him.
But good to know.

Very enjoyable listen
