I would like to know if they feel the performance off the pitch has been more or less inconsistent than the performance on it.

Can you ask them when they are going to start refitting the club shop? Been empty and ready for work to start for a while now. When will the builders move in?

How many of the companies/individuals at the Shard kit launch have put in sponsorship this season?

Can I ask - I read in a recent programme that we would get to see some exciting plans for the ground development in November - is this still due to happen - will there be a media launch of this - will there be a display of potential plans so that everyone can see what is planned?

Another question. Can the official website be abandoned (if it is actually under a very restrictive update contract) and a new, more user friendly and visually appealing (that massive banner is a complete pain in the arse) website be implemented asap?
Another question. Can our in-ground catering be brought up above the standard of 'embarrassing'?
Another question. Can we not have cloud wi-fi available in the ground?
Another question. Is it accepted that we need to attract players to take us forward in to the league now and not in 3-4 seasons of 'consolidation'? We need the players first, get them to gel and then we can push on. Bogle being a good example.

Can the new look ground and fan experience concept celebrate things that Barrow has to offer ? Local beers / pies - the tent with tbings in it - local bands / pre match entertainment /TVs / tables and chairs / maybe a quiet area of the bar where you can get a pot of tea

Can you ask him please

We had new toilets, they have now gone
We had a tent, it's gone
They had a bottle bar in the bar, that's gone.

Why evertime that something is done to improve things for fans does it get taken away.

I have a question for the Trust. Are you going to hold a meeting so we know who is going to be the Travel Rep now Stu has resigned as the other one, Chris, works shifts so won't be available on a regular basis? Do they have to be proposed and seconded for this position?
They have been run mainly this season by Tony Lewis who is unelected but has done a brilliant job raising £300 through raffles and quizzes on the coaches.

Apologies for slightly hacking the topic and I could be wrong but I'd imagine the tent has gone as its not needed as the crowds have dropped. If we had the crowd we had v Dover every week I imagine it would still be there

Can you ask them what happened to the guy who always used to shout " COME ON YE BARROOOOOOOOW" from the middle of the pop side?

Why did none of the team celebrate Symingtons goal?
Get some Greens pies in.

Paul Casson wrote:The primary mission of Barrow AFC is to be an important pillar of the greater Furness community.

The team, both on and off the field should embody all that is excellent in the Area.

The club should provide value in all its operations, be transparent in its dealings and be a source of inspiration to all, but especially the community’s youth.

It should be such a source of local pride, all should aspire to Bleed Blue.

Paul Casson – Barrow Owner
The clubs vision there.

How come the club hasn't "provided value" in its commercial set up? Is this aspect of the club something to be proud of at the moment?

Transparent with its dealings? How come there still hasnt been any official comment in the Darren Edmondson Sexism Evening Mail Double Standards Saga?

Does the above vision need updating?
