So what is the burning question to ask at the AGM !!

Recommended Posts

I can think of a few..

Where’s all the profit gone?

Why have we needed loans when getting Prem tv money?

Will Attanasio have an option to buy out Delia?

Why are we charging the 13th highest price for a season ticket in the country whilst in the 2nd division?

Why is there no accountability for higher ups when they make mistakes such as the BK8 fiasco?

Why has the club stopped giving access to local media?

Why is our sporting director allowed to climb mountains in transfer windows?

It's in the accounts.

Being in the Premier league is expensive.

Probably.

Supply & demand

There is.

They have access, they are at all of the press conferences.

He knows when he isn't busy and he can take time off.

Speaking of accountability for higher-ups, didn't Ben Kensell walk due to the BK8 fiasco?

Can we ask why we haven't recruited a right winger since Patrick Roberts in 2019? 🙃

The club's line is that it wasn't due to the BK8 fiasco, he was leaving anyway to pursue new opportunities. Can't find anything from the club's official channels, but this is how it was reported by ITV. He left Norwich on June 16 last year, and was appointed as chief exec by Hibernian six weeks later (July 27).

An executive below Kensell’s level did leave very soon after the fiasco was uncovered.

How about, where do babies come from?

Considering that close to half of kids are unplanned or inadequately planned, according to Guttmacher Institute research, then the answer to that is "literally, dumb f-uckers".

Are you referring to Ben Tunnell, or someone else? I think the official line was that Ben Tunnell also chose to leave (he joined Eleven Sports Media very soon afterwards), but given the timing I can understand a level of cynicism surrounding that announcement, whatever the reality.

I do hope the problem of luke warm sausage rolls has been resolved.

Maybe you can warm them up with a burning question?....

Well who'd have thought that the reason we have the 13th highest prices for season tickets in the Country is down to supply and demand?....

How soon can we expect a change in ownership at the club and/or when will there be additional investment in the team?

Is that right? That is crazy. They go up at all and I think they'll see a lot give up

We could alternatively make that the perishing question.

Are the current Board members able to recite, line by line, the commitments given to shareholders in the 1998 Annual Report? 😜

I agree!

As a stats man myself, I always drew up a spreadsheet with potential cash flow scenarios together with a risk analysis based on xC (expected conceptions based upon the stage of my wife's menstrual cycle) before engaging in a potentially procreative act.

Check out the stats on the proportion of men who don't wear condoms. It speaks volumes. (Anyway, that's a digression).
