Our club never really seem to do stuff like this, I do recall a commercial ideas meeting a few years back which I attended but other than that it always seems to be internal people involved.

I'm struggling to find any arguments for why this sort of meeting shouldn't happen at CTFC. Apart from taking a little bit of people's time and energy, I can only see positives in doing it; positives for the Club and positives for the fans. It gives Neil, Simon and others the opportunity to outline, within the bounds of commercial confidentiality, where the club sits, its ambitions and the restraints on those ambitions; and it gives the fans opportunities openly to ask questions, and make suggestions across a wide range of topics.... instead of chuntering on about them on this Forum as many of us do . It can only contribute to better mutual understanding and, who knows, some new energy and opportunities for others to contribute to the Club .. in however modest a way. I don't think it need be tokenistic at all, as long as everyone is realistic in their expectations and positive about its purpose. It will die a death if it just becomes a MoanFest from us or an Over-Defensive exercise by the Club. It does, though, require a really good fan turn-out... not just 3 old men and a whippet.
Bring it on!!
