I just posted the following in the poll thread, but thought it should maybe be in here as well................................
Rightio,
Just further on my post regarding the call from Paul Osborne.
He also added that the club plans to get large banners and signs made up that will be provided to the supporters Bay. He also mentioned pom poms :?. I think he meant those AFL style things which I reckon we can do without, but I won't focus on any neagtives atm.
He mentioned that if a Bay is situated on the side, the signs/banners etc... would/could inhibit the viewing lines of other fans. He also said that he believes we are very lucky at Parramatta to have such a great seated stadium, where a supporters bay can be provided that still provides a comfortable position.
I mentioned to him that our plan would probably be to now support any move of the club to set up the bay, with the proviso from our part that there will be ongoing communication with the club to make any adjustments/improvements for the following season, including looking at moving to a side bay if possible.
He also mentioned that he/the Board had met with a group of fans discussing this and other issues. That part I was unaware of and I would have liked that information to be shared on here. I'll see what I can find out tonight regarding this.
Lastly, I made it very very clear that I appreciated his efforts to get involved in this matter, and to personally take the time to give me a call.
He left me his mobile number and said that I could call him at any time.
It is such a pleasure to have such a wonderful person taking the reigns at the club now.
Suity
