Fair shout as every soccer thread is being changed into ****ty issues, but for us to keep this thread about committee issues you'll need a mod and we dont have one.
we can just ask a mod to keep track of it if it gets put of hand say 4 people say they want the thread gone he can delete it,
commitee issue here
if asked (as i have already) about the article, just tell them spilane is a dope and the three resignations were all family, one left the others folowed sticking together, and f***ing the club over by giving statements to that w***** spillane, he hates rams why would any fan listen to him
thats my one and ony comment about the subject was trying to stay away form it but had to say it sorry

y cant we talk about it???????? is it better to shove it under the rug and hope it never gets out? there is something up in the club for all those to resign.. if there is no explanation i think there should be an EGM.. it has everything to with football in my opinion we picked these people less than 9 months ago and they cant even stay in their positions for the time they promised to serve? now there must be an explation for this..
Fair comment in one sense, but as you say we picked them to serve us, and they resign without filling full term, until they reveal full reasons for resignations i dont think they have a leg to stand on personally, unless its personal issues which IMO opinion isnt proper either.Quote:

It cant be about football IMO has to be personal or off field subjects! Which is probably for EGM or AGM.
Can I try to correct (or maybe Im wrong here) what seems to be an never ending mis-conception here.Quote:

Their main function is to help or assist in making sure that the club actually can field 1 or more teams (presently caters for about 15 teams) in football and has the finance arranged to do that.
Now Im not saying everything or every decision they make, I personally agree with, but the amount of abuse and negative comment these people get is beyond belief and that goes for new ramblers and old MSL ramblers or whoever. It seems to me that for every person willing to stand up and volunteeer for committee work that theres abour four who are willing to complain about how its done.
For once lets get behind the committee whether its the old or the new or whoever and support our team. If yu want to be where Drogheda are then thats what is needed 100% support. Then If you think it could be done better, get enough people interested by letting them know your ideas to move the club ahead and Im sure you will get elected at agm. God help ye then though (continue at start)
well in theory they do serve us.... the committee are there to run the club.. and the members own the club so they serve us afterall it is us who put them in and keep them there if we think they are doing a proper job.....
also i have no problem with the current committee i just feel that the people who resigned should make a public statement as to why they jumped ship.
Who owns the club? Every supporter on the terrace?Quote:

the committe are only guardians of the club and therefore if they assume aposition in the club whether they are giving their time freely etc they still have an obligation to the fans to keep the goings of the club available to the fans and if an EGM is called they will have to answer questions put forward by the members
the more i thinkabout it the only real way to clear this situation up is to have a EGM let everyone with an issue air it and clear this up once and for all:mad:
Clear what up though? All this situation has arisen from the recent resignations, and yesterdays very 'old news' article by Spillage. I refuse to accept that these people were forced out, actually the word is, allbeit unofficial, that these people left of their own accord. We're all aware that they gave their valuable time to the club etc etc, and they should be commended for that, however, they will indeed be replaced and life will go on once again. At this particular moment in time it's what happens on the field is of importance. Is there really a need to call an EGM? I don't really think so, but I'm open to correction. These resignations are over a week old and the Club hasn't fallen apart yet!! A big turn out is what's needed against Athlone on Saturday and, if there is one, then that'll show the support the team, the committee and the club have from the people of Cobh.Quote:

Any comments I make or have made regarding this petty situation are my own views and no-one is obliged to agree with them. Sad fact is though that comments like your pervious one usually put people off responding to a serious thread. If you have something to say regarding the thread topic then just say it rather than feeing the urge to have a jibe at another supporter. Stick to the topic and keep the personal ****e out of it.
****e is reserved for those who think about it a lot and if you can't contain yourself then theres always the jacks................ta ta!
Ah now we have it...it aint the people of Cobh as you say but the members. Its only the members who the committee are accountable to (or serve as it was put earlier) Now are all the people who would like things done differently members cause if not they have no say over nothing or no stake or say in the club.Quote:

all members are season tkt holders who elect the committe at the AGM..anyone can become a season tkt holder if they pay in time (altho from what i hear the rules can be bent)
if your not a member you dont have a say in the running of the club which i have to agree with..
Im not a member of the GAA club so i dont have a say there even tho i may not agree with whats going on up there..
Exactly, well put and spot on.Quote:

Of course supporters play a big part in that club income as without this the club would fold....so lets get away from thinking that the committee owe us all a big debt of gratitute for allowing them to serve us and lets support them if possible , no matter which gang are in, and the club will benefit tremendously if all have that approach.
jesus man you jump the gun every time, expect comments like that here. He was hes agreeing with you. More and likely isnt personal because your new so he is he highly unlikely he knows who you are! And you for him to id say.Quote:

lets assume thats theres 200 people that are season tkt holders.. if we average a crowd of 600... it maybe more but i think not by alot.. thats 400 paying customers......... lets say 50 of these are kids.....(free entry) and 100 are students thats 100 at a 10 euro (if im right havent seen price as im a season tkt holder im basing it on away games), thats a 1000 euro, and then we have the match sponser which i guess get 20 tkts too the game and im guessing that players prob get their families in free(????? guess) so ill say thats another 30 people in... so that leaves 200 adults paying full price so 200x15 3000 euro..... and thats every 2 weeks.... if we have 2 weeks on the road thats 4000 euro to pay a wage bill of 2000 every week...
now this is not includeing poperating cost which incluse paying electricty tax or any other fees,
my point being is that we have a very good business man running the bar but for what??? throwing it up in the air should we appoint a committee member to run the bar? no politcal agenda here but if we set aside a position on the committee (payed of course, but not as much as now) to run the bar would it be better...
on the sponseship side i cannot fault the committee they have brought goodyear an some other new faces on board.....
and also i do support the committee but they do in some way owe us for putting the running of the clubs in their hands... they owe us the decency to serve their allocated term or give an explanation.. but if they were forced out or felt they were under attack from a coup fair enough but why not hold their groundQuote:

but the revenue is up since we hired the bar manager, from the last meeting i was at anyway, well see at the end of this year,
as for matches im quiet sure season tickets holder and freebies arent given in the attendances, 100 season ticket holder by the way, attendance is judged by the amount of tickets sold outside the ground for entry not the clock on the turnstiles, i am guessing this is the way, id say marco would have to verify this, ive heard attenddances of 900 when there is blatantly over 1000 at the game, i think anyway, any one else think the same, think dundalk and shels,
revenue is up but profits are down from what i hear.... season tkts holders are included in gate i assume what happens if ever home supporter was a season tkt holder and they turned up would the attandance figures read 40????????? (40 away supports)
Good luck and enjoy. I can't be bothered. Some people just don't get it. I'm back to the other forum, where at least it does it's bit to advertise, support and promote the Ramblers in a positive way.
The above quote was made here the other day, and you know what, I totally agree with it because I've experienced it first hand. With attitudes like these then we're in trouble. I've done my bit. Bought family ticket. Offered advise and design in my field. Was taking out a billboard (even though was told that I'd have to go up and measure it up myself) and looking at possible match sponsorship........and have calculated that in the past four weeks I've put approx 600euro over the bar.........but hey......why should I bother at all!! I've a business to run, allbeit small, but at least I enjoy it which is more than I can say for some of the ****e posted here since the 'Ramblers3' resignations rubbish. At least I can take pride in the fact that I tried to contribute something positive toward the club as a whole!!Quote:
Which leads me to my next point, certain people raise eyebrows and pass snarly comments when new people come to support the club, like i know one or two people who were chattin in bar after and were told your only here cause were winning, or cause your friend signed, your not a real supporter lark.
well if you think sweeping it under the carpet is the way to go....Quote:

Supporters PLAY a BIG PART in keeping the club running.
ie
Supporters match day entrance fees
Supporters sponsoring signs, players etc
Supporters purchasing half time prize draw tickets
Supporters purchasing 4 number tickets
Supporters purchasing 800 draw tickets
Supporters purchasing Grand prize draw tickets
Supporters money over the bar after a game
I could go on and on........
Ye'd want to relax a small bit lads. Everybody is getting a little too carried away over nothing really and i'd expect better out of teenagers, never mind adults.
PM each other if you want to bitch to anyone and keep the thread on topic about committee issues.
It's a combination of bothQuote:
