This is a thread I was going to start, but you got in before me!
The targets of the club for next season include matters outside of its direct control. The ones I suggest are:
1. A willing and competent group of volunteers with at least one with travel agency professional experience, to plan a charter flight to every European away game. I believe we can achieve 1000 supporters if the price and travel times are right. This may involve a same-day return trip to facilitate people who have to get to work the following morning, no matter what condition they are in.
2. A fixtures policy that guarantees that no club has to bunch domestic and European fixtures together, like happened to us and Longford and Shels.
3. Related to the previous point, flexibility in the fixtures to prevent long gaps between games. No club should have to go for a full month without a game.
4. Referees that are not living within 100 miles of any club they referee. Import them if necessary from other countries. I suspect that Ryanair would step in to provide free or cheap seats, to cash in on the rising public popularity of the domestic league.
5. Payment for referees, to up the standard.
6. An injection for Dan Murray to give him a repeat dose of whatever he took before the game last night.
I realise that many of these idea require the Eircom League backroom tw@ts to listen to the CCFC club delegates. But I believe that no other club would want things to be otherwise if they were in the same position that we were in this season.
