I'm sure this has been mentioned before Rob, but is there a possibility that they can change the online network/ticketing system so that you can see how many bonus points each person has in your network? Would make things so much easier when purchasing for multiple people.

Mark Motley found the answer in Minutes from the January meeting this year. It is a software issue. Seatgeek are the ticketing agency Boro use.

Visibility of priority points for those in your network
Lee Fryett (MFC) - advised that he had have pushed this question over to Seatgeek and it is going to be looked at. LF advised he would chase this, and the club also feel this would be beneficial.

These comments? " I've heard of people buying season tickets there for kids too young to attend the games yet just so they know they've got them in a couple if seasons time. They are only doing this because of the shortage."

1. Are there tickets available to buy on the day? If so, why were there no season tickets available in this area?

2. Assuming they are available, can these be either made available online or instructions on how you do purchase these tickets be clearly visible online? It does not even appear that this area exists on the ticketing website.

3. Would they consider extending the GRFZ ticket pricing to other areas of the stadium. This has been successful at other clubs. Boro's ticket pricing for juniors is by far the most expensive in the Championship currently.

OK - sorry I didn't scroll back far enough.
Incidentally I did think they had extended the GRFZ this season around into the corner of the North Stand.

This is the problem. It may well have. But it doesn't tell you this anywhere on the website. Or at least I can't seem to see it so it's not obvious.

I cant believe it's not shown on the stadium plan.

It's like a secret society
 
1. Re-design of the current badge.

The consensus (from what i can gather) is that it's widely disliked. There was no consultation with the fans. It would be nice if we could put something to the fans in time for our 150 anniversary season but we would need to start raising that issue with the club sooner rather than later which leads me onto my next point...

2. Do the club have any plans to celebrate the 150 year anniversary?
 
1. Make sponsor less shirts available.. all talk of it being harmful to U18s and addicts seems to have fallen on deaf ears.

2. Change our warm up shirt to something more meaningful i.e by making our anti racist position more visible.

I don't know why the players are allowed in schools in training gear with betting logos on. That's something they should stop doing. Seems to be in breach of some laws surely?

I find it odd that in the UK you can't have a bookmaker in the same premises as a licensed bar. So pubs can't have a boomaker incorporated within the pub. Yet this seems to totally overlooked within football concourses.

It is also hypocritical that casinos can serve alcohol to people at their tables nevermind just on the same premises.

The whole gambling regulations need overhauling in the UK
 
I might have mentioned it before. With the digital rollout will we get E-match tickets in the near future?

I can buy tickets for Non league sides and get them sent to my phone but if I buy a Boro match ticket I have to wait for the post.

aparantly printing 'zero harm' on a t-shirt every now and then does the trick 'gamble sensibly' 'know your limits' 'stop when the bailiffs come round you've lost your job, your wife has left you,, just stop for christ's sake.. £20 free bet"

Do you mean home or away - if away then the answer is probably no as it is out of our hands.

Nothing on our Gambling Sponsor.. Nothing

Please can you ask an AOB on the players displaying gambling logos when visiting schools? The under age groups play with Host & Stay logo. I think when visiting kids the senior players should do the same.
