7071 at the last count but numbers may decrease if TM tickets don't arrive for tomorrow Seriously the PC has twice as many members than s/t holders, I do find that hard to believe, probably 71 is an exaggerated number? Whoosh. gaschat.co.uk/thread/18393/yesterdays-attendance?page=1

People are gonna stop supporting coz they cant have a special room? I was going to start bringing my grand children along, their very young and won't watch a match for 90mins so thought it would be somewhere to take them when they get restless, won't be able to now, so that is two lost at a time when we need to start bringing more youngsters in, so it is important that supporters are treated properly and kids encouraged to go to games. I probably won't bother myself either. looking down on people doesnt help

I'd welcome wertongas' answer, as the rank and file supporter has no idea how many people are affected by the President's Club no longer having access to the Dunford Lounge.
Wertongas - how many members are there of the President's Club?

Obviously don't know much about the club, they have draws each game money raised goes towards funding for youth teams, before lock down kit was purchased for our youth teams. Also have a bit of money invested in the club and have raised money for ground improvements in the past. How many members does the President's Club have nowadays? Maybe Fanatical/Know-all could answer this time. A question he has continually dodged on the other forum

We managed perfectly well with the South Stand. Welcome to the real world. After all the sh** Knowall has wrote about the AQs on here it's hardly shocking news.

How many members?

Think I will stop winding people up, saying that facility at the ground have improved but are still poor and rooms like the Dunford lounge should be open for fans to use, not just the privileged few on the board. (room now being used as a board room). As Hugo the Elder said I could use the South stand but unfortunately my season ticket is in the West stand.

When they have the fund raising draw which President club members enter, I think there is about 200 enter each month.

I'd also welcome your thoughts on why you think Rovers are no longer a "Family Club"?

So how are people in the boxes getting their drinks before, at halftime and full-time if that bar is closed? Did not know people in the West stand seats on the level below were allowed to go up the stairs and use the Dunford bar.

It was a wind up, we are family club, I was fed up with people having a go so I said things I new would get a reaction from . The club tries it's best but the family tent is poor, I offered to pay towards having a proper family stand where the tent is, but the club said it would need planning permission, it would not have been big, but would have been better than the tent, the seats would have been in blue and white Quarters with artwork depicting some of our players around back and sides. I also offered to pay for proper toilets at the away end, even picked out the block for delivery but was told club didn't want to pay to connect up the electric and water. So I gave up and gave the money to homeless charities at Christmas, I found homes for them to live in and hopefully get there feet back on the ground.

I was in the Presidents Club years ago, proper prawn sandwich brigade who thought they were better than everyone else. Parking at the ground was handy though!
