As an organiser heres my honest open view on tonight's meeting..
Sadly the attendance was very poor with about 20 in attendance... the meeting itself if im honest lacked in structure but it was always a case of this meeting being about gauging some feeling getting ideas and getting people on board... we have gained the start of a team of 'foot soldiers' to help promote BRISA at games now so small progress, we had agreement on the 4 aims that we set out as campaigns/aims as per the website ... there was good talk and some great info from people with invaluable ideas and knowledge. .. we need a further better attended meeting in the future and we need to choose an offical head team of people in defined roles such as a chairman,secretary and treasurer. .. anyone interested in this roles or to offer more help with things such as leafleting on matchdays please contact bristolroversisa@gmail.com
Disappointing start in some ways but small steps will lead to bigger better things and we will take this on... over 300 members spread far and wide but we need more to turn up at these things.. however we had around 40 people contact us to explain why they couldnt attend this time so hopefully our next meeting will be better attended and also we will have a firmer structure. . I must say thanks to those that came along and gave me personally much food for thought and a good nudge in the direction this association needs to take and for your offers of advice and knowledge that was brought to the meeting ... if nothing else im sure people found some of the talk insightful ... it was slightly disappointing but I believe in the principles of BRISA and believe we can help bring change ... we just need a bit more active influence from members.. a tiny step tonight... small steps next leading to big things in good time
Cheers
Tom
