New FAB

[jwarry]

I probably should know this as an H&V member for 20 years but are any of these people from H&V?

No. In fact there's no-one from anybody the forums/websites/blogs, which says something.

So who the hell are all these people? And how the fuck did they select them?

Pretty much mentions it in the article if you read it.

I suppose it does but it’s hardly representative is it.  Mr Calvin need to meet all fan groups before making such a decision about composition

[dave.woodhall]

They've handpicked a sanitised group to rubber-stamp whatever they say. Nobody should be surprised and nobody should be under any illusions.

He strikes me as a bit of a knob as well, but he's the only one on the old board who actually went public with some of the stuff that went on in those meetings (at least beyond the official minutes plus a bit of annotation).

Who?

[Legion]

MOMS?

[dekko]

Sorry, quote fail, I was taking about the MOMS bloke.

Surely if it’s called FAB we should have a Scott representing us.

[SaddVillan]

Names  and a paragraph on what they bring to the party in terms of experience, skills etc.

Not interested in how long theyve been going down or their favourite player.

Their biggest gripe might be informative.

You should send me from here. I'm very conciliatory and respectful of opinions that are wrong.

[dave.woodhall]

I should have said that I know Craig Hamilton as well - he was involved with the FSA many, many years ago and he's a decent cove.

It’s a weird body and not sure it helps or is needed.

The last lot didn’t seem to suit any purpose other then their own self importance and “in the know” credibility.

This lot now have a lot of green ticks next to whichever box they fill.

Neither lot seem to serve any purpose other than helping Villa fulfilling whatever criteria they need.

On reflection given the pointlessness of this board maybe this lot are more palatable than the self publicists?

Thanks. Nice to know what you really think.

The Fan Engagement Plan has been announced for 25/26

[London Villan]

Sounds positive and more accessible/visible than the last incarnation. How did the august meeting go?

[SaddVillan]

Next time the FAB meets club representatives, can they ask for an explanation as to why, against Young Boys and Bournemouth the tea/coffee/pie outlets in the Lower Doug Ellis stopped serving before half time was over?

We're desperate to raise revenues to meet the various financial models that affect our ability to spend on players, so why are we turning down money like this?

I know it's not a huge amount in the grand scheme, but as Asda keep telling us "Every little helps".
