I understand this survey will be shared with the club but not why particular questions, positivity about Saandgard seems a funny one to ask given he has rescued us from these swindlers, why ask it? and isn't it fairly obvious what the response would be?
While it's fairly obvious to us, it's useful to have the statistic to wave in certain people's faces I assume.
about attending matches, I didn't buy a season ticket because - I missed the window - issues with Elliot - not much point with lockdown - the massive hike in prices for young and student fans in some areas - did prices reflect the drop in division?
so couldn't attend if I wanted to. Will Mr S be addressing some of the above issues I wonder? Some seem to have been lost in the pandemic mist and I will raise them if the fans forum returns.

re CAST membership or not etc could have been more questions, with c2500 members how is the £5 fee (£12500 a year) now justified assuming that is the number, needs a rethink perhaps? Membership was declining I believe before the near make or break crisis of the summer, shouldn't it be asking why?
From my understanding most trusts like trade unions membership increases in times of crisis, it would not be unsurprising if membership numbers decreased now we seem to be in good hands under a new owner. The membership fee of five pounds is very reasonable, price of a pint, in some pubs. The season ticket price/ownership issues obviously did not deter nearly five thousand people from purchasing, on whose behalf will be you raising these issues at future fans forums as you seem to be reluctant to inform people who & how many people you represent.

I agree with the re-think point. I'd be very happy to pay double, treble or more the current fee and still regard it as extremely good value.

No reason why that shouldn’t be an option, but are you saying the original point isn’t valid?

You made a number of points. The one about a re-think on membership fees is valid, and I've offered my opinion.

Cool, wasn’t sure. We did mull different levels of membership in my day. I’m sure they wouldn’t mind you paying whatever you wanted..
Done. Good luck. Appreciate this is a bit nitpicking but If I’m honest, I didn’t feel the questions related to the MK Dons match gave you an ability to mark on whether it was enjoyable or not, which I think would be a really interesting gauge. It was just simply focused on the logistics.
That's the VP questions fixed - sorry about that. Seems it went out of kilter when we added the Qs on Weds' match. Grateful if those affected can try again @stackitsteve @cafc999 @SporadicAddick

Agreed.
It needs to be £10 - regardless of the timely arrival of TS, I believe the Trust needs to build up a substantial sum as a 'fall back' should anything disastrous happen over the next 5-10 years.
Was always brought up being told to save something for a rainy day and the best time to do that is when the sun is shining.
16% thought that we will gain automatic promotion this season with 71% thinking the play-offs are more likely. 11% thought we will miss out narrowly and 0.5% predicted a bottom half finish. 1 person thought we would be relegated.
96% of respondents were White British. If we can capture the imagination of Black and Asian communities in our target areas then there must be a huge untapped base. Not easy for all sorts of reasons and we're probably no different to many clubs but it is a massive opportunity to continue to be worked on.

Found it ridiculous unenjoyable to try and make noise to support the boys when wearing a face covering.

Message me your full name and email address and I'll check.
I see that @golfaddick filled the survey in 😊
