Will there be an interpreter present??

Very good idea and hopefully it's a good turnout.

Why Aye Ian Marra! Geet Canny as owt! Ha'way the Darts

Looking forward to it

Unfortunately won't be able to attend. Will be sending my question in via the form.

Hopefully it's a very productive and informative evening, I'm sure it will be as whenever Dowse speaks about the club and his ideas he always comes across well.

I look forward to reading all of the responses wherever they become available.

This is something we haven't had the last few years, so I'm happy this is going ahead.

I hope Dowse takes a little responsibility for our below par performances this season? And doesn’t just throw the players under the bus, as is his want!!

How was it for those that attended?

There was probably about 40 - 50 in attendance at a guess as it followed straight after the clubs AGM meeting which a few people knew absolutely nothing about and hadn’t received any paperwork via post or email even though they are share holders.

The managers meeting itself seemed to go quite well with both Dowse & TB in good humour. All questions that got put to Dowse got answered openly & honestly without any hesitation along with Tony chipping in with some bits as well as Steve Irving.

One of the media guys put forward some questions from those that couldn’t make it which I’m sure will get posted at some point.

When asked about promotion Dowse confirmed that he wants it and it would mean that we would have won something if it happens.
Steve Irving then confirmed that the board were also fully behind going for promotion this season and recognised that we could not afford to go full time or pay the high wages that most clubs do in the league above and Dowse felt that we could attract players and build a good squad ready for next season whichever league we find ourselves in.

Some very good and honest answers from Dowse.

Wasn’t my question (that I submitted electronically) asked about Dan Roberts??

It was asked, I think it was actually one of the first questions asked but it just hasn’t been shown.
From what I’ve seen in the clips any questions regarding players or at least specific players didn’t get shown at all.

Anybody???????

To be honest I couldn’t hear Dowse properly to start with as the mic he was using was very echoey in the bar.
From what I recall I think he said that Danny is a good player but he just wasn’t pushing enough for a place in the team and wasn’t any better than what we already had. It was better for him to be regularly playing on loan than just sitting on the bench at best.
He was constantly being watched though and is still in Dowse’s plans & can be recalled if needed.

Please don’t quote me though as others possibly heard better than me as I was near the back.

Not sure if anyone else that was there will post more on the subject or not. As I said earlier a lot of the questions regarding players & Dowse’s answers haven’t been released.

Thanks very much mate

Was there anything on the youth ticketing policy
