What improvements do we want in Hal 4

[thanman]

1. Refs replaced with robots
2. If the technology for #1 is not available, replace the refs with blind people and their dogs
3. No more Sunday games
4. Fix the finals ticketing system
5. NO MORE SUNDAY GAMES (and if anyone says "there will be no more sunday games, but there will also be no LESS sunday games.... )

if #1 and 2 aren't available seperately - combine them

Wish list for V4????

1) Aloisi's knee goes 10 mins into his 1st game for Lowy FC

2) Jets to lose Griffiths,Bridge,Durante,North and all the other players Con underpays and finish 10th

3) No more Sunday games ever

Yep I like those three alot and add,


Shields and Breeze both get the much needed eye surgery or both get hit by mack trucks before the season starts

We defy the odds and take the double

We get a great performing marquee that fills the stadium every week

Marja stays fit all season and wins the golden boot

 

[bjw]

1) Mrdja to stay fit, score between 13-15 goals
2) Win both premiership and final
3) Beat Newcastle and Sydney each time we play them
4) Bays 15/16/17 to all stand and chant each match
5) Beat Sydney the major semi- then beat the jets in the Grand Final
6) Matty Simon to score his first goal- preferably to win a Derby.
7) NOO MORE SUNDAY GAMES, all saturday, friday night games- builds much better atmosphere.

Thats about it

Sunday games are not going anywhere. I would like to see a break down in fox rating for different teams on different days.

Personally i would assume CC would get some of the lowest ratings, so saturday night would be best for mariners games

1 - New referees - with the heads of the former referees to be placed on pikes around the ground as a warning to the new ones.
2 - Better half time entertainment.
3 - Women's A league to be played prior to mens game
4 - CC general crowds grow more vocal, learn chants beside 3 clap & don't mind standing for at least "a bit"
5 - A walk on mariners Anthem
6 - Improved security in terms of people skills and not ala big brother
7 - BT to always open gates at least 1.5 hours before game time

Agree with the bolded points

but all stadiums are opened 2hrs before the game, isnt BTS?

Your Number 5. The Greasy Chip Butty song.

 

[midfielder]

1. More games - More teams
2. Better refs
3. Get rid of friday night games in sydney (always lowest crowds)
4. Get andy harper off fox sports for good.
5. ACL- Champions an Priemers go, the year they win...
To fix it, next season top four go.
6. Less Bias media
7. Fix SFS food
8. Make a transfer window. (No finals transfers) So players can only move at one time
9. More Saturday games
10. Pre season cup- More coverage/fox

half of them could be done...

Its funny how we  from all clubs have had it with those Sad Bitter Shi*es with Les the big SH*T, cannot agree with the Sunday games unless you want them in Sydney.

If that is the case then Sydney can have our Sunday games as those five O'Clock starts take at least 25% off our crowds and its the kids & Mums that mainly don't come and they are this clubs future.

Most other things you mentioned we are on the same page.

 

[skilbeck]

also can we have more subs on the bench. 4 is not enough, we should have 5-6 and 7-8 in the finals

 

[Fishsdad]

Want more free to air coverage.  Fox Sports do a good job, but HAL will gain more fans if we get greater coverage on free-to-air.  Probably quite restricted by FFA's contract with Foxtel though.

Re Sunday games - I personally prefer Friday or Saturday night, however there are quite a few that work on Fri Sat nights that can only attend Sunday games (my son is a Uni student; he and quite e few of his mates are in this position, with their P/T jobs).

 

[trev]

yeah same i like the sunday games because i can get to them easy i have tafe on a friday and it finshes at 4:30 so i wouldn't be able to make it

 

[Jesus]

5 subs would be good.

At this stage there will not be a womens league next season, but presumably the following season

 

[bjw]

What about the Youth League?
Could that possibly be a curtain raiser?

 

[Jesus]

youth league will be played immediately after a-league, to allow players on the bench but not playing a chance to play for the youth team and stay fit

 

[Tez]

id like to see the youth league and the womens league really take off - and hope the people of the coast get behind all our teams!

Ref's should be held accountable for their stupidity!

FFA should hire trained chimps to replace their executives

Foster should be run over by a bus...            ...repeatedly!

more rounds, more saturday / sunday games

Marinators grounp getting bigger, emo's out of bay 16

crowd more vocal at games!

Danny playing all/ most of the season!

 

[soccersensei]

but all stadiums are opened 2hrs before the game, isnt BTS?

Was a couple of disastrous games where they tried only opening an hour before. It was even bucketing at one such, and the crowd at the locked gate were bloody mutinous!

It changed back again, but would like to know it won't get back on the agenda.

Womens league, 09 hopefully... awesome.
Youth league after A league... fantastic!
Foster run over by bus... priceless ;D

Ditto Fishsdad. I reckon the HAL would be huge if even one match a week was put on free to air. And we can have Craig Foster commentating!

 

[poetryintheblood]

Definitely first and foremost is to get DECENT REFEREES on board. The stadium also needs to look at the services available, and cater for a wide range of spectators, and I don't smoke but I think the smoking rules there are just stupid, what's the difference between the air inside the grounds to outside, it's only the fence separating it.There are a lot of issues that need addressing, and if done properly will bring in much more people, and SATISFIED ones.

Import the security/stewards from the SFS to work at BT.

Reasonable, sensible and used to football crowds.

 

[Pete]

Import the security/stewards from the SFS to work at BT.

Reasonable, sensible and used to football crowds.

BT management should look at that, and get in contact with the SFS company. Also get Surry Hills Police to teach the Brisbane Waters/ Tuggerah Command how it's done properly too.
