Our CEO gave a good impression in a 5? min interview with Geoff Robinson,
 
talked up the relationship with the City, talked down any of geoff's top 4 ideas
 
(both good responses imo)
 
great to get some National coverage!!!
 
I missed the start - but i guess it came about on the back of our win on satdy
 
he said 880 season tickets sold, club is aiming for 2200 - they might need to give ticketek a rev up though judging by a lot of our experiences ( i wonder how many have been put off by the  performance of ticketek?)
 
he talked of hoping for 15-20 thousand for first game

Interview is at this link.
Profile pic. Should you be interested. Lakhsen, on the right, lost touch with him.
Mohammed, on the left, I'm still in touch with. He's now living in Agadez, Niger. More focused on his animals now as tourism has dried up. Is active with a co-op promoting local goods, leather work and bijouterie, into Europe.

 well the lions are crap (again) and once Tana leaves, rugby will die,the patronage is down and people are looking for something new to watch already

if everyone on this site convinced/converted one or more non phoenix supporters  about what their  about to miss out on  we'll get 15000 no trouble

 i convinced my boss a staunch rugby head  to get a season pass,  just need to work on him getting a corporate box

I think he was on the YF forum this morning and has seen the comments (see the comment from Trainee Tony_P on the Season Tickets thread) so expect the rev up and hopefully improved performance from ticketek very soon.

BTW, I think its spelled Pignata.
