Your time is appropriated. 

I just feel that the hurdles of getting this going aren't that difficult to overcome and should a kid be hit on the back of the head as he walks up the stairs to take his seat, possibly cracking his skull on the sharp concrete steps we'll look back and say that that was totally avoidable. 

I would definitely say that installing this is a "reasonably practicable" measure.

If i may be allowed to post something BEFORE its jumped on by the "Waiting to be/pro-active" offended brigade.

why dont the club put up a set of practise goals at either end of the stadium in front of an open corner area?

that way there would be a lot less people in the firing line for stray shots, the integrity of the goalmouths would be maintained and a greater cost/effort potentially avoided. Corners either side of the West stand would keep it away from the panda club too.

Put them in front of the away fans, especially the unwashed.  Who gives a monkeys whether THEY get smacked by a ball?

Away fans more likely to complain and sue.

Re. The Smisa September update that dropped into everyone's mailbox today/last night.

the survey within the update paints a subtle, interesting positioning strategy by the Smisa committee. Like the initial survey over a year ago that was used to determine the type of thing members may like to see put forward for a vote on the £2 pot, this survey seeks to illicit if members want to see the pot spent on either club issues or community issues.

it appears that this will influence what is put to the vote, and given the outcome of votes thus far it is reasonable to assume the likelyhood is the winning vote will be for a spend on the club. Even though in the last round of votes over 60% of those voting chose options other than just the club.

what it means is the 'first past the post' system of deciding the spend will see community projects overlooked, even though a majority may have chosen a selection of them. If this is how it is going to be it runs contrary to all the communications, promotion, discussion during BTB where it was explicitly stated time and again that the community as a whole would benefit from the £2 pot as well as club related things.

if that is the case, and despite votes cast in the majority for community projects being dropped as no one singular project beat the first past the post vote, it would seem reasonable to accommodate Smisa members who dont then see the point in contributing to the £2 pot as the eventual spend never reflects their vote, or indeed one of their reasons for signing up go BTB...?

looks like a game-changer here, if the community side is effectively dropped then members have the right to opt out of funding the £2 pot.

Bit of a bump to this thread.

I hope Smisa are willing to put funds towards the ladies team without the need for a vote. I hope the men's teams are also contributing to them as well.

If SMISA are putting their own raised funds to the ladies team that’s fine by me without a vote but I think they’re doing it right in regards to three month spend. No aspect of that money should be spent without a vote IMO

The money is saved like the excess money would be saved this quarter. It will either be able to form part of another option short-term, long-term or put to the buyout cost. 
Meant what would happen to the ladies team as it seems that they are counting on it!??

I don't think they're counting on it too be honest. They will be able to raise funds through a number of means. Pretty sure it'll pass anyway.
