I voted no, 2 of my Burnley supporting mates have seen via Facebook that I voted no and then voted yes. Stupid idea, they should just get shut.

Mowbray said he has other business interests outside of football. I know he's heavily involved with Gary Flitcrofts company, Flitcraft, so I'd imagine that may be a factor as to why he's chose to leave. -

Didn't sound promising when asked about Armstrong. Spoke of his goalscoring record not being great in championship. Back to Chapman, Middlesbrough would be open to Chapman coming to Rovers if the numbers are right. -

Chapman wants to come back to Rovers. Mowbray says he still feels he's more of an impact off the bench player at present. Didn't give anything else away. -

Season tickets.. already in excess of last season's sales with 6/7 weeks to go before start of season and transfer activity to go. 16% are NEW customers (not returning) Early bird deadline won't be extended. New season tickets sent out last week of July or first week in August due to the new turnstile system. New cards will last for 3 years at least. -

Stadium maintenance... Waggot says they need to conform to health and safety regs, agrees things need to be looked at and they'll be addressed and prioritised. Let club know if there are particular areas that need immediate work. Big investment and says In honesty it is probably a 10 year plan before full maintenance is complete, and by that time they'll need to start again. Final decision on DE closure was Waggots. Says it makes complete commercial sense due to high away followings this season. Club will help make corner of JW lower a designated singing section, currently monitoring the numbers going in. -

New initiatives.. Big investment on new turnstile system, anyone on kid ticket that's an adult will be stopped. Data capturing etc is better. Blues bar is being revamped and will be ready for start of season. Every pitch the club owns has been upgraded. Hoping to get multi-dispensers for half time pints also hoping to install contactless asap. Back to shirts, hoping for multiple sponsors before the season starts. -

Programmes will be available next season but how they are ordered and sold is to be reviewed. Maybe a membership scheme. -

18/19 turnover is projected to be at 75/80% higher than it is currently - Cheston Will Venkys want their money back from the club? - Venkys have never given any indication they would want it back.. the loan is interest free. The Venkys have sent a letter to EFL saying they are happy to continue funding the club. The club cannot pay them back at present anyway. Hawk eye comes into play this season, cost of £85,000 to the club. -

There is no intent to bring in outside investors by Venkys and they're happy to keep supporting BRFC themselves. We're relying on a benefactor model at present. Steve Waggot has no definitive answer as to what Venkys reasons were to buy the club. -

Waggot has a direct line to Madame Desai and all decisions are made by him to ensure the decision making process is quicker than it has been in the past. -
