We don't have a dedicated PR dept because we don't have the dosh. Just to man a decent one would need, I would say £80,000 minimum. Then you need a budget to fund the projects that I would guess will set you back £60,000 and that would buy a 20th of what some on here are expecting the club to provide. I personally think we do a half decent job at promoting the games now. It's a damm site better than a few years ago. When I looked through Halifaxes program at the weekend it filled me pride because ours is head and shoulders above theirs. Thats down to a group who give up their time to produce it. It's coming as are the crowds. Slowly but it's coming. Have faith.
No one is talking about employing someone on an £80k salary with a £60k budget get real, we all know that budget is a pipe dream! We are talking about a few posters around the place, use the trailer that has been mentioned, get reserves in the town handing out leaflets on Saturdays, etc!
Yes I fully agree the program we have is fantastic but again this something for the established fans, they need to be targetting the town and surrounding areas!
Its fantastic that the fans are trying to help but the club also need to use these people! It's been mentioned on here that people from the club read this board so they know people want to help, why not get them all together and brainstorm ideas!
