Going to slot one for early this week.
The last one was, for obvious reasons, much more serious in tone than usual. Since summer is now beginning in earnest, we’ll probably knock one out every 3-4 weeks.
So that being said, I always appreciate being able to count on my friends here for some good questions. I hate the whole “his mate is interviewing him so we won’t get tough questions”, all are welcome.
And they don’t all have to be serious here, we’ll throw in some random ones as well. Please just pop them below if you wish.
As always thanks and take care.

What are Kevin’s ultimate aims for the club and the wider areas? As in, for the club what is his expectation for next season, where are we in terms of the stadium change of ownership, town fan pub at the ropewalk?
Probably a repetitive question and not necessarily one he can fully answer right now, but as and when would be rather nice.

Are we going to have any sponsors (particularly on the kit) from Kevin’s contacts in the US?
Any new ways of growing revenue that we’re trying as a club?
What’s the update on owning the stadium?

Was AB justified in what he said about the players attitudes or was he just looking after himself for future employment by blaming others?

Do we plan to get our transfer business done early, with regards to both incoming and outgoing players.

Firstly - thank you for doing the diaries and for seeking out questions - it is much appreciated.
My question is - how are the negotiations in relation to Kevin taking over ownership/control of the stadium going and do you have an approximate date for this to complete?
Thanks again.

How are season card sales going?
Considering the ( lack of ) positive influence singings made to our fortunes last season, both in terms of players and managers, how much did he consider replacing those who made those calls?

Is there any truth that he is working closely with Ken Davy to assist in their plans to build a 10,000 seater stadium on the site of the demolished gas club?

That’s a great way to start Duff’s reign with a question like that. 🤦🏻♂️ But the last diary was still talking about trying to keep hold of AB so? It’s not aimed at MD it’s aimed at KN. He seemed like he wanted to keep him now he’s not here as a paying fan of the club I’d be interested to know if he was as much to blame for the shitshow of a season as the so called bad eggs were?

Just refer to the thread “Questions for Kevin” as so many unanswered questions there after the last diary.

Maybe it’s common knowledge and i could find out with a little research but who are the people actually running the club day to day? The ones that earn decent money, what do they actually do?

I was editing my comment when you replied the first part, I added that there could be legal issues too with a question / answer like that.

I was editing my comment when you replied the first part, I added that there could be legal issues too with a question / answer like that. I understand Town fans don't want to believe that, our players downed tools and gave up. The amount of hidings we got and the complete and utter fall aparts, says to me that the players did not have the right attiude/ commitment to the cause. Andre saying it was like " you don't say " Just watching the games said as much. I understand its hard for fans to accept , but there was a real lack of togetherness and effort in quite a few games. Did anyone not think towards the end of the season, that it was strange how the players when itnerviewed mentioned the term "together" as many times as they could ? They will have being told by our PR guy to say this, as they will have known, that fans were seeing a complete lack of this , so were told to repeat themsvelves throughout interviews. You can say buzz terms as much as you like, but the preformances just didn't add up or follow on.

Hey Dave, please ask Kevin if we can have a "Kevin's Tash Appreciation" home game next season, obviously everyone must all have a tash for that match 👨 real or fake Thank you 😉

Just refer to the thread “Questions for Kevin” as so many unanswered questions there after the last diary. I will and we will clean some up, but as we had questions coming in from multiple sources, we didn’t have time (and it was the longest diary by far). Plus I know some questions have obviously changed with the times, so thought I’d ask again.

Is Hogg staying / having a testimonial? What's the timetable for the new kit(s)? Any changes to the manufacturer / sponsor? Does Duff have free reign in appointing his support team? How is the relationship with Duff given you publicly stated retaining AB was your preference?

I try to knock one out daily, but I appreciate as you get older it's harder (or not), but every 3-4 weeks shows great restraint...

Kev - what kinda standard of sgining are we looking at ? Is the funding going to be there, to be able to attract players to get the club moving again ?
