I sense we are all looking forward to the new season, despite relegation the appointment of MD (and how he presented himself) has given a sense of optimism for next season. How will Mr Nagle look to set expectations and keep things real? We know League One is a tough grind but equally we want to see Town winning and challenging. Is there an awareness to keep messaging appropriately tailored?

That’s a positive way to start Duff’s reign with a question like that, and to unleash AB’s lawyers upon us 🤦🏻♂️ Plus as a business man AB’s comments could have severely dented the value of some of his assists maybe? As in the players we might be looking to sell on so yeah I believe KN has every right to either defend his team and club at the expense of someone who has done a terrible job blamed everyone else but himself and jumped ship Totally agree if none of the 3 previous managers had a problem with the attitude of the playing staff then why on earth should take the word of someone who said 'he wished he'd never taken the post'.......The rant from AB should be dismissed as someone looking after his own interest & trying to find an easy route out of his contract. |

Vision and Goals:
What long-term vision do you have for Huddersfield Town FC?
How do you plan to achieve or at least drive towards sustainability in the club’s finances and operations?
Community Engagement:
In what ways do you think the club can further engage with and support development of the local community?
Any early thoughts here also with the relationship the club has and might have moving forwards with Huddersfield Giants through their shared interest in the stadium?
The ex stadium gym, fitness hall and swimming pool etc - are there plans afoot to do something before it becomes run-down?
Leadership Philosophy:
How do you adapt your leadership style to the unique challenges of football club ownership?
What do you believe is the key to building a cohesive and successful team and that winning culture that has been spoken about?
Fan Experience:
We heard lots of random stuff from supporters in the last couple of weeks of the season, but what improvements or changes are YOU considering to enhance the matchday experience for fans? It may well not be the case, but the repeated unidirectional call for ideas feels a bit like there's not really a plan or focus within the club.
Do you have plans to utilise technology to bring fans closer to the club?
Legacy:
What kind of legacy do you wish to leave behind as the owner of Huddersfield Town FC? Perhaps not just within the football club.

Justasmithers This is a small country with a lot of folk crammed in compared to the US. Houses don't come with anywhere near as much land as you would be used to. Generally gardens or 'back yards' here aren't big enough to start having different areas. A yard here would usually belong to a small terraced house (row houses I think you call them?) and be entirely paved. Could be front or back or a house may have both. Once it gets a bit larger and usually has a grassed area it transitions from yard to garden. For some reason the Instagram algorithm has recently decided I need to be fed a load of vids showing various houses for sale in Texas or Florida. They are all about twice the size of my house, have 4 times the garden space, and cost less than mine.  The commute would be expensive though. Not really, my commute is down 1 flight of stairs. But lets not open the WFH debate again! |

Well we think calling it a "yard" is a bit weird too. Back Yard sounds like a scrap yard over here, and it just generally sounds untidy as though there's nothing there. Also does Kevin only use a fork, stabbing at food like a bird, after having cut it up like we would for a child? Nothing meant, but all the U.S.programmes like Young Sheldon etc, drive me nuts with that, let alone using the fork upside down like a spoon.( Just get a Spoon.) I'm hoping not, as many in the big Cities on the east and west coast have travelled extensively and can now use two implements at the same time. ( You are the only country does this, even Canada using them the same as Europe does, knife in one hand, fork in the other.) Wait let me get this straight You cut, for example a steak, and then use a spoon to pick up the steak pieces from your plate to your mouth? And again, what do you call the place you might grow vegetables in your backyard/garden? vegetable garden or vegetable patch :0) |

Are there any plans to have more Heritage open days at the club going forward? Are there any plans to celebrate the upcoming 30th anniversary of the 1994-95 promotion?

Do you have plans to utilise technology to bring fans closer to the club? Legacy:What kind of legacy do you wish to leave behind as the owner of Huddersfield Town FC? Perhaps not just within the football club. Great questions, I’ll answer the one part on “Fan Experience”: Please don’t mistake my reaching out for questions/ideas as a lack of ideas. This is something I’m very deeply involved in, and I cannot begin to tell you the pages and pages of things we are trying to accomplish prior to the new season. At the same time, they won’t all work or be executed in time, but I think you’ll be happy with many of the improvements both in a couple months and as the season progresses. For me personally, the philosophy is simple: 1. There are many amazing and creative minds at Town who have lived and breathed this club for years, they all have some great thoughts to harness Also 2. So many of you can say the same. Too many times in corporate culture “new management” comes in and simply wants to “disrupt”, and it eludes me why more don’t reach out to the only constituency that matters, the “customer”. I purposely put customer in quotes because I learned quickly that’s a bad word, you’re of course far more (I prefer FAMILY), but it’s also a business and no one knows better than those paying their hard earned money and investing both cash and mental health in the experience. Not everyone will agree or have similar thoughts, but if you take a broad enough view, eventually commonalities in thought will emerge. You cross tab those and execute the ideas most executable, if you will. Build from there. So please consider my questions a bit of friendly “market research”. No opinions matter more than yours, and I enjoy being a bit of a conduit to the boardroom to make sure they’re represented. Also, I’m not the only Town employee reading here  Take care |

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. Careful mate, knock one out means something VERY different here  Edit: FFS check the whole thread first, several people beat me to it |

My paternal gran had a back yard (paved, no vegetation or grass whatsoever), my maternal gran had a back garden, which incorporated (sometimes) veg, always fruit AND a lawn. When they came to visit us in Bulford they BOTH thought we were dead posh because we had a front garden AND a back garden |

AB didn’t accuse any specific person. 2. You want to ask KN a question which involves accusing AB of making excuses and covering his own arse to look better to future employers. If you can’t tell the difference, nor how that might lead to legal consequences, sorry but I can’t help you any further on this. |

There as been a lot of talk about trying to attract new fans, young and old, to the club. With these price increases, the club are pricing out a lot of people who would have liked to attend this season, particularly if it was a family who would have liked to purchase tickets for this season. Kevins last messge was that the club had decided to freeze season ticket prices this season, however it turns out that that statement was actually misleading. Surely the aim is to attract as many fans as possible, especially after a relegation season when there are gonna be a large amount of empty seats in the stadium most games. New fans are vital, extra match day revenue is vital, filling as many seats as possible is vital, not just for revenue but for atmosphere too. The clubs message they tweeted out yesterday says Everything Together, We need you with us. Well its not very together when two people sitting next to each other could have spent £100 difference in tickets. I think this is a misjudgment by the club, and a very big PR mistake. |

My first one in 93/94 season I paid more than most people because we didn't come back to UK until after the season started. I missed the first game (heavy 0-3 defeat against iirc Reading) and STILL paid more for the ST. Is it the amount difference? Or just the fact we've been relegated? |

But as this is a post regarding season cards, then unfortunately I can't. The post isn't about benefits for fans renewing, theres plenty of ways to do that, its about actively talking about wanting to bring in new fans to the club, then upping prices for them wanting to do so, after announcing that the club had decided to freeze prices for this coming season. |

By all means give renewals an incentive such as the prize draw or even £10 off but not £50+ |

I think the biggest thing to be asked is will be ambition of promotion be matched by the budget given to Duff to spend. Personally feel we need as bigger squad overhaul as possible. We need 2 new wing backs under a 352 formation, a dominant and dynamic CM who can pass, a CAM, and a better striker. Probably a ball playing CB too of Helik and Balker go.

90% of our last summer budget was pissed away on a player that had a big injury the season before, by his own admission has a permanently disformed ankle and we couldn't get him match fit throughout the entire season. What are we going to do differently this summer to make sure we don't have our pants down again? More stringent fitness checks? Better medical advice?

I’m interested to know if we are spending any time looking at the way other clubs in the lower leagues do things? Their setup, their match day experience, their hospitality etc…
Further to that point has Kevin watched any of the fly on the wall UK football series. Sunderland till I die the obvious one but also Welcome to Wrexham or Mission To Burnley?

What are we going to do differently this summer to make sure we don't have our pants down again? More stringent fitness checks? Better medical advice? Very good question. Also the injuries we've sustained has to be questioned. Have we decided what actually caused the number of injuries to be so high and acted on it or are we also blaming that on Warnock's pre season? Signing two more injury prone players in January didn't help, that's for sure. My guess is that training and conditioning through the season wasn't up to scratch, having three different coaching teams wouldn't have helped either. Pre season would also have been a factor IF it was as poor as we're led to believe (not convinced by that at all since there is a team of well paid professionals who's job it is to get them fit and RR and NW both vastly experienced). |

Historically they were...but, not last season, or in recent seasons (albeit half season tickets were available at what was effectively an increased price). You can only logically increase the price of a season ticket after early bird offers if there is DEMAND for them. Seems crazy after a relegation. We're not talking about people who already bought tickets last season - but a new punter who previously decided they didn't want to pay £250 last season is hardly likely going to pay £100 more than that for a lower standard of football...ESPECIALLY when a quarter of league games will be televised (plus a MINIMUM of 4 EFL Cup and Trophy games per club). |
