| Quote Agent XIII="Agent XIII"You should be a pollster because the options are somewhat weighted against 1530 because for this option you only ask those that are inconvenienced . To be fair it should read "I prefer 3.30".
I voted for 1530 not because I am inconvenienced but it is the time I prefer.'"
Surely "Yes, I will find it difficult to attend and prefer 3.30" says exactly that?

| So Old Blighty and Agent XIII
We come to the same situation as always. Rather than just say it is weighted one way, can you show me how it should be written to make it neutral?
I addressed the question to the actual issue and put your preferred option at the top. Surely that would be weighting it in the other way?
Are you saying it should have been yes and No answer? Because I didn't think that was fair as there are a lot of don't care votes that would be forced to an answer and therefore swaying the vote unfairly.
I did notice the point you make though Old Blighty. 20% is higher than I thought the 3.30 opinion would have been.

And so far I have spoken to 3 season ticket holders, none of whom are members on here. None were particularly happy about the switch and would have preferred it leaving as it was. And I haven't even mentioned it to my dad yet! First question everytime was why? I couldn't answer.

Alright let's cut to the quick... I couldn't give a flying fart as to what time the kick off is as I will be asleep in my Sydney suburb bed at the time. HOWEVER... I do care what happens to the club, the team and the legacy that is Wakefield Trinity... And I see management regime after management regime committing simple business suicide.
Every time missing the big picture, focussing on one or two specialist disciplines.
Today (and i wont bore you with the rest of the week) I have been working with and advising two projects here in Aus, the first worth over 8 billion dollars and the second valued at a mere 51 million. I am not playing Johnny big potatoes but I know politics, budgets, business management and the breadth of discipline required for success... MC needs help... Big picture and detail...
How do we help him get it??? I am prepared to do some stuff but I am (and will stay) 13000 miles away.
Well how??

Could you advise the 8 billion dollar project to spend some money on advertising/sponsorship and steer them Wakefield's way ??

If the project and it's beneficiaries had a clue who you are then maybe... But thanks for missing the point.

Sorry mate... It took a lot for me to write that... Being the other side of the world when something you hold dear is in trouble is surprisingly stressful... I was trying to offer what limited help I could, whilst also trying to raise th profile of the need at hand...I lost my humor for a moment... Again apologies.

No worries, I think it's something we've all felt far too often recently. To be fair that's why I sometime feel like I have to try and inject a bit of joviality.
Seriously if you do have insights to offer then drop Michael Carter an email - he really does seem genuinely interested in people's suggestions from what I've seen of him.
