KES80 I will take you serious when you stop hiding behind a false name  and as for the online application forms there is no one more frustrated than me

[Mallard]

Malc I think people have been very patient awaiting this online application and payment format.  It must be into several weeks now.  Yet still nothing.  Maybe direct your aggression to those who are suppose to be making this happen for you, not the people who want to give you money.

Not that old chestnut again?

Malcolm, people have forum names for a number of reasons, and its up to them. I really don't think its just to hide their identity, as most people know who are behind the majority of the forum names.

In addition to that, if they post a "name", who's to say it is actually their real name? Do you think all the names you see on Facebook and Twitter are peoples real names?

If people wish to use forum names, its up to them. If people want to use a made up name, its up to them. If people want to use their real names, its up to them. Thats how the cookie crumbles on this forum and always has done.

To coin a phrase used by a previous Chairman................."If people don't like it, they know where the door is".

Regarding the on line application form. No doubt you have been trying and are also frustrated with it. I fully believe that. If the Club can't be arsed to get it sorted out when the Chairman of their Supporters Club has asked numerous times, it really is asking the question  if there any point to it all? It really shows what the powers that be really think of the FOTL's and the Clubs supporters in general.

Maybe there's an issue bigger than we think, regarding the firm that is paid to do such things on the website.

Mall you can join by bank transfer and my head is sore with banging my head against a brick wall, all I hear is anytime now. An old Derbyshire saying comes to mind it’s “Hear all See All and say nowt and if you want owt doing do it for thee sen.”

B & G the online application is nothing to do with the football club it’s a friends initiative

That's different than what was said before. Has it now changed?

So, when its done, where are people supposed to go to be able to complete it (I.e. which website)?

If it is a Friends initiative, that makes the delay more confusing. What's the problem? It's a 5 minute job?

If you'd like me to arrange to get it done, please let me know. Obviously would need to know details of the site its going to be on, and all the log in details (which you could then change once the form is on line).

Thanks for that I will be in touch ,it  will be on our own website when’s it’s done

Godaddy or Wix site would probably be sufficient for what you need.

Low cost and relatively easy to do. You don't have to be a web designer or IT specialist to set one of those up. Good tutorials available.

Not a 5 minute job but can easily be done in a day. If you've now gone down this route instead of just putting a form on Clubs site, chances are at least one of your 40 members would be capable of doing it. As its not a major job, hopefully your efforts wil come to fruition very soon and you can tick that one off your list.

I'd have thought it would be beneficial to have the application form on the Club site anyway, even  if the fotls develop their own site. The Club will always get more traffic than a fotl's site.

I presume the Club will allow you to do that?

When the Trust membership form was created for this site the majority of the time was spent setting up the PayPal side of things and the details they require.

It seems to me, from what has been said on here and the way things are panning out, that maybe the Club/Chairman have a luke warm response to the FOTL.

If and when a Commercial Director is appointed, one of the areas in his/her vast remit, is to encourage engagement with the fan base. Could it be then, that the Club will be launching new initiatives/supporters groups on a grander scale than the FOTL in the near future ?

It doesn't seem very easy going for MAH at the moment......Mr Hill, can I ask if you have checked with SC to check that there isn't a rival body being contemplated in the foreseeable........ would hate to think you are expending all this energy for what might turn out to be a lost cause.

Didn't he want to drop the Friends name and have it called Kings Lynn (Independent) Supporters Club, but the committee voted against it, with only one committee member for it.

Maybe that could be a factor in the Club not appearing to be interested in it. Having said that, Club doesn't appear to be interested in anything supporter related at the moment?

Weren’t the club going to appoint a Fan Liaison officer ? Did this ever happen ? I’m assuming not.

Not sure if this was another of Chairman’s ideas or M Hearle’s

Maybe that’s what’s going to be announced in the program tomorrow.

Flocking to your door now!

A very big "well done" to you and your new committee. It just shows what can be achieved when peolple put their minds to it, all pull together, are willing to pull their sleeves up and get stuck in, and have a passionate leadership.

Keep it up!
