The return of a stand alone museum.
One of the major issues members & supporters have had with the Board was the disgraceful demolition of the much loved museum when the ground was 'redeveloped'. We have heard from Club officials that some historic artefacts have been thrown away and others damaged (Championship Pennant is one) as they are being stored inadequately at the Club. Despite a number of repeated assurances that a museum was about to be built several years ago we still eagerly await its reappearance and will not relent in putting pressure on the Board until it is finally replaced.
Two Championship fixtures & two National League fixtures to be played at outgrounds within the historic Lancashire boundaries.
Old Trafford is a grey dismal place to hold County & National League fixtures. More use should be made of the outground venues and to add on the proviso that they are actually played in Lancashire now has to be included after the ludicrous decision in 2019 to play a home game in the Yorkshire Dales in Cumbria with very little infrastructure.
A return of an elevated view in the Pavilion for all members.
The outrageous decision to ban traditional members from all 3 balconies when the pavilion reopened in 2012 should be overturned. Lords & the Oval are among many other grounds who allow all members access to pavilion balconies. This mercenary action taken by the Board is just one of the reasons why the Club has lost over 8,000 members in under 20 years.
The return of life membership.
Of course people live longer these days but to abolish this form of membership completely should be reversed.
Help the historic outgrounds.
Assist Blackpool & Southport to ensure they continue to host 1st team games in the future.
Abolish the Board-appointed Nominations Committee.
It is totally undemocratic for the Board to stop members and supporters standing for election to the Board. Let the members decide who they can vote for!
Abolish the Members Representative Group.
Elected not by the members who they are supposed to represent but by the Club, this toothless group, who even include a relative of a Board member, have no independence whatsoever.
Reform a democratic members' committee.
As successfully run by other major counties, a members' committee would act as a conduit between the membership and the Club.
Support a campaign to abolish the new 100-ball franchise.
We will be liaising with other organisations who will be actively campaigning against this abhorrent franchise competition. 95% of members don't want it and neither do we!
Reintroduce overseas reciprocals.
Another benefit of being a Lancashire member that was taken away by the Board.
Include Yorkshire T20 game in traditional membership.
Both Lancashire & Yorkshire charge £240 for traditional membership but Yorkshire members get it free. You never know make it part of the membership again and you might get some new members. Now there's a thought!
Allow Members Forums to be allowed to discuss Members issues and produce minutes.
Last year the Board announced that only 'cricket issues' could be brought up at a members forum. This is a whitewash and if a member has a problem with fees, ticketing etc he should be heard in front of other members. There has also been so many idle promises made over the last few years by members of the Board at members forums that they should be made accountable. Produce the minutes so that they can be made accountable!
