I voted no. This forum is unofficial and works well, why change something that is not broken? In my opinion it would just cause problems with those paid members "in the know" taunting and dangling carrots to those non-paid members, because inevitably, some would be unable to help themselves by leaking content to non-paid members and the paid members demanding a refund.
The cub have a website, use it! It would take some co-ordinating and expense (more than the income generated from making it pay per view areas) to differentiate access the paid area and ensuring those that were non-paid members did not gain access via unscrupulous means. How would the club police this? Would it be moderated?
No disrepect to Mr Drinkwater, but why change the Square Deal to this 300 club? The Trust made it a success with a valuable income stream to the club and it was taken away. The reason for this was?
The club needs on board a dedicated fund raiser/sponsorship co-ordinator, someone with a proven track record to implement new measures and ideas for fund raising. Making this forum a paid media outlet would be disastrous.
Well, there's my view
