What if you sell two/three cards ??

Don't mind what happens.. but have to say it will be easier for some lads to shift them than others. Jsut a thought,.. not trying to cause a rift.

It's true..check the name.. its not Scott 'You say white I say black' McGrane...


Sorry ScoTT..

If someone manages to sell more than one card then bloody well done to them!

I think if someone does manage to fill a card, and feels they are able to sell more teams, they they could help those who have mabye stalled and are struggling to fill their own ones. Would be a bit crap if we have taken peoples money and are not able to give them a good chance of winning 20 sheets.

If you sell two or three cards, the money raised you can use towards the cost of your room.

There will no doubt be guys who won't boether their **** to sell a card - I don't think these guys should be getting the benfit from others who are slogging their **** to raise money.

As Tom says though, if you complete a card and think you can do more, ask on here first if anyone is struggling - that way you can get the card sold, pay out a prize and split the other £20 between you or what not.

Sounds fair enough. We have a rule at work that we aren't to have sponsorship forms and such like due to so many coming into the office in the past so it's not so much that i can't be arsed doing a card it's that without pestering my colleagues for sponsorship I wouldn't manage to get one filled.

Happy to pay the £22.50 instead.

Lads,

As the money needs paid to the bus company a week tomorrow, I'll need a day or two to get the money to the bank so I can pay it in.

So that in mind, I need everyone to give me their £22.50 before Wednesday of next week (29th June). I'll be going to the bank on my lunch break on the Wednesday so need it all in before then.

Can you all start to make plans for when you'll get it to me.

I'll put a list of everyone's names that's going then take you out as you pay.

Cheers.

Still to pay...

Are you at home tonight? If so then I'll get the money to you tonight. I need to pick up my poker chips from you before the weekend anyways.

I'm not 100% sure right now to be honest mate - if you text me when you're coming I can let you know. I'll sit your chips and a football card at the door anyway and if I'm not going to be in, I'll let my mum know your nipping round to drop money off and collect that

Still no draw been made yet.

Going to be 14 groups of 4 and 1 group of 5 (as there's only 61 teams this year).

The top 2 from each group will go through to the championship on the Sunday plus the 3rd place team in the group of 5 and one randomly drawn 3rd place team from another 4 team group. The rest will go into the Plate on the Sunday.

Gibby can't make it now unfortunately but I know Cheeco was saying at the racenight that he fancied it so trying to get a hold of him to let him know the details to see if he's defo up for it. Would save reorganising costs and rooms (not that it would change much anyway).

Will let you all know when I know

PNE and current holders WBA in same group. Tough one.

Most teams will have full squads ( unlike your average league game )
Likely that IFA 'rankings' will go out the window down there.

Side note.. well played Aberdeen - 2 full squads.

As long as we go down with the same attitude and tactics as last year we will be fine.

Lets go down there and enjoy it lads. Excitement is growing now!

Just need to watch with strip clashes. Guessing Hull will be in yellow and black, and Ipswich in Blue. Im sure this will be covered by communicating with the other teams though.

With having the coach this year.. I don't suppose it would be any hassle to take OL's black kit as a back up inase of kit clashes..

I'll talk to the chairman...

He says it's fine.. as long as you GS ****s look after them.

This is where we're at just now lads.

The coach needs to be paid on Friday so still looking for everyone to pay their £22.50 toards this before Wednesday so I can put it in the bank and get it paid to them at the end of the week. Only had 3 folk pay so far, which means there's still 21 folk to pay.

Dave Black - Paid
Andy Baillie - Paid
Mark McGinty - Paid
Calum Leslie - Paid

Tom Cheeseman - Paid

Callum McKinven
James Nicholson
Darren O'Neill - Paid

The coach will be leaving from Almondvale Stadium at 10am on Friday 23rd July. Will sort out exactly what time we want to meet prior to that once we've got it paid off.

We'll arrive in Leeds and head to the pitches first to get registered and maybe watch the Scotland vs England game - will sort this out with the driver on the day. Head back to the hotel after that and we can get checked in and the rooms paid. The rooms will be £80 each (£120 per night x 2 = £240 divided by 3 people = £80 each) We'll all get shifted then most likely head to the famous Chinese again for a bit of team grub and the PotY awards. Then the night begins...

Awaiting to hear KO times but we'll head to the pitches on the Saturday where we'll definatley be playing Halifax, Hull and Ipswich in WorldNet Group D. Will hopefully get a friendly lined up at some point too depending on the times we're given. Again, once we're finished at the pitches, we'll head back to the hotel and sort out what we're doing for grub - I'd be all for another trip to TGI's.

The Sunday, we'll leave the hotel with all our stuff and head to the picthes where we'll have our first knock-out game (KO time dependent on how we do on the Sat). It'll just depend on how well we do as to when we'll leave - the better we do, the further we go, the later we leave and vice-versa. Head down the road and that'll be another WorldNet journey to report on.

We'll maybe look to get a pint together somewhere on the Thursday night before we go. Nothing too much as I know some folk will want to spend the night with family/burds etc but we've always tried to get a beerski in somewhere the night before.

It goes without saying that drinking on the bus down there is a no-no this year.

Spending money when you're down there is obviously totally upto each person. If you've not been before or just thinking of what you'll need dosh for, there's not THAT much. Dinner and beers on the Fri night, food at the pitches on the Sat and Sun (burgers, chips, juice etc) then money for dinner and beerski's on the Saturday night. I don't remember the pubs and clubs being too expensive when your down there - most places have deals and what not on. Just take what you can afford

Anyhoo - if you all make sure you get your coach money to me over the next two days then that'd be great. Remember there's football cards here too so even if you pay your coach money out of your own pocket, a football card would help reduce the cost of your room by £20.

3 weeks on Friday - cannae wait!

Take it no drinking on the bus is the companies rules ? Fair dues.
Good to get in a give Saturday a good shot too, without the squad feeling too hungover.

There a bog on this bus tho - right ?
Usually pitstops are made as and when to accomodate toilet tops and food.
we just having one planned stop for food this year ?


Do we need OL's black kits as a spare/emergency change? Just out of interest ?

Is it not illegal to drink on a coach at all?

I'll need to ask about a bog on the bus - I didn't think there was but I'll double check. I think it's the law again that he bus driver must stop every 2 hours for so long anyway so would imagine we'll stop twice on the way down. Just grab food from Asda the night before, take a leak before we go and everyone will be fine

Not too sure about kits just yet - going to aim to get in touch with the organisers from the other 3 teams and see what colour they play in.
