Now I know this has been banded around before, but perhaps we were aiming too far afield... How about Brighton. I have mates there and can get us two games on a sat/sun pre season.
Brighton is only an hour and a bit away so I suggest we hire a minibus, get a travelodge near town, go friday night, have a few jars, play saturday, have lots of jars, play sunday, come home in the eve. Normal weekend away. Very Very doable.
Brighton is a good destination as its close and also a good night out. Don't be fooled into the down the pub image (response I actually received last night in flyer) "yeah its full o fuckin queers init" ... nice idea, i think we're big enough to realise its also full of birds, desperately short of straight guys.
So in principle, who is actually up for it?? I reckon we should aim to take around 16 playing staff. A mini bus full.
Just Phoned Travelodge Brighton... Picked a weekend in July -fri 13th and sat 14th.
3 adults to a room, so say we aim for 18 people, thats 6 rooms of 3.
£69 per room per night. so thats £23 per person per night, £46 for hotel.
Steveo... how would we get a minibus?? invite tony check?! Is anyone insured to drive one cos i'm sure we could hire one for a weekend for less than £250, I'd argue less than £20 each for minibus and petrol
so basically £60-£70 a head for the weekend before beers.
Thats not too expensive now is it chaps. And how many teams can say they go on pre-season tours?!
I'd like to put club social sec Steveo in charge of proceedings!!
What we need to do is to pick a weekend and make it happen. I'm shit with dates, so when is good, when is bad for people?!
LETS DO IT!!
apologies for rambling

Let's fucking do it. Top research into prices etc Dykey. The t-shirt idea looks a winner too, Morph. Please everyone, lets get it sorted. There really is no excuse not too. _________________ You'll Never Walk Alone (Unless you're Man U or Everton) |

Thats it lads get involved. We need to pick a weekend?? when would be good? do you think late july/early august. Anyone got holidays planned so we can avoid them
Confirmed Forumers:
Dyke
Deano
Stocks
Adamson
Gibbo
Likely attendees: Moon, Bruce, Steveo, Loppy, Carty, Butch, Logga, Pearce, Smarden Bob, Aaron Brown.
There are a few non playing staff reserves that I know will fancy the trip should we need to make up playing numbers like Tom Dyke, Chris Gibbs and I think former Troggs favourite Dogman fancies coming as a ref! _________________
