OK folks, I have been in discussion with the Bulls and have provisionally agreed the following.....

RAB to sponsor:

The Twins @ £700
Cain Southernwood @ £450

+ VAT @ 17.5%

= £1352.

Total pledged = 75 x £20 = £1500. (with only £160 unpaid)

£1500 - £1352 = £148 to BullBuilder

Also - on Hospitality:

We are going to have a choice of 2 games to attend (with the same conditions as last seasons Catalan game). There will be 36 places for each game on a first come, first served basis.

I take it there are no issues with this?

Cheers
Wigsy

happy with that

Sounds good to me!

Caveat - what happens if this "George on loan to Souths" rumour amounts to anything?

But otherwise I am very happy with that portfolio.

fine with me. Not sure how many votes DILLIGAF received in terms of players we would like to sponsor....

So much for the vote...

I'd assume the players chosen were those who received most votes. you do realise the vote has been running for weeks and you had to PM your vote in?.

There wasn't a great deal of choice believe it or not.

I think we've got a good mix there.

Fine with me, Cookie Jnr & Little Miss Cookie

Well I voted for Southernwood anyway so it's cool with me.

By all means give the remainder to Bullbuilder but could I float the idea of a huge flag.

The one thing about Sunday morning was seeing all the different union jacks/cross of St George flags from the different clubs (one of which was from Bradford). When Wigan went to Old Trafford last year and put up that massive flag in the stand it looked brilliant and you could just feel the massive amount of pride.

Something huge which says we're back.

We made a huge flag in BISA. Always thought it was a good idea.

Tales me back to a game at Knowsley Road, where the big BISA flag was being handed along the end terrace.

And was being collected at the end of the terrace and rolled-up by several local scallys.

Until we put a stop to it.

Guess it made a change from hubcaps...

Was it expensive Adey?

Maybe a design comp as the other ones seem so popular? (the clocks have changed and it's gonna be a long winter folks)

It cost only about £40 IIRC, because it was a volunteer effort with the material and the sewing and the time.

I suggest you'd need to rally a few volunteers again, preferably at least one of whom owned a sewing machine or some other means of sewing very large pieces of fabric together.

Bear in mind that, on this scale, anything other than an extremely simple design may be impracticable to make?

Agreed. And it sounds like most players are getting sponsors so that's good.
