They stopped that scheme either last year or year before.

You don't recall? Here's a quick reminder . . . hope that's bottomed it for you

OK no problem I hope your lot fill the stand as it will allow us to put some money aside for emergencies etc.

Even though we have no 'money men' on the board we have been doing very well and in the last two years we have broken even and even made a small profit last season!!!

It's hard graft but it's better than B & Q or Asda on a Sunday afternoon.

Looking forward to it.

Pugwash.

There is a small amount of parking at the ground for £3.00,with limited street parking around the stadium but obey the no parking cones or you will get a ticket.As Pugwash says they normally allow parking for the larger matches at Oulder Hill School follow the signs for the Gracie Fields Theatre.

On Bulls Twitter, Bulls Jnr Season Ticket Holders get in free. TOO LATE! Already bought grandsons ticket. Why the late notification?
While I am at it, my Bulls Lotto form returned by my Bank because Bulls printed their a/c details wrongly on the form.This has been a bit of a shambles with me waiting for renewal form as promised on phone, then printing off form from website because promised form did not come. Now have to go personally to my bank to set up Standing Order because of the error on the form. Bulls have lost about 8 wks lotto from me - and I suspect a few thousand others

. #cash flow?

as the account name, but it was accepted with the single 't' so hopefully it will go normally.

Sounds like attention to detail could do with improving.

Very true.

It's dead easy to do on-line, but it does depend on the details being accurate. I couldn't understand why the form was telling me the bank account I was trying to send money to didn't exist, and in truth I don't understand the 'Lotto' and 'Loto' business at all; it's called Bulls Lotto, so why not Lotto on the account name

Any advice on where to park when (if) the stadium car park fills up?
That press statement makes it sound like the traffic wardens will be watching the roads around the ground like hawks, and makes no mention of using the school car park like somebody suggested earlier in the thread.

first away game I'm gonna manage to get to this year. Could be a double blessing if what I was told last night about who the guest commentator on BCB is going to be for this game

.

Anyone got any thoughts as to what squad we should put out on Sunday. In general I'd say you always put out strongest squad available, but we only have a small squad this year so I think we need to take this opportunity to give a few key players a break. Assuming foster,Blythe,Bateman and Evans all return then I'd think along lines of following. Foster or kear at full back with Kearney rested. Addy to partner gale with sammut rested. Evans in for scruton and Bateman in for whitehead. I'd like obrien to get a game too. Probably at l'estranges expense given diskin has already been rested at Easter. Probably too many changes to make at once buth think we need to look at making at least a couple of them to rotate squad a little.

I think Evans will almost certainly play. I'd expect Gale to get a full 80 minutes under his belt too.
The rest we can only guess until the official squad is released, but if Foster and Blythe are included then I would expect them to come in to get some match fitness.
I'd be surprised if Bateman featured.

Agree with Nothus, Gale full 80 as i expect him to play vs wire, evans to get a run and if foster and blythe are fit give them some game time.

Not sure about bateman, does he play or do we give him another week off for wire.

Would hope we could rest a couple of players who could be carrying knocks but with our small squad may not be possible.

Bulls Squad:
James Donaldson, Adam Sidlow, Jamie Langley, Manase Manuokafoa, Luke Gale, Adam O’Brien, Sam Wood, John Bateman, Heath L’Estrange, C, Adrian Purtell, Keith Lulia, Elliott Whitehead, Jamie Foster, Jarrod Sammut, Danny Addy, Tom Olbison, Chev Walker, Ben Evans, Michael Plat

Seems like FC doesn't agree

Going to be an interesting team selection. Bit surprised Kear has been left out as he seemed obvious one to play fullback in Kearney's absence. Wouldn't have thought we'd want to put Foster there as he's returning from an ankle injury and I'd imagine FBs a more stressful position in terms of sudden changes of direction than wing.

Wonder if we'll start with Sammut at FB, Addy and Gale in halves. With Addy going to loose and Sammut into halves to accommodate giving Wood a run at centre later in game. One of Platt/Addy dropping back to FB at that stage.

Would like to see Addy/Gale pairing given a bit of game time, afaik they haven't had much game time together and should Sammut get injured they'd be obvious pairing, so give it a try now where there isn't as much pressure.

Be interesting to see how FC lines us up.

Rest Sammut & Whitehead who have played every game this season.

IS jobe murphy injured?

Why hasnt he been included so we can at least rest another player.

I'm surprised Murphy's not included.

Don't think we'll expect Wood to play full 80 on his senior debut and don't think Walker is upto playing centre anymore to allow us to spell him. Maybe include Whitehead at Olbisons expense ( given Olbison had a knock recently) to allow us option of spelling Wood?.

Surprised no-one wants to rest one of the players vital to our great form.....Manuokafoa, for me this guy needs a rest and come back buzzing to rip into the Wolves.

There's limited street parking,follow the signs for the stadium from Junction 20,drive past the stadium and through the traffic lights you can park up there.Also when there's a big football match on they allow parking at Oulder Hill school just before the stadium signposted Gracie Fields Theatre.
The streets you CAN NOT park on are clearly signed with cones or street markings.
