We are continuing to make strides in organising the dinner and will post full details of that and other events as soon as we can.

We are planning to attract as many big names from Greg's past as we can and, while the willingness of everybody to get involved is not an issue, the logistical exercise of finding a date to suit everybody is.

There are a number of factors constraining the timescale of events which mean that we shall be attempting to cram them all in the period up to the end of September, with the dinner the culminating event at the back end of that month.

We hope to have a clearer picture of everything by the beginning of next week.

In the meantime, one of the events that we were keen on planning was a quiz night similar to the annual Supporters Trust quiz, but involving past as opposed to current players and possibly with a greater degree of light-heartedness and quirkiness. Greg was a keen quizzer (at the very least, he enjoyed the social side of it and the wit and repartie that used to be thrown around the monthly quiz night at the Appleton Thorn Village Hall where he was invariably a member of our team). We will market the evening as "Brainstorm For Bluey" but need to ascertain the level of interest before deciding on a venue.

We would like to think that we can fill the Martin Dawes Suite for this event in the same way that the ST annual quiz does, so it would be useful if posters on here and those who regularly partake in the Supporters Trust event could express an interest by e-mailing me at richard.shanks54@gmail.com.

Many thanks to all those who have already committed their support.

No problem, Stuart - it can wait until you get back. Enough work in the meantime finalising a date for the dinner to accomodate all those big names who are keen to support it and then geting the details planned and the marketing in place.

Hello Stuart,

Can we meet up on Saturday - I have asked Neil to arrange all-areas passes so that we can have a final surge on selling the dinner at the Widnes game. Whilst we should have a reasonable turn-out, take-up from the regular contributors to this forum has been extremely disappointing to say the least!!!

Either that, or I'm around early this evening for a meet with Cull, so could meet then.

Cheers

Richard
