I would like to take a moment and thank you the fans, also the main sponsors "Mains Business and Stagecoach" i would also like to thank all the other sponsors and business that have helped us get this far.

Grow up. I think the hard work is to be commended, not to be sneered at.

Absolutely...an excellent contribution to increasing the profile of our club.

I'm sure it will have been worth the wait.

Now let's capitalise on it by ensuring maximum media coverage....nationwide!

I bet it's the first of its kind in the footballing world.

Well done.

Little Shrimp....I thankyou for your imput, but if you realised the very,very hard work that has gone into this then maybe you wouldn't be so quick to comment in that way.We wanted max coverage and this will be a big game...I would also like to give a big thankyou to all those involved and all those fans that contributed in a constructive way.
I would assume we won't be seing a little shrimp at the unveiling??

Thanks again from myself and Sam

Well done Sam and the rest of the organisers. It really is a great tribute to your loyalty and hard work on behalf of not just the football club, but the community. You don't need nominating for any awards, the visitor/club et al should be singing your praises from the rooftops. And maybe the North Stand will too....

Again many many congratulations

Darren

by **ockers** » Thu Aug 27, 2009 10:59 pm

great news lads and very very well done
but.........would it not be a great idea to have a bus ticket to the ground good old fashioned football special from uni to footie ground one for the clubs commercial dept to get to grips with bus driver/ticket collector a la on the buses
i can think of morecambe mick and freez tacking ticket srepeating tales of keith galleys shagging encounters at the grab a granny nights on west end pier 1977
why not a special day ferry as many fans in on bus with funds going to the club as a one off
got to be worth a try
cant we get svne as bus driver and so l campbell taking tickets as well
you can see where im going with this......freez?????????????
over to you
