Alright, some quality news this morning. The sample strip I had ordered arrived, very promptly I might add. I’m absolutely delighted with the result, Ian at soccerdirectfc.co.uk has done a brilliant job on touching up the badge and the sponsor for me for no extra charge. So here’s the grand unveiling.

Total cost of the top is roughly 20 odd quid. The first thing I need to do is go show this to Nigel and depending on what kind of sponsorship he can give us I’ll be able to work out a price for an entire squad of them, with socks as well. An incentive to raise more of the money from the boys themselves will be to get the boys to pay the full price of a top if they want it printed like the one I’ve just bought, I reckon it’s a small price to pay for a quality product with a good personal touch.

Another important piece of news is that everything has been confirmed for our game against the Witchery on Tuesday. We’ve got a pretty strong squad together and the fact that the game will be Witchery’s 3rd in 4 days makes me think they may be a wee bit tired and injury stricken come Tuesday. I got a call from good old Chris Muir the other night as well, pretty much asking to referee the game so naturally I’ve booked him for what will hopefully prove to be a firey affair. I’m also planning on catching the Witchery’s next two intra mural league games to pick up some kind of tactical knowledge, true dedication to the team as both matches are 10am kick offs at the windswept wasteland that is the Jack Kane centre.

Anyways, I’ve got a busy couple days ahead compiling a dossier on opposition and going cap in hand to Nigel for a bit of sponsorship and hopefully it will all culminate in good news.

Keep the faith
