sparkafag Posted October 8, 2014 Report Share Posted October 8, 2014 Simple, First Saturday in November. By that time of year riders want to be home with their family, they have travelled all summer. Asking riders to stick around another week when they really don’t have to, or fly back into the country and hang around airports again, is pretty harsh when you can just have it on a Friday night "It is their job, stick it in their contract" etc and so on, sure, or just have it on a Friday and it is a win/win.

Half of our team will have to do that anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sparkafag Posted October 8, 2014 Report Share Posted October 8, 2014 Fly in for Glasgow, stay over then go home I would have thought. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YAMYAMBANDIT Posted October 8, 2014 Report Share Posted October 8, 2014 Fly in for Glasgow, stay over then go home I would have thought. Not usually Glasgow, Newcastle or Edinburgh, but for some reason cut price airlines have poorer services on a Sat, so if they are coming for Friday, have to wait till Sunday to fly back. Thats why anybody going to Poland on a Sat go down to Stanstead or Luton, on the late bus. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

screm Posted October 16, 2014 Report Share Posted October 16, 2014 I have a question on the END OF SEASON DO 2014 WHICH PLANK CHOSE A FRIDAY NIGHT?. Does someone with no brains, not realise, that in this area, a lot of Berwick fans have to work on a Saturday. :mad: Sunday any better for you. In a season so-spoiled by postponed meetings (Workington brought our tally for the year to 18!) it was hardly surprising to learn our plans to stage an End-of-Term Dance have been wrecked by rearranged fixtures, too! The Dance -- planned to be at the Black-and Gold on Friday, October 24th has been cancelled, as the promotion did not want our riders, mechanics and officials -- who have worked so hard to entertain us all season -- to have forego having a let-your-hair-down evening on the night before we are now required to race at Workington. Instead, we will stage an End-of-Term Party -- some real "Afternoon Delight" -- at Berwick Rugby Club, on the day after our final away meeting, on SUNDAY afternoon, October 26th. This will take place from 2pm until 7 o'clock. This special event will have Andersons' pies and a sweet course for our 'afternoon tea' and of course the bar will be open. All the regular end-of-term trophies will be presented, the riders and management will make their speeches and there will be the usual raffle. Tickets now only £4 - £3 if your a Supporters Club member. All brilliantly-organised by lovely Lani Rae -- and questions over tickets, etc, should go to Lani on 07779-227535 or Lisa Youngman on 07773-759864. Taken from the latest newsletter.

No mate!, still got to go to go to work on the Monday. All right if you want to listen to speeches, and sip an orange juice or have a shandy. I think having a party is exactly that, don't want to be a boring twit. :drink: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shadders Posted October 16, 2014 Report Share Posted October 16, 2014 (edited) Well, that's seven of us that won't be going now. You've got to ask who was in charge of organising the dinner & dance and why it wasn't arranged for the first Saturday in November (1st) I'm sure the Black & Gold are thrilled that they will be losing a four figure sum in revenue.
