Season's Greetings

Hearty seasonal good wishes to everyone connected with our club. Players, team officials, committee members, helpers and supporters.

Alas, because of the weather, we haven't had the opportunity to be together in recent times so fingers crossed that Monday's game against Alresford will take place.

If it does then perhaps you could plan to 'linger for a while' in the clubhouse after the game to sort of make up for having to cancel our Christmas party last Saturday.

Don't forget that our regular New Year's Eve family disco get together is on again from 8.00pm to a small hour. This really is one for all ages with children, teens and family groups most welcome. Adults £5 just to cover the cost of the disco with under 18's free. This has become a really fun and enjoyable event particularly for those who are unable or unwilling or just 'past it' to go on the razz down town!

Well done to all players and managers of all three teams as we continue to make progress on the pitch. My thanks also to those individuals who are supporting the club financially - even if simply through the 100 club.

We have set out this year to try and be more reasonable and responsible in covering players' travel expenses and introducing a very modest first team win bonus. To fund this requires 'new' money (ie other than that we raise to run the club as always). Four club members have contributed in a very generous way to cover these costs up to Christmas. We now need to widen that net to keep these new funds coming in - so don't be embarrassed to contact me! Ten new people offering just £1 a day would be a start and make a difference.

So, on that thoughtful note.....CHEERS

Mr Chairman
