Goosey - not sure how you'd manage blagging a discount, but then I'm not the marketing guy; perhaps someone could ask Helen... oh that's right, she's been made redundant. Shame, she'd probably have come up with something...
I suppose all you can do is appeal to the community spirit of local pubs and shops. Pubs shouldn't be too hard, if people know they'l get a discount they may well pop in to a particular pub instead of a different one, especially on a match day when they might have the shirt on anyway.
Also, it's a way of 'sponsoring' the club without having to part with too much cash. Perhaps a cheap pie in Smithie's, for those Silsdenites wearing a pair of Cougar underpants?!

I always knew those Cobbydalers were a bit on the wierd side.



Getting your ar$e out for a cheap growler

Are you calling our local butcher and pillar of the community a cheap growler?

That's growler as in Yorkshire speak for a Pork Pie, not as in Lorraine Kelly's "growler" in Bo Selecta!

I know, but I'm hoping Andy sees it and takes offence - call it a bit of pre-match entertainment!

Sorry a bit late but these are the minutes from the Fundraising meeting 13/9/10

· Rachel to put a story about the Cougar Stompers on the website (actioned within the meeting)

· A Christmas party will be held on behalf of all supporters, sponsors, etc, in the Hall of Fame in December – unfortunately girls the best I can do is Friday 26th November unless we have it in the Diamond Suite where there are some dates available in December? Let me know. There will be free food but the drinks will have to be paid for. Fund raising activities such as a Festive Quiz and Stand Up Bingo will be organized

· A Race night will be held on 27th December after the Dudley Hill match (according to Colin we’ll sell horses at the Keighley Select match on 19th December). GF to see Colin next week.

· A “Back to School” party will be organized for Friday 21st January. All players will be invited as well as all supporters

· A Casino night has been organized for Saturday 13th November

· We need to discuss re-invigorating the Supporter’s Club – GF to speak to Colin

· We need to sort something out for the 40th man raffle

· We should discuss further the concept of the season ticket holders receiving benefits to attract further fans in (e.g. 4 free vouchers for the season for new faces)

· There should be cheaper lager in bigger bottles

· We need to develop a mascot package

· We should develop a Keighley Young Achievers/Freddie’s Friends process where it culminates down at Cougar Park

· Gale’s son Joe will be the MC/DJ for next season – thank you Joe!

All good.
