RIght, cracking night, got a bit merry but sobered up as the night went on. Great to see some people I havent seen for a while. Also it seems that a few of the players and family check this site quite often to see the fans view on how things are. Most popular comment was "who are you lot slagging off this week?" Bed time ta ra
Good thing I'm always so nice.
I LOVE THEM ALL.
(Especially Hamer and JJ. And Waggy... And Solly.)
I sent a couple of mates in my place (they sat on Hollands and Taylor's table) and they echoed the above comments of what a great bunch of lads they were with an overwhelming feeling of how much the players got on and the respect they have for the manager.
Special night that it's great to see lots of lifers get a chance to attend. B no need to worry about the pics hon, looking fab xxxx Clear to see everyone had a lovely time!
A very good evening. Thanks Brenda for all the organising. Was on a table with Dale Stephens and Jordan Cousins. It was Jordan's first sponsors do and he was a bit shy, but a very likeable young man. Dale Stephens was a top host and very chatty. All the lads are really looking forward to Vegas but they dont know where they are staying. A good deal brokered through the season if they got promoted. Good chat with Chris Solly and Rhoys Wiggins but Rhoys is a bit miffed Solly's got a song and he hasn't, especially as he is bigger than Chris and from the horses mouth Solly is not 5 foot three. Waggie was impressed Colin Walsh Love Child was getting up before six this morning for work and commented now thats a poper job then said the players have all got Wednesday off.
All the players were very approachable and very chatty and there was such a feel good factor.
Now for them rules about next years tickets ... those who went last night get first refusal? Gets my vote
I can only echo what everyone else has said. It was a great night with great people. The players were all top drawer and only to happy to have a chat and sign shirts all night.
A couple of players did confirm Pixie Lott is a go..Yessss!!
Icing on the cake for me was a message from Sir Chris Powell to my kids on my phone and then got a private message from Danny Green to my daughter (Who is in love with him ;-) when I played it to her this morning she went all shy and hid her face....LOL
Looks like you all had a great night, good to read some of the comments re what the players are like and think.
Looking at the amount of photos she is in and the fact that where's Olly seems to have droppd off the page I think our "photo shoppers" need to start a where's Curb_it :-)
Dazzler it was only red robin I think that didn't make it. Or I didn't meet him anyway.
Met lots of new lifers tho which was great. All nice people.
Oh large I found out some gossip. They all packed their disco gear on the carlisle trip just in case they went up so they could all get changed at nearest house and go straight up.
Forgot to say, I had a chat with Crouchy and he is a super lad, who is looking forward to a chance of playing in front of The Valley crowd.
Many of the players commented about coming to us from teams with 1000 - 5000 home gates, to playing for us in front of many times that. It has taken a bit of getting used to for a few of them.
I'm very fortunate to have won 3 times out of the last 4 years. This was such a good night out I'm considering sponsoring a player next season to ensure that I don't miss out just in case I don't come up in the CL draw again.
Very enjoyable evening with Jason Euell and Nick Pope, two of the nicest fellas you could ever meet and from all the posts the rest of the team fall in this catergory. They could definately win the popularity league and hopefully the Championship. The way this team interact socially has reflected with their success on the pitch and also with a bit of help from some fella called Chris, they say he is a Sir.

Brenda you are a Star thanks for everything x
Received quite a few strange looks at that moment

We spoke about Dale's thunder bolt against Bury in the last minute and he said that if he wasen't so tired he would have passed it out wide
Thank god he didn't!!

Who were the two blokes that i took a picture for them of CP? Recognise the faces.
that picture of Buckshee and Thommo... notice everyone is looking at Robbo on the Wing. I shudder to think what he was saying?!
Must've thought I was Peter Garland
