Good luck to you and your team , see that you play in the Bromley and district as my team did last year. Very difficult to get sponsorship and financial help in football. We left the BDL and joined the South London Alliance this season and have done well and secured a sponsor. Having difficulty securing a training pitch after 7.30 as there is more demand than supply in Bexley/Greenwich. The 7 a side pitch's at goals are both expensive and small. Good luck to you we are playing junior reds next week as it happens.....
We have 268 votes so far with 61 in lead but there are now 10 teams with over 100 votes each and some of the teams have ranked up quickly over the weekend.
We would love to reach 300 by Wednesday then to have 400 by the deadline would be awesome. We will continue asking for more votes to secure the prize.

Ken - what is the name of your team? I totally agree with you on what you have said. It is always a massive struggle to find sponsors to support the team financially. Our away games for the National Deaf Cups is always difficult to organise because of how expensive things are such as hotels, mini-bus hire (Petrol) and food/drinks. Last season, we have travelled to Liverpool, Birmingham, Leeds and Bristol so it was a very expensive season for us, as a team.
We are always looking for funding, so to those who would like to donate to the team using PayPal or debit card: go to http://www.cadfc.com/ and there is a donate button on the homepage.
Just checked and its now 49 in the lead. A team called Basildon Barbarians FC was 8th yesterday with only 115 and now they have 235 already in a day to reach 2nd place. They are all catching up quickly. Three are now 6 teams with 200 votes so it will be very tight.
We need more votes to break the 300 votes barrier and this only can happen if those who haven't voted, vote for us!
So please pass this onto your friends and family to help the deaf team to win this competition.
Yes AFKABartram, I will be looking into other sites soon to gain more votes. Thank you for bringing it up. I will look into alldeaf website and post a thread on there. Hopefully they will help and vote.
In 2nd Placed - Basildon Barbarians now have 253 so they are only 32 votes behind.
Just wondering, how many people are registered on this forum?
Suddenly two teams have overtaken us throughout the night. I don't know how they get so many votes in a short period of time. So we are currently 3rd but its not the place we want to be. We want to reach the top spot again so please can you ask your friends and family to vote.

I have just checked and we now got 304 but the first placed team got 412 which made a big surprise as they were on 200 only two days ago. Really am curious on how they get that many votes in a short period of time.
Anyway, the deadline have been extended by Phones4u to Monday 22nd October and that is just under 2 weeks left. So that is plenty of time for other teams to catch up with us which is what we don't want at all.
Could you spread the word about this to help us gain more votes please?
I have spread the word on twitter with the help of the players in CAFC first team which is great but that is not enough so we need to continue in asking people to vote.
