    Hi everyone,

    Well another season has passed and another successful one for The Fans Forum Sponsor Club.

    Time to reflect on things and look to next season. We shall be holding a low key informal meeting to discuss a few things in late June.

    It will probably be on a Tues/Weds/Thursday evening in a venue yet to be decided. The weeks we're looking at would be 16,17,18th June or 23,24,25th June depending on which suits the majority of attendees somewhere local to Eastville/Horfield area. Around say 7.30pm.

    If you would like to join us to ask any questions or suggest some ideas please let us know so we can gauge numbers, it would be great to see you.

    ....and once again thanks to everyone who has supported as members, joined us in Hospitality, pledged a GasBill or just had a good word to say about us. Together we have raised around £12,000 for the club we love.

    Many thanks, JTS and Parrot.

    Put me down to come along if there will be women there in just their bra's like that picture :)

    If not then no worries :(

    When do you want to start collections for next season? Or is that going to be discussed at the meeting? :)

    Cheers CJ, we normally start collecting after the Fun Day (which wasn't much fun last year - ha ha)

    Hopefully, bigger, better and more money raised next season mate.

    At present we have 16 expressing they may come along.

    Ok, i will ask the football club if we can use a room , but that is unlikely in close season. If not too many more want to come we can probably just meet in a pub, but if more are likely i will consider booking the Lounge at The Civil Service Club, Filton Avenue.


    Thanks everyone, quite impressed with that, although i was hoping it was gonna me and Parrot with two pints and a bag of nuts saying "Everything's good and that concludes the meeting...see you again"

    The meeting in the picture that JTS added in comment 1 shows a bird in just a bra. If the meeting is going to be like that then count me in ;)

    Just awaiting confirmation from venue, but unless i tell you all otherwise:

    Thursday 18th June 7.30pm The Sportsman,Nevil Road, Bristol, Bristol, BS7 9EQ

    Thought it made sense to use a venue who support rovers, are fellow members of The 1883 Club and are next seasons Home Shirt sponsors.

    Hope to see a few of you there :emoticon-0100-smile
