Title: Whits. Farewell Tour.
Post by: herthab on Wednesday, June 21, 2017, 13:53:55
There was a lot of talk about organising a weekend away at some northern dump as a tribute to Whits. Now the fixtures are out and before any planning is done, how many are up for It?

Rather depends which northern dump it is, but I will keep an eye on the thread, although it would mean meeting people in the flesh and not sure I want that  ;)

Once I've gauged interest I thought we could do a poll listing the northern dumps and the dates. Highest vote wins.

Exactly my thoughts!  :D

I didn't know Whits, but I do love a piss up and I'm sure he'd approve of that.  Depends on the date etc., but why not?

Poll is a good idea. Didn't know him personally but would be great to have a decent away game in his name.

Ha, sorry. I don't mean to be difficult but with living an hour away it does depend. I'd like to be involved though!

Yea should be, I'll be happy to drive as well, though I don't think I can drive the big 16 seater bus...

Yep, count me in as long as I can make it. I'd probably be travelling from oop north so would likely meet you there.

If i can make, that'd be great. Be nice to remember Whits in such company.

Dunno about a weekend away..but I'd be up for going to a northern game and seeing him off in a drunken manor.

May not be a great idea but maybe whatever day we go with this year could be the date or closest to it every year kind of a memorial weekend event every year

I'd also add that if there's a minibus involved, there has to be a stop-off at Chieveley services.

I haven't organised anything. I started a new job in June, not making excuses but it slipped off my radar. I'm still up for going, but it's a bit late to organise mini buses.

Not accusing anyone, these things happen. I'll be there so if anyone's going come and say hi.
