Hi all,

Hi guys just wondering if anyone has any new ideas on fundrasing or matchday entertainment for the forthcoming season. Remember we have a small budget so lets be realistic!!

Thanks

Hi Dan, i started a similar new topic. Thought about a meet and greet night with players down at Nash or other suitable venue. Maybe tie it in with the big Xmas Draw on Friday 10th Dec instead of 8th as printed on the tickets. Could do other general raffles or think bigger and do the return of The 'B' Factor. Just a thought

The half-time 'kick a goal and win a prize/some money' idea would raise a decent amount of money. All you need is a book of raffle tickets and a rugby ball. Don't know why we've never pursued this. Also, the club is losing money by not having someone on the car park entrance right up until 3 o'clock and slightly past that time, maybe 3.10. Not a dig at the club, just an observation based on experience.

How about a poster advertising season tickets on the board at the bottom of New Road - and maybe a poster at the Con Club?

"Visit Mount Pleasant and see the Cup holders" or "Come and watch the Cup holders at MP".

At least it will let people know there is a club in Batley and keeps the Cup win in their minds.

On a couple of Sunday afternoons before Christmas open up the Vice President lounge and show some old Batley matches on DVD. At the same time the club/BISSA could sell merchandise, season tickets etc.

Put on some food to sell (i.e pie and peas) and sell drinks (Hot, cold, beer, lager, wine, soft drinks etc).
With it being the run up to Christmas there will be cans of lager, beer etc on special offer in supermarkets which the club could purchase and sell/ask for a donation and make a profit.

If The Club Has Any Of Those Season Ticket Leaflets On The Front Page Of The Site I Would Gladly Trudge The Town Distributing Them.

half time supporters kick for goal comp or catch a bomb............ 2£ to play with a 50/50 cut to the club and the winning brass keeps going up week by week if there is no match day winner.

we all call the hell out of our back peddling wingers and conversion kickers so lets see if there are better bods on the terraces!

If you ever think of volunteering for organ donation after your death, please please don't tick the 'Brain' box on the form. It wouldn't even be fair to a glass jar in a school science lab if it ended up there.

Admittedly, it did tickle me. I'm just struggling to decide whether someone gave him some help with it or he spent all night awake thinking it up.

[The car park is manned by members of the diminishing Supporters Club who do so to save the Club having to pay stewards.They, of course, want to watch the match. If anyone would like to offer their help and maybe miss the first 15 minutes of the match, then please step forward. In fact match day assistance in any regard would be appreciated.

I accept that the job is done on a volunteer basis, but if a job is worth doing, its worth doing properly. Its a bit like someone volunteering for the Samaritans and hanging up on a caller because their favourite TV programme is starting. I don't know him, but is the person who volunteers for the job allowed free entry to the games as recognition for his efforts? If so, and that may not be the case at all - I'm simply speculating - does missing the first ten minutes of the game make that much of a difference?
I would also imagine that the £20-30 that is lost every home game due to the car park entrance being unmanned from around 14.55 MORE than equates to what the club would pay someone to do the job.
