Presentation night

[Batley Bob]

Short notice? Not kidding,too short, already out elsewhere and why are we putting money over someone else's bar when Kev chews on about selling a grand's worth of ale? Fail to see a) what's the rush and b) what are the obstacles causing the rush.

Players will have holidays have booked

It's school term-time now, half-term is 1 week, but....

not all players have kids , so cheaper to go now rather than half time, but agree about short notice as out else where on friday , more notice would have come up for it

So the club only just found out now ? 
Assume they all booked there holidays this week then and only just told the club ? Hence the short notice announcement …

Players went to magaluf  for a end of season trip on Sunday after booking it Friday so anything could of happened within the lives of the team

This is absurd !!

"Let's decide to have an Awards Night in 2 days time" and even better we will do it off club premises so no money will be made in the process !! Absolutely brilliant !! What kind of organisation is this ??

When will common sense take over e.g. we know when the season starts , we know when it finishes . Consequently , at the start of the season we can surely  schedule a date so that everybody i.e. Players , Officials , Supporters can put it in their individual Diaries - it's called forward planning !

This current episode makes us look like rank amateurs

[Dogs Bawls]

Maybe some clever thought has actually been done

An excellent way of ensuring not many turn up

Ever felt you are not really wanted

thats disrespectful to amateurs as most amateur clubs will know at beginning of season when awards night will be or have in my experience .. Club keeps telling us they need money and how the hell can people make last minute plans to attend events with only a few days notice - disgraceful and no concern to the paying supporters who have been week in week out

Why don't the club have the presentation night a week or 2 before the end of the season surely by then coaches must know who's done what and who gets an award! It's ridiculous to give people a few days notice and will be a sad reflection on the club if no one turns up and for the players who deserve better from the board! also an important play off game Friday night that a lot of people are interested in. An absolute shambles!

And Leeds United are playing

Fully agree with all the above comments, they just about sum up the organisation/lack of, forethought and self-preservation angles. I DO appreciate that there are only 5 of them (inc Iro), that 4 of them have daily lives and money to earn but decisions appear sometimes to be made on the hoof. Why would we go twice a year and put say £300 a time over somebody else's bar when we need money? Why wait until the last match of the season to find out when people are available? Why is shirt launch now tight to Christmas when it used to be mid- November? Why is our website by far the worst in the entire RL, still advertising stuff long past? The questions go on. People (fans) will help at any level if approached, even a Giants fan contributes to our public face!
