It’s wittonrobbo’s 18th at Witton on the 19th Sept, so doubt it will be then…

We are waiting to confirm dates at the moment.

The Race Night has been booked in for Thursday 2nd October, and tickets are now available from members of the Supporters Tea, Neil Wilson, Pete Lyon, and from the Club Shop.

We will need a couple of races to be sponsored for £10 a race, and also horses and jockeys to be sponsored.

As previously, we will need bottles of wine to be donated if possible to offer as prizes for the winning horses and jockeys.

Thanks.

Race Night tickets will be in the Club shop on Saturday, as will the Tri Cast sheet if anybody would like a go on that (only 50 pence per go).

Anybody who has volunteered a bottle, if you can also leave that in the Club shop.

Thanks.

Not sure I can make it but I will sponsor a race for £10
WHS.

Thanks WHS. If you can leave the money with Neil Wilson that’d be great.

Should be there on Saturday, God and the wife willing. I will sell half time tickets again if required. Tell Neil to grab me then for the tennere.
WHS.

Just a reminder that Race Night is this Thursday.

All races are sponsored, but i will be coming round tomorrow looking for people to sponsor horses and jockeys (only £2 a pop).

I think we could still do with some bottles of wine tho if anybody can drop one off tomorrow night in the Club shop. Thanks.

I will see if I can get there in time to donate another bottle, I am working at an open night at school.

Robbo, Clarkey and others have put a lot of work in to organise this event.

Please support the event, even if you only come for a couple of races.

Entrance £3 pay on the door.

All proceeds to the development fund to support YOUR team.

Yes as above, please do support the Race Night on Thursday. The support that everyone gives to these event have a direct influence on the team that we are able to field on a matchday - so it is VITAL that we raise as much money as possible when the opportunity is there to do so.

Again, we do need bottles of wine to be dropped off tonight. Also we have horses and jockeys to be sponsored at just £2 each.

We have to squeeze every last penny out of these events at the moment, so please do show your support in whatever way you can.

Derek, can you do the tote again with the Lyons?

Sorry Robbo never replied - from my discussions I think Derek was ok to do the tote as well.

I have 4 bottles for the events at my house which have already been donated.

Not a problem Robbo!

Thanks Derek!! Have lost your number so couldn’t text you to ask!!

Neil, is 4 bottles the total that we have? As we need 16!!

4 was all I have - 2 from me, 1 from WHS and I think the other was from Picko.

OK!!

Couldn’t get to the game tonight, Open Night at School went on a lot longer than I expected. I will put a tenner in an envelope and post it at Witton for Andy Chad on Thursday, use it as you see fit Andy. Sorry about the promised bottle, hope the tenner will do as a replacement. No report on the game on the site as yet, has it gone to penalties or something?
WHS.

Down 1-3

Don’t forget; Race Night tonight!!

BIG thanks to the following race sponsors;
Mickey Toones
The Doc
Stanways Bakery
Alan Lowe (aka WHS)
J P Ceramics
Witton Albion FC
Witton Albion Supporters FC
The Wincham Rabbit

Also a thanks to Terry Holland for his kind contribution, and also to everyone who sponsored horses and jockeys.

We are still about 3 or 4 bottles light if anybody could bring one along tonight.

Doors will be open from about 7.30pm, with the first race at 8pm.

It is a good opportunity to bring along other people who don’t normally come to watch Witton play. We had a great night last year, and raised a significant amount towards last season’s target. Let’s hope that we can do the same again tonight.

I have managed to prise a bottle out of the Mrs’ hands, which is quite remarkable in itself!

I’ll bring it down this evening!
