[Archived] Pro-Active Meeting

[oldjamfan1]

How about doing it on a Saturday afternoon during a Rovers home match.

Boycotters can meet up to listen to the match on the radio. Match goers come along afterwards.

Might be the best time to get everyone together

Sensible idea

Mill Hill WMC club charges a minimal amount for the function room from memory, maybe the Fernhurst upstairs function room would be free?

I just bobbed in Fernhurst to ask about the room upstairs.

They cant do monday or Thursday nights but others nights are ok.

Usually 40 quid but they said they would probably do it for free as its a load of blokes who will drink beer...and because its us.

Baxenden Village Club has a free to hire function room as I recall (I do live over the road), I could confirm this by tonight, latest.

Though, obviously somewhere in Blackburn would be better for the majority!!

It's 100% free of charge.

Upstairs at Ewood WMC?

Side room at Navigation?

Pool room at Fox and Hounds?

Ok so if Glen is available... Next Wednesday at the Fernhurst? If they charge us it'll be about a quid or 2 each.

Having received a number of emails, messages, tweets and calls over the last few weeks, regarding the stagnation of the campaign.

Many have been request for me to pick the mess back up and bring it all back together.

I would like to call a meeting for any supporter to attend who would like to play a pro-active role in getting this campaign back on track.

You do not need to send your CV, you just need to have a bit of spare time to work on initiatives which are put together, with the aim of keeping the pressure on, on all fronts. This meeting is really for anyone who wants to help. You don't need to be a member of a group , whilst if you are , you are also welcome to attend.

I spoke with a few before the open meeting tonight who were very disappointed no progress is being made.

I have never been one for sitting around and waiting for things to happen and aim to take a full hands on approach, whatever that may entail, to finish what was started 5 years ago.

Please come together and help get this back on track.

If anyone has any ideas, RE venue , dates etc feel free to comment.

Please look at this, as not just another meeting, but one which will bare fruits, I'm like a dog with a bone, when I put my back into something , I do so with 100% commitment , as I know no other way.

Nice... Well played Glen

Im in as well..

Count me in

[Reedy You're A Star]

It's been a week since WAR told me there was a leaflet / info in the offing. Glen / Mark / Paul (BRFCAG), do you have or know of anyone that can print these in bulk for a reasonable cost? If anyone is willing to distribute them at games, please PM me some delivery details and how many you want and I'll get them delivered direct to you (to save costs of getting them delivered here and then forwarding them on). Would it be worth having a batch delivered to wherever the meeting ends up being held and distributed to willing leafleters on the night?

Feel free to take them and use them / modify them in any way you like. We just need to stop wasting any more time, we'll have already missed 1 home game since I asked WAR for help.
