Right a quick update ...
I've been in Touch with Hanley Town who say we can use thier ground free of charge.
Its highly unlikely that we would get it on a match day, but they have suggested that we use it on the bank Holiday Monday, May 5th. They have also suggested that we make the most of the day and run a fun day with the actual match being the centre piece. This is a fantastic idea in my opinion.
I am yet to contact OneValeFan, but I'll do that today.
Paul (WiseMaster) will put details up soon for those who are interested in playing. I assume places will be limited and maybe priority would be given to those who have played in OO matches in the past. Dont quote me on that though!
I've emailed Ben Howards mum and asked her for her blessing, but I'm yet to hear from her so I'll give her a call.

all good once a dat confirmed I'll sort the ref out smeegs.
Delilahs are interested in making it a tourniment between 4 teams being the outcake x2, their team and OVF which isnt a bad idea as it means more can play and ultimately more revenue for the charity.

I'll discuss it with Paul.

Right.
It looks like this could become a 4 way mini tourament with 2 semis, a 3rd place play off and obviously the final.
Obviously have to discuss this with Paul first, but it seems the better option = more cash raised

Want to play in a Charity Football Tournament?
« Thread Started on Today at 21:24 »
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Many of you may have read Smeegs posts on the Ben Howard Appeal at the top of the page
The 'Oatcake' readership has changed considerably since our last request for a team so it will be interesting to see if there are any footballers still out there
The suggestion is that we raise a team (the OO's) to play in a four way tournament against the likes of Vale, Delilas and ANO
Probably three shortish games of say fourty minutes (or 6*20).
If we get enough players then with rolling subs you could play as long or as little as you are able
Please chose your preferred dates from;
Saturday am 19th April (morning of Bristol City game at Northwood)
Monday am May 5th (Bank Holiday on Hanley Towns ground)
Sat or Sunday am later in May at the Mitch (SCFC not yet approached)

My plan is to make this a annual event, and thus Creating the "Ben Howard Sheild/Trophy" in his honour.
Does any one know of any half decent and cheapish Trophy shops?
I'm willing to put the money up for this.

I thought of popping in there Dan, but if you could mate that would be fantastic.
I'm not sure if he'd donate it, but ask how much he would do us one for and tell him what its for.
