Would you be interested in an NSC end of season meal?

[Bozza]

Hmmmm. Not a bad idea! Everyone knows where it is, easy parking and some of our cash goes to the club. I can see that some may not want to do the AMEX, but it's got to be worth consideration, shirley?

I believe it would immediately rule out this being a more 'value' proposition.

They're doing Xmas parties starting at £28/head including a disco. Not that I'm saying that we would want a disco, I hasten to add; but if they can do that for £28 each, maybe it's not out of reach? Anyway.... your call, of course!

Plus to be honest if I'm going to get BATTERED until the wee hours The Amex is one of the last places in Brighton I'd want to be in at the end, trying to get home.

Taxi Controller - I've got a request for 50 cabs as soon as possible. It's for a group of football fans, they're steaming and you'll have to go through Moulescoomb twice.

Every cabbie in Brighton - tell them there's a £20 flag fall and the vomit penalties have just been doubled.

It was enough of an effort getting the Tax Man 10 yards after the Centenary do.

Are we allowed to protest against the world elites at the party?

Will there be Piglet's Pies on offer?

End of meal disco is a magnificent idea

I had considered it would be the most appropriate late night snack thing, brought in when people are getting peckish again.

As long as @Husty saves me the last dance, in a manly way of course

Oh FFS! I just knew that I shouldn't have included that sub-clause!

There would also be a Royal Rumble style bout with Uncle Spielberg taking on the bullies. It would start with just him and Hans Kray Fan Club in the ring, with a new bully entering every two minutes.

with Hans already being a past rumble winner i'm not sure it would be fair on the others to have him in it, even if he does start with number 1.

How about at The Amex? They might even do chips for us?

I think the amex have priced out the fans,ask the supporters club

 

[hitony]

I had best be there....well who else will moderate the evening If I bring my laptop I can issue live infractions!!

Only one issue I have with doing live infractions......my laptop is about 16 inches wide.......my backside isn't!!!

 

[saafend_seagull]

Ok, I'll start:

Q1: Who's going to take all the flak because something goes ever so slightly wrong for an individual on the night and they clearly can't be expected to wo/man up to deal with it?

a) Barber
b) Bozza
c) Burke
d) Bloom
e) Some other guy whose name starts with a "B" (Oh God, my first name does )

I'm definitely "in". Whoever ends up organising this (early bets make Bozza odds-on) will have a difficult enough time sorting a venue, date, attendance lists to give to the venue for food, etc. etc. that I'm sure they could do without grief from people whose only contribution will be to drop a little cash, turn up and have a good time.

Barnes seems the obvious choice, or even Bruno now!

No, no, no - surely it would be better to arrange for the pies to be at a central point for people to pick up on the way to the party ?

 

[The Oldman]

Will there be a discount for seniors and chips?

I like the idea but my attendance will depend if I may be excused frequently , you know, like Private Godfrey.

 

[MissGull]

As I'm a veggie, you can rest assured that the veggie option willbe sensational and not sodding risotto.

Maybe we can have our own NSC vegetarian night out? I say this as a fellow veggie.

 

[Lady Whistledown]

The quiz thing sounds like a decent idea. The raffle is an utterly shit idea, unless you like watching Lush & Superphil repeatedly make trips to the stage

Many years ago, myself and my fellow Scars & Stripes co-editors ran an end of season meal. I can't recall where now - some hotel on Hove seafront. It seemed to go quite well.

I know the club run several of these sort of things now at the Amex, but they are relatively pricey and it strikes me as more than some people could or would want to pay.

So, would you be interested in attending a less swish and, frankly, cheaper end of season meal if one existed? I'm thinking...

Brighton/Hove central-ish location
3 course meal
Some alcohol included (maybe)
Some vaguely Albion-ish special guests
Raffle (proceeds to REMF?)
Possiby some light-hearted NSC awards (or maybe not - possibly a bit cringey)

To be clear - the intention wouldn't be to do something cheap and rubbish, but to offer something a more affordable pricepoint to more fans. Target pricepoint to be, say, £30 give or take.

This might be a completely shit idea, but I won't know if I don't ask.

Would there be a reduction if i didn't want the pudding and didn't want alcohol included?

Discrimination against omnivores there.
