Firstly the raffle winner who kindly offered me his pass as he cant make it on Saturday...after checking with Mr Magic that hed rather not re-draw it I happily accepted and look forward to meeting many of you coming along
Secondly. Id like to thank Mr Magic for the way he's handled the process for distributiing these tickets..and in the past and future also
Ive just found out that the admins of another site have decided to just use the tix themselves rather than offer to run a raffle or have any discussion on how the tix were to be used. I guess its none of my business as Im not a shareholder or members of that site, but to me those tix are the property of EVERYONE who has a share in whoever the sponsored player is..not just the admins of the site concerned. Very disspointing to those 50-60 shareholders who paid their money IMO
So..thank you again to Mr Magic for his transparency and democracy in running our sponsorship once again
May have problems selling shares again next year methinks
Just to make things clear, this other site is not TrueSainters or Bigfooty... I will let you all use your powers of deductions to work out which site it is.
Not Saintsational, TrueSainters or Big Footy  :?Â
Well I give up  :lol:
Isn't that the mob that used to sponsor Essendon FC?

maybe ?
The stupid thing is 90% of the people who went in the sponsorship would have no idea that as part of the sponsorship package is you get this function. No point trying to advise people of this on his site as the post will just be deleted and the poster banned.
are we saying that a certain other site had a sponsorship thingy like we do yet the admin kept one of the prizes for themselves not informing the members that they could actually win that prize?

surely not
Yep spot on. Even offered a additional prize to get people to buy shares and is now claiming that prize is instead of this function... I know a few people who had shares in their sponsorship and they arent the least bit impressed...

If all the various Saints fan site sponsorship group administrators were 'clever' we could all 'exchange' prizes with each other and nobody would be the wiser!
On second thoughts, I think we'll keep the system we've been using as it seems to work well.
On another matter, as I've not heard from either the Club or anybody else I'm assuming everybody who 'won' one of our prizes has notified the club and received their ticketing information?

Maybe they should speak up...... Only been one voice on the issue posted to date that I've seen!

Well true but dont really see what benefit it would be, unless one site didnt have anyone that could attend a event...
But yea all tickets have people should have received them Friday or Monday at latest, (as long as your people contacted the club)

I think they have asked but not publicly. That would be a ban-able offence on there

no such thing happening over here or on truesainters
REAL sites with real raffles.
although steve AND the cleaner pulling up trumps in this one with joffa pulling out stings number is unheard of and is prob not likely to happening in the next 100 decades.
hope all that go give a half decent report and dont get too pissed to actually remember the night

which is pretty much what the gown is
nothing like a dress at all ffs.....even women barristers have to wear trousers or a skirt underneath.......be quite interesting if they didn't...met a few that would look comely in their bras and knickers....
