Re: Ground Maintenance Area
We are badly in need of a wheelbarrow if anyone has a spare or one they don't use please. The one we have is rusty and has holes in it now. We will be most grateful.
Re: Ground Maintenance Area
The breaker is back. It had been borrowed and not returned to the maintenance area. Also on of the 240 - 110 boxes is back. Their is two more in the stewards room along with a 50m extention. The breaker is in full working order. The first two of the old floodlight bases have been removed how ever the rubble will be removed next week. Too much dust for my chest so had to give up today. Can't make this Sunday but will see you good peeps next time.

Re: Ground Maintenance Area
The good news is the concrete breaker has turned up! over the moon with that as we thought it had gone forever, and it would’ve been another £150 to replace it.
Many thanks to the people who have donated items in the last 24 hours. We have a brand new 30m extension cable off a gentleman who has helped us before, and a couple of second hand ones....now no one dies
We’ve also been given have a couple of really useful transformers. Another supporter who wishes to remain anon has offered to buy us a brand new wheelbarrow. All very generous offers, thank you.
If anyone else has anything they have surplus to requirements - from hand saws to battery drills to jigsaws, screws....anything, we’ll gladly give them a new home.

We didn't underestimate them, we just didn't think they were that good.

Re: Ground Maintenance Area
A swift response to a request for a wheelbarrow. I wasn't expecting a new one so many thanks to the person who has kindly donated this.
Our fans never fail to amaze me.

Re: Ground Maintenance Area
A good morning Andy. Another twelve people all doing their bit.
Elaine, Mable & Mike all cleaning, the place is spotless again.
Mike & Mable also hung a few framed signed/shirts in the club shop and reception area.
The GMA has a three hour sort out by myself, Tommy, IRVJ and Peter...all electric tools under lock and key.
The two leccy’s had a look at the power for the new porta-loo, but we think we’ve come up with a better plan for the toilet situation on the popside. We’ll see how that goes in the coming weeks.
Big Al give the main stand and surrounding areas a good clean.
Alan painted out the remaining wall in the pie/can bar and did the rest of the painting of the tiles in the X Bar toilets.
A few bigger plans for the coming months to be discussed with the BoDs.
I know everyone seems to be after cash atm but if anyone feels like they can donate a few quid, it’d go a long way. Same as the tools we’ve previously mentioned, anything donated saves us spending cash on them.
We didn't underestimate them, we just didn't think they were that good.

Re: Ground Maintenance Area
Nothing planned for tomorrow Mike...except a lie-in
Many thanks to the three people who have donated money and tools this week. One is a cracking DeWalt battery drill still in its case, another donation of tools is being dropped off at the ground this week and one of the directors just told me he has £100 off an anon donator.
All greatly appreciated.

Re: Ground Maintenance Area
Down on numbers today due to holidays. Wonder if they went to the same place as the Halifax keeper
Even less next week as due to repeated lateness we have had to send a couple of volunteers back to their parent clubs
Elaine was busy doing what she does best in the crossbar and corporate rooms with Tommy's daughter
Ian was busy destroying the maintenance tools and trying to wipe out the sparkys with his mould remover.
New toilet doors and gate doors have been painted by Tommy and iRv
Stadium part tidied.
Lighting in the toilets on the popular side has been reinstated
Other Electrical jobs have been identified for next weeks session.
Thanks to Bob in cafe for the buns.
Might of missed something but I'm sure Ian will be along later to correct me.
