You stick to hiding behind your screen. What I will say tho is you
Have a problem with Ian you have one with a lot of us who are involved
With the gma you spiteful little rat. Now go scurry off to your little hole
And don't come back. Will I get banned off daddy now !!!!

Rock on Tommy!

I always thought Strawberry was Duran Reynolds http://barrowafc.net/viewtopic.php?f=2& ... rs#p259401

However, I doubt it now that a superb professional like Duran would stoop to rather poor trolling and wind-ups.

We dropped a chopsaw/bench saw off yest morn
And also a pallet truck and before we here it again
It's brand new been used as little as three or four times
And prob the most important thing is its been pat tested
Also from what my gaffa said we'll pat test other gear
Free of charge for gma if and when needed.
Lecks were there taking away them dance board things
As well. Would say thay'll be used as shuttering of some kind
Hopfully we'll have a next Sunday morn on ? Ian ?

We'll be at the ground this coming Sunday morning for anyone who has a few hours to spare.

As well as the normal on-going projects such as the press box & painting out of the first aid room we'll be making a start on converting the BDF shop into the new office for the Supporters Trust.
As the open meeting for the ST is fast approaching (6th June) & the new season is getting closer, the ST will need this space for taking enquiries & signing up members on match days.

Turunstile C will be open from 9:00am.

Bit of time on your hands to do something positive "Strawberry"...............nah!

Know what you mean Tommy, it sort of happened to me as well! I'm sure mrssenorita will mention it somewhere.

felt like bruce willis this morning as it was die hard 4....yes as mentioned previous due to the exploits of alcohol...4die hards started the session off progressing the pressbox and exterior of the new trust office...but hey...its volunteering if you dont feel like it...you can stay in bed we found a way forward on doing the inside of the new trust office out and the next session maybe tuesday 6.0 or next sunday is clearing out all old units and shelves.THe half sign on the front was taken down and the white wall prepared for masonry paint. THe pressbox far end now is getting framed out to ceiling and backs and should come on quickly now most boaards are painted ready. The new saw donated from schofields got a plug and test session and will be a great asset s does all kinds of angles and tricks so thanks to all concerned for dropping that off.

On a lovely relaxed evening, the press box and the trust office took another giant leap forward. Pete Nichols and Ian Curruthers battled away with the frames in the far end of the press box but reported back at the end of the evening that the standard frames had to be altered to suit whoever built the press box,s Platers eye!!
Also it cant have been checked by our checker!!
The trust office is almost cleared out now with lots to either skip or store somewhere, the shelves all out now and the new shape and a good way forward to Peter and Frazer,s plan ready to go. Must give credit to the BDF for the stuff the amassed over the years and the really professional outfit they ran.

Me and Exile battled away taking out all kinds of shelves and counters batterns of wood and have a nice clean shell to start the re build.
My youngest daughter and Simba the dog also got a few laps of the terracing in and the dog showed great respect to the club by having a huge dump on my garden the minute we got home!!!
Onwards to Friday now and lets hope for a terrific turnout to show supporters direct and Stockport and FCUM s trusts what a great set of determined and well organised fans we are.

The pitch will be worked on this coming week by the new company & Gareth so we've been asked if we can take the goal posts out & store them safely. We'll be doing this (weather permitting) tomorrow at 4:00pm & as they're quite heavy/awkward to lift it'd be handy to have a couple of people to help us.

4:00pm & access will be through turnstile C.

Looks like the rain has blown over so if anyone can spare an hour we could do with a hand lifting out & storing the goal posts. Three going that I know of but I would think it'd take at least four.
