Brimmo Working Parties

[Squadron Leader]

The maintenenace work is well under way at Brimmo, the Pitch has been verti-drained, Goal Mouths dug up and loads of top soil & sand spread across the pitch & I believe that the re-seeding took place yesterday, so the rain we have had overnight was most welcome.

 

There is still a lot of work to be done, Dressing Rooms to be painted, Fence Panels repaired & the new Board Room to be finished, so if you can spare any time to lend a hand that would be most welcome.

 

Sunday working Parties are from 10.00am till about 1.00pm, but Frank & Co are ususally at the ground most days.

Is there any plan for evening working parties as well?

New boardroom? Where's that situated SL?

[lovely stuff]

In a container/porta cabin, i think.

It's the old wooden shack just inside the gates.

It was the boys changing room before it ran into disrepair, and was considered unsafe.

Now that ETFC are barred from the lounge bar, by Goldsdown Sports, we can spend ETFC money on doing up the wooden shack, allegedly!

I would have thought that the exenditure is coming out of the Goldsdown Holding account, especially as ETFC need every penny they can get to prepare for the QE2 stadium.

Far too complex to go into on here, but lets just say they "Brimmo" want it as a "Members Bar" now

Re-seeded late,because of all the "extra" games played on the pitch after the Season ended

So as members of Enfield Town who are joint partners in Goldsdown Holdings aint we all members anyway?

[Squadron Leader]

You would think so, but it does not seem to be the case.

 

Me, well I am a member of both ETFC & Brimsdown Sports & Social Club, does not help me much though

[townerboy]

well we'll be gone in a year, and "all" of their members can watch brimmo slowly get destroyed by the vandals.

[lovely stuff]

I think all this higlights why it was so crucial to secure the QE and have full control over the running of our own facility.Lets hope that us having a joint lease at Brimsdown in the future benifits us both financially and in using it as a second base for reserve matches/pitch hire and functions.etc.Otherwise why have the hassle of continuing the joint lease (and to continue doing most of the work down there??)

[bdave]

Just to clarify, members in terms of use of the lounge bar means members of Brimsdown Sports and Social Club and/or Enfield Town Supporters Society.

[Father Jack]

Which begs the question, why can we not use it for boardroom facilities any longer?
