Claire! - Ladies Night

[GHA EFM]

How's it coming along?

[Claire!]

Stop taking the p1ss GHA

[GHA EFM]

First of all, when did I start taking the piss?

 

Secondly, I wasn't taking the piss. I was wondering if the thing had taken off after what you described as a slow start.

Take that as "not too well", GHA.

A sore topic, I believe.

A doomed idea from the start, gives me no pleasure to see that my suspicions have been confirmed.

I did try and warn Ms Baxter a few weeks back that no-one would be interested, but I was told to fk off, mind my own business, and that it would be a major success.

Hate to say I told you so, as the Hives sung in 2002, but...

[GHA EFM]

Yeah, I'll take a guess at not too well then.

 

Sorry for asking.

[Claire!]

GHA, when ever a conversation is started asking me how things are doing, it's usually doomed for critism.

 

As it stands, i can not see it happening. Everything else is fine, but we can not advertise and therefore we cannot attract the ladies' attentions as the only people who come to city games are male.

[GHA EFM]

What's the problem with advertising?

[Claire!]

It's against the lease aggreement on the ground or something.

[GHA EFM]

What? You can't advertise in the ground? Or you can't hold the night in the ground? What's stopping you from advertising anywhere else?

[Claire!]

You can advertise in the ground and the programme, but we wanted to advertise outside the ground as thats where we would find the ladies!!!

 

Because of the lease on the ground - we cant do that.

 

It has to be word of mouth and well, word of mouth has been negative so far, so we aint gonna get the numbers.

[YB941 5thD EFM ~soul~]

In this case, I don't think advertising would have helped to sell many tickets.

 

As I explained to the girls, all the posters would do was to tell would-be customers where they can buy tickets.

 

And no would-be customers are going to go out of their way to the football club on a matchday to pay for and pick up tickets to a night where they won't know anyone, in a clubhouse they've never been to.

 

An effort that should be applauded, but unfortunately an idea that was destined never to succeed.

 

 

[Claire!]

True. Still at least we tried which is more than some people have done. Suggestions are always thrown about, but never acted upon. We acted upon ours. Have done everything, but the one thing we can't get is the audience.

[GHA EFM]

Can't you advertise stating that tickets are available on the night? Thus telling ladies where and when to be? Or is that too risky?

 

Has the whole thing been cancelled then?

[Claire!]

Hasn't been cancelled at all, but where are we going to find the ladies?!!!!!!!

 

We can advertise at all outside of the ground. Laz can clarify much more as he understands it better than i do, but no posters or advertisements can be done.

 

Doesn't even matter if we do say tickets available on night - how will they know about the night if we can't advertise?

 

 

[YB941 5thD EFM ~soul~]

Cancel the Ladies Night.

 

Speak to Thornsy nicely about putting on an early-90's indie disco.

 

The place will be packed. Guaranteed.

 

 

[GHA EFM]

Therefore, advertise an awful lot inside the ground, and in the programme etc, get the blokes that come to City to tell the ladies they know.

 

Not cancelled? That's a good thing. How many tickets have you sold so far?

[Claire!]

We have told the blokes that come to the clubhouse to get their ladies to come. Their answers: i'm not letting my wife/girlfriend see another bloke undress/naked etc.

 

They have been totally against the idea, and i'm sure if their wives/girlfriends found out they said this, they wouldn't be happy.

 

We are putting something in the program, and have posters up, but at the moment, only a sale of 2 tickets.

 

 

[YB941 5thD EFM ~soul~]

Most wives/girlfriends would have no interest in seeing a stranger get his [****!!****] out, Claire.

 

If some stranger got his [****!!****] out and waved it at you outside the confines of the clubhouse, you'd probably be completely disgusted and would contact the police.

 

I honestly don't think I know one woman, yourself and your friends aside, to whom a stripper actually appeals in this day and age.

 

 

[GHA EFM]

You've only sold two tickets? Is that one for you, one for Baxter?

 

The tickets are £10 each, yeah?

[Claire!]

£10 each yes. Nope my mum and her mate bought the tickets!!!!!

 

Still, we have over a month to go. Maybe we'll do it, but if we can't, at least we get A* for effort!!!!!!!
