received membership card, keep up the good work guys! whats on tap at BB? just so i can tattoo my order to my wrist for when i stagger to the bar after leaving my memory in my empty basket of wedges...
 
Beer taps in no particular order - Guinness, Speights Gold, Lion Brown, Macs Hop Rocker, Macs Sassy Red, Macs Gold, Speights Old Dark, Oranjeboom, Steinlager, Macs Great White, Stella Artois, Kilkenny. Plus large bottle beer range, and over 30 different wines by the glass if you are that way inclined. Prices are pretty reasonable on the night also. How does $0.00 sound?
Remember you need your Yellowfever card for entry.

Remember people, the fevercard is required for the free drinks, so make sure you have one.  PM me if you have applied, but still not received it.
 
You do not want to be the only person there paying cash over the bar because you could not be bothered to send an email.

All I do is make the stuff I would've liked
Reference things I wanna watch, reference girls I wanna bite
Now I'm firefly like a burning kite
And yousa fake fuck like a fleshlight

this is our chance to show the squad how much we support them.  Get in amongst them, and let them know we are behind them all the way.
 
Hey, you can even buy them a drink (it is a free bar)

Well I guess that makes the free bar even better....more money for merchandise!

I'm thinking of maybe bringing my digital camera and taking some shots, could even take some video clips. Sound like a good idea, yea/nay? I'll happily take photos of anyone else with their fave players if they wish

I wont be have to meet the other half a bit later  and she has issued strict instructions dont turn up drunk or wearing that "bloody shirt"so i figure it best to do at least one of the things she says to keep the peace.

Given i have given her a list which has about 23 dates on which not to bother organizing anything including not going away in the New Year,think im still winning on deal. Mind you i think it my cost me plenty in the off season.

Sky Sport 3 is showing the U-17s v Brazil from live 8pm tomorrow night!  Just one more reason to get together and kick off the season - especially if some of the Brazilian contingent are going to be there...

I'm up for a YF beanie, especially as I haven't much in the way of natural insulation on top, but I'm sorry I just can't wear a pastel yellow T-Shirt, even if it has a picture of our saviour on it.

I want a YF beanie. For some reason, I thought we'd said RYOS had them? I popped in to grab a couple of Phoenix shirts today - but no YF beanies.
 
I wish I could be at the Backbencher tonight. Trouble is, I have two other conflicting functions -
Why is everyone arranging stuff for August 18 - d'oh! I might see if I can nip in to the BB, after leaving function number 1 early, to buy a beanie on my way to function number 2. I'll have to leave the beer and the socialising to the rest of ya.... go easy on the guests, they have a game next week

tim browne said a few words, didn't sing a song though.

clebo is definitely the crowd favorite, he has the best smile ever.
