ALL Players sponsors. Please Read !!

[Eastern]

As part of our sponsorship we are given tickets to a sponsors function, B&F, and ??? other functions. Last year we conducted a raffle to find who amongst us was lucky enough to get to attend these functions, which was a fantastic idea.

I believe that Mr Magic SHOULD be given one of these in 2009 in appreciation of all the work he has done in organizing the whole thing, collecting the monies etc. The function he attends should be the one of HIS CHOICE.

If anyone else thinks this is FAIR ENOUGH please post below.

Sorry Mr Magic. You DON'T get a say in the matter !!

[GrumpyOne]

Fair enough.

Thanks Eastern but I categroically would not accept it.

My intention actually is to give 2 of my remaining 4 shares away (1 each to Homework and RalphySaints35) although they don't know about it yet.

As for the other 2, 1 I'll keep and the other I'm still deciding on who to donate it to.

Mr Magic. Read the bottom line..........AGAIN !!

[PLUGGER14]

I agree.

[zebraman]

I agree.

Ditto

[Ghost Like]

Sounds fair to me. If Mr Magic feels uncomfortable with being given this then his name can always be drawn first "and no further correspondence shall be entered into."

[fonz_#15]

i also agree..2 years in a row he has been the sole reason this has happened

Thanks Eastern but I categorically would not accept it.

Who asked for your opinion?

[n1ck]

I agree.

[saintbrat]

just of note
the first 'piece'
of the sponsorships is attendance at the Seasons launch ( unlike last year when it was a sponsors dinner)

not sure when this will be held - but will obviously be before Rd 1 of Home and Away- mid March

In Short- the draw for the tickets to this event will need to be drawn early for those succesfull to make arrangements.
that will be 4 lucky sponsors first up.

[St Fidelius]

Sounds fair to me. If Mr Magic feels uncomfortable with being given this then his name can always be drawn first "and no further correspondence shall be entered into."

I love this idea

[Raven]

I like the idea, but of course we can't make MM take it if he doesn't want it.

[Iceman234]

I'll third this idea.

MM deserves a night out on us all for the great work he does.

But he would also be expected to return a full run-down of the night's events, so it wouldn't be such an easy ride...

[Armoooo]

Yeah I agree with Iceman, in return for the tickets he MUST do a writeup, I think that is completely fair.

Also MM, if you don't take the tickets we will have them go to waste, do you want that on your conscience buddy

[santazzi]

Great Idea Eastern. Fully supported. If Mr Magic continues to protest I have the solution. If I win I donate the winning to him if he refuses to accept it goes unused. If you all follow me Mr Magic has no choice but to accept Eastern's offer endorsed by all of us!!!!!!!

[WayneJudson42]

no argumen ts here. Need a date? I look good in a skirt.

We'll take your word for it mate

[Dal_Santos_Gal]

I agree with everyone else Mr Magic.
I honestly think you deserve to take one of the prizes that are up for grabs. It a huge thing you do in arranging a sponsorship and the fact that you donate shares is truly saintsational

[goodie]

Got my support

[St Fidelius]

Mr Magic you have been definitely outvoted, brilliant suggestion from you Eastern.

[djsburke]

i agree, give them to mr magic

Tis already under control and being arranged.

Will be done in essence the same way as the last 2 I have done ( ie one share = one ticket = one chance of winning a prize) except that this one will have a pre-season draw for the first occuring prize.

The others can all drawn together at say the first home game. TBA

Firstly I want to congratulate Mr Magic on the terrific work he has done. Clearly this would not have happened if he hadn't put his hand up.

BUT

In all honesty this sets a dangerous precedent. I can immediately think of lots of other hard working people on the saintsational site. For one; all the moderators who give generously of their time (for years and years).

For the person who does all the organising for the footy matches played between saintsational and other forums etc.

It would have been very easy to give away all the prizes to "hard working" volunteer saintsational people. People could argue why shouldn't we?

Where do these generous gestures start and stop? I have no doubts Mr Magic did this because he has passion and loves the Saints as we all do. As do all the other hard working volunteers on this board.

I agree
I concur
100% spot on.

Whilst the sentiment behind this is greatly appreciated, I feel I should be treated exactly the same as any other member of the sponsorship group with exactly the same chances of winning any prizes as everybody else.
