Match Day

The weather looks good, the teams are picked and the Ralgex is in the kitbag! It’s showtime!

 

Game On

With all the playing and managing places complete all supporters are invited to come along to Stark’s Park this Sunday to cheer the players on and see some Rovers Legends once again grace the turf where they made their names.

Game kicks off at 2pm and entry is free.

 

Managers Auction Closes Wednesday

Just as with the players auction the auction for the managers spots on each team will close at 10pm this Wednesday.

 

Players Notified

All highest bidders should have received notification of the payment details and itinerary for the day. If anyone hasn’t received the information then they should contact James Proctor (james.proctor@tiscali.co.uk) immediately - mobile 07801 815784.

Remember the game, which kicks off at 2pm this Sunday, is free for all spectators so if you’re not playing come along and cheers the guys on.

 

Player Auction Closed

Thanks to everyone who put a bid in for the Dream Team. I’ll be in touch over the next 24 hours or so to pass on details.

In the meantime if anyone wants to bid on the Managers Positions then bids are still being accepted.

 

Four Hours Left

A little under four hours left on the players auction.

Home Team: One half game still to receive a bid, plenty of others that you can outbid someone on.

Away Team: Three full games and two half games still to get a starting bid.

I’ll update the site from 8.30pm onwards this evening should there be anyone out there waiting ’til the last minute to bid.

 

Auction Closes Tonight

Just a reminder that the players auction will end at 10pm this evening.

 

Manager for a Day!

With places now filling up for the Dream Team game on Sunday 8th October (2pm k.o. - spectators welcome) we’ve got two special places on offer for the non-playing fan. Yup, we’re auctioning off the two managers spots!

The team manager will take the team talk on the day, set the team out in their preferred formation, make any unscheduled substitutions (due to injury), change formation when the going gets rough/you sneak a one-goal lead and generally shout random instructions and wave your hands around while the players ignore you and pretend to have developed temporary deafness.

You’ll also get a certificate, T-shirt and photograph as a momento of the day.

Bidding starts at £20

There are still a few full and half games available for the fitter supporters out there which we could really do with filling.
