Hi guys. Was really thinking about our group sponsoring the carabao cup game v Cheltenham. I've been in touch with the good people at the club who organise these things and this is the offer....
'I can confirm we are not looking at opening the Poplar Suite restaurant but can offer you the following in the Exec Boxes on the evening of the game;
A private suite with TV Pre-match two course hot fork buffet meal Complimentary tea and coffee Matchday programme for each guest Cash bar in the Denis Dunford Lounge Hostess service Minimum 10 and maximum 15 people per box
We could offer you the double box (17/18) which will hold a maximum of 30 guests or 20 guests seated. If your numbers were higher than this we could offer you the adjoining boxes which all hold either 10 (seated) or 15 guests (standing)
The price for the evening will be £37.50 + VAT per person or £40 + VAT if you would like to be the Match Sponsors'
So basically for this to happen with the sponsorship (which is £3 extra per person) including VAT works out at £48 which isn't to bad considering league games are roughly double the price, almost always unavailable these days, plus ST holders don't take a hit.
Obviously I don't need to tell you guys that the objective is to meet up with some quality people and have a really great evening and have a good laugh together watching the gas....
This isn't booked yet, but from what I can gather we can go from as little as 10 to as many as 30 but I really need to gauge interest before confirming a booking as it's boxes instead of tables and arranging these things can be tricky....
So, please show interest here....
Oh, and this year we are going to try to do our best to arrange more stuff during the season, don't know what, don't know when but we will get some events organised.....

Sounds like a decent plan, count me in. Be good to meet up with a few old (and new) faces again.
I seem to recall the double box is a long way from the bar though, just sayin.......

Well you'll have to send me to the bar then (you definitely only gave me a tenner).... Good to have a response. With you, myself and Clare that's 3, so 10% of the 30 for the double box.... Come on guys we can do this.... Edit 13.5% of people now.... Where's that Welsh bloke called dave?

I’m in mate. Look forward to seeing you all again and hopefully a few new Gasheads.
Anyone who hasn’t been to one of these before it’s really relaxed and a good laugh. You get to meet some great people and it’s always fun to at last put some faces to the names on here.
Go on treat yourself.

Brilliant idea and good for ST holders as well.
Personally can't afford it but hope enough can to make it viable 👍👍

Count me in, it will be great to finally meet you guys. My mate Jonny will probably come (the Cardiff fan) he loves the Gas, he now goes to more Rovers games than Cardiff lol! So definitely 1 possibly 2, I’ll confirm later in the week.

Well this has cheered me up a bit. I was feeling a little bit doom and gloom about it yesterday but 2 more attendees has changed the dynamic for sure....
We have 7 defo and 5 maybe, so 7 -12 and a box is min 10 max 15 so only a small step from me being able to secure a booking of a box. I can add extra numbers should it be required....
I actually think the box is a bit more social than the table arrangement in the east, so fingers crossed we can do this

Just returned from holiday, posted a few times on the forum via my mobile and did see this a couple of days ago. My apologies for being so remiss Paul especially since you mentioned me earlier in the thread. Put me down for this, someone's got to chauffeur GHB to and from the Mem. He's now an OAP so needs more care and attention these days!
