And counting. All the OP asked was what time the bar opens!

If we didn't get on the list do we get a free pie?

I don't know of any "ordinary" NSC members who were invited. That's one of the reasons why I have resigned my membership.

Very sad to hear that SWE.

I have no idea who has and hasn't been invited from the NSC, I was just trying to say that with an allocation of, say, 10, then not every member (ordinary or otherwise) could attend.

In summary:

Trust: all members automatically entered into a draw made by Richard using a random number generator, resulting an a fair process across the membership.

NSC: only members seeing and responding to an obscure visitor post on a rarely-used and unpublicised Facebook page entered into a draw, resulting in a tiny number of people being in the draw and massively increasing the odds of the NSC inner circle "in the know" being selected.

Indeed and no comments were left so that suggests no one from the NSC is going

Why didnt the main account post it instead of a visitor post

But that is your opinion which isn't necessarily anyone else's. You didn't want to go so why are you so against those that do? If I wasn't interested I wouldn't be bothered what anyone else was doing and certainly not insulting the event.
If it causes all this division and ill feeling perhaps we are better off left at the bottom of the footballing heap and ignored in future.

Yes it's my opinion Elaine you seem quite happy to ram your opinion down everyone elses throat

It's not causing me ill feeling and I'm just saying I don't know why all the fuss about a one hour event hours before the game

Anyway I'll leave it for now as I do have more pressing things happening - enjoy

My comments are positive though. not using words like calling people a*******s.

Many of those working in the media are - this is a forum so I'm entitled to my view if you don't like it don't read it -

Has Andy McKinnon included himself in the group selected to go?

Doesnt mean they are right Elaine. We can all use positive wording but in the real world things need to be said and done.

Again, not the point I was making. Never mind.

Jesus wept, when I read the original [explanation] post I thought 'ah, no issues there then, all very clear and a fairly difficult decision well dealt with' but no the moaners will always have something to say.

There are ways to deal with disappointment at not getting selected or drawn to have a seat in the audience of a TV show that will be ending around 2 hours before kick off to allow plenty of time to have a social drink(s) in the club bar, I feel that some have not dealt with that disappointment very well.

Since when on here has a valid point been an acceptable point!

If you are not on the list and get a free pie I will remove myself from the list immediately
