    Nope.
    Then again, if I'm a member of 'the clique', I would say that, wouldn't I?:D

    You told the wrong person that, crazy mad animal rights women here!!

    Most of my favourites are away games to London.. Used to go on train from Wakey, so got a lot of the mad heads from Golthorpe and that area getting on at Donny. Always made for great fun if Leeds were away on the day and on the same train!!

    Steady.
    We took Laura there when she was back from uni, as there's no Indian takeaways near the campus. Everyone kept coming up to her, asking how the meal was, how she was enjoying her experience at uni. She was bitterly disappointed to find out they couldn't deliver to her Newton Rigg campus!:D

    I have a solution! You could cook her some curries for her to take back and freeze.
    Has she settled in ok, not missing her old Dad too much?

    She's settled in very well, thank you, but obviously misses her Dad. I know that's true because I keep telling her so.:D

    Haven't read it yet, but the 'Get Rammell On" badge is the best thing I have ever owned.

    Out of the 1000 or so copies you have sold, how much of it goes to charity? Just curious as to your expenditures as I may be able to help if they are extremely high

    Really good once again, thoroughly enjoyed reading bits last night and this afternoon. Well worth the money.

    My favourite articles was the George Uttley one. Some really interesting stuff in there. The battlerap was top class as always, as was the mid-term report, Kennedy's contract etc. Thought there was a really interesting comparison when reading the Stockport and Cardiff articles, thought provoking stuff.

    I think in the future there could be a couple more 'daft' articles in to really make us laugh, and a bit less of the serious stuff. Even though it's all really good there's some genuinely funny contributors so it would be good to give them a bit more air time as it were.

    The one thing that hits me about it is that there is a massive amount of text in each article....i.e you need to be sitting down and concentrating to read each one properly. That's fine, but it could maybe do with being broken up with some quick hit things...quotes, pictures, whatever.

    Also think if there were regular features this would help... dunno maybe "loser of the month" or "good month for/ bad month for" . The Kennedy contract thing, or the tash xi (cash xi; gash xi etc) could turn into a regular feature, perhaps?

    Overall I think it's an outstanding effort, and for the fellas who have slaved over it to then be standing on street corners selling it, is brilliant.

    Love the stickers and any t shirt will be bought ten times over ahead of the crap in the club shop.

    Well done to all concerned.

    Every single bit of profit. We sell out we're talking around £1400 to charity.
