Loyalty day at training ground

[swanleyhoop]

Anyone else going to this?
Josie and I are going, but I'm more nervous about this than I was about meeting the Millwall fans last Tuesday!!
Trouble is, Josie has Asperger's Syndrome and says some things which are true but often inappropriate -- and people often end up thinking she's an idiot (which she's not).
No amount of talking to her about it makes much difference.
I'd just hate NW and the players to think she's weird/an idiot too.

But Josie can't wait to go, and it would just be easier if I knew there was going to be some familiar faces there (other than the players!).

I got initial invite at the end of the season but nothing since!!!!

I have never received any form of invite to this and I certainly got enough points last season!

Swanley, perhaps let the club know in advance that you'd like to bring Josie. Normally they're excellent when it comes to R's kids with special needs and players etc would be forewarned. They often even go out of their way to pay them special attention.

Best of luck.

i got me free membership box voucher today. i think it was for being one of first 1000 season ticket renewals.

how many points did you need to get the training day invite?

[Macca69]

I got an e-mail 2 weeks ago about the loyalty day. It is on 26th October and you had to reply by yesterday if going.

Also got the voucher for the membership boxes this morning for being in the first 1000 STs. They really need to sort their admin out.

Swanley - my brother in law has exactly the same afflictions.

Just let the Club know beforehand. Not sure who the Player Liaison Officer is but just inform him/her before and they'll be fine.

Thanks for all your replies -- I've already confirmed that we are going, but will email the man in charge again to let him know about Josie.
Hopefully we will both have a great day out.

Will you be using your press pass?

Tuesday 26th.
Will be good to see one familiar face.
Although there will probably be a lot more -- haven't asked round to see who else is going tbh.
Just a bit nervous about the whole thing but don't want to deprive Josie of the opportunity.
