anything for the 13,14 and 15 yr old members?


Sadly not at present, the FA rules round mascots and pitch activities have meant that this group of young fans have missed out this time. We are working hard to come up with something for this age group for after Wembley...any suggestions welcomed.

I've put my name down for both the penalties and the Bobby Moore Suite nosh - I'm sure I could tuck one or the other away!

On the subject of the age limits, it is a bit of a shame that those falling between "children up to 12" and those "over 16s" might miss out on the extras

My son is 14 and while there are no guarantees he'd get the opportunity to be drawn out, he and many other kids who follow Town avidly all through the season are sadly being excluded (as things stand) from getting involved further in our big day out

If I am lucky enough to win the draw to take part in the penalty shoot out maybe he can pretend to be an overweight middle aged bloke reliving his childhood...

I agree with the issues about the 13-15 age group but there was nothing the Trust could do.

The FA gave us strict guidlines as to the qualifying ages, it was out of our hands, sorry

I fully understand Chris.. these things sometimes happen

Explaining it to someone who would desperately love to be in with a shout but being excluded because of his age is tough...welcome to the real world where not everything is fair no matter how much you sugar coat it. Sad but true

All in all though I maintain this is a fantastic initiative for which the trust deserve massive respect for helping some lucky Town fans to have memories of the occasion that they can only dream of.

Well done to all involved! The trust take some criticism from some quarters but let's give them credit where due!

I've put my name down for the penalties but not the other as i want to be in with the crowd

Will the winners be posted on here for those who can't get to the game when it's drawn?
