2nd efestivals Glasto World Cup discussion thread

[hogga]

I mentioned this in the other thread a few days back, and I realise it's probably too late now, but are we sure we want to use JustGiving? Virgin Money Giving charges less and more of the donation goes to the charity. I know I'm biased as I work for VMG but the facts speak for themselves:

Ok, so I'm not sure what 'almost £12' is, but if it's, say, £11.90 (and I'm being generous there) then for the £270 that has been donated so far, WaterAid get about £320. Through VMG it would be £340. That £20 difference is easily enough to give one more person safe, clean water for life. So if we raise another £3000 this year, that difference could end up being over £200.

VMG still has all the bells and whistles like JG - totaliser pages, donation messages, app for FaceBook to spread the word, widgets for blogs and the like.

So is there any chance we can swap to VMG before we raise much more? I'll still donate either way of course and I'll also be standing on the sidelines cheering but it would be cool if we could help WaterAid just a little bit more.

So teams are now both full but we still need cheerleaders and reservists.

I'm hurt I'm not among the physios

Got a magic sponge ready and everything. My unused costume from last year (bloody traffic) is needing an airing. If you don't want me I won't bring my bone-saw.

(donation on its way )

I've just noticed that whiteash was in the ROW squad twice. So that means Keev you are now in the full ROW squad

I'm sure the same thing will happen when Capello is compiling his squad for the World Cup.

"Emile? Hi, it's Fabio here. Sorry about the late notice, but would you be able to fly out to South Africa for a week or so? I've just noticed I put Wayne's name down twice - I was sort of hoping he'd play centre half as well as upfront, because he'd be a shitload better than that cheating clown John Terry. But FIFA rules stipulate that you can't play the same player twice in the same game at the same time. Nazis. Well - fancy it?"

It was only Chaz's ROW team I was trying to sabotage!

[-pogo-]

Can I be the ROW mascot?

[rachbon]

this is a daft question but what to the cheerleaders actually do? do they come up with proper cheers and routines or just kind of jump around shouting words of encouragement? and do you have to be sober?

[Chazeboy]

yup jump around and shout, there was some chants/routines last year.

Our situation got so bad, i even sent some of the cheerleaders on to play for a bit and bolster our team

[Chazeboy]

[rachbon]

well i'll be there cheering for rexclark in the ROW team anyway, so can i be a cheerleader?

[disasterplan]

Can the ROWers give us an idea of where they're all from? Am I gonna be on a team full of Scots, Welsh and Irish or have we got a decent spread?

[disasterplan]

As long as they don't ask me to spell anything with a J in it, the language barrier shouldn't be too much of an issue.

[Chazeboy]

There were 2 or 3 Irish on the team but it was mostly sweaties.

[Langdale Wolf]

Do you have a mascot costume??

[disasterplan]

...stick a football shirt over the top and you're sorted!
