Fleece Spring music fest/fundraiser.













This Saturday's spring music fest looks all set to be a belter with no less than 7 acts set to play (it was going to be no less than 8 but Keith Burton and his beef curtain have pulled out (sounds painful).

Old hands Tony and Genna (previously of The Flying Seamen) kick off proceedings about 2pm.
Followed by Metro at 3
No Av on the Tv at 4
Your New Antique at 5 (before going on to compete as semifinalists at The Snooty Fox/Wakefield Battle of the Bands)
Stu Campbell provides a solo effort at 6
Dirty Robbers at 7
and last but not least The Labels headline at 8 (all times approximate)

Quite a lot of people have gone to a lot of effort to put this show on the road - mostly at their own expense, time and effort. Whilst a great many thanks are due to the performers, technical crew and suppliers, particular thanks are due to Ken, Nanette and family - hosts of The Fleece and patrons of the Fleece football teams.

For them (and the artists) it is hoped that this is part of something bigger (ideas are already forming for next year - let's get this one going first, eh?)

Once again, many thanks.

This also ought to make a new beginning for the Fleece FC. Apart from raising funds we should view this as the gelling of the team's spirit.
There are many talented individuals, gutsy players, hardworkers, improvers and the odd huff 'n' puff merchant bringing up the rear - all together quite a squad but we need to do more than just turn up for training and matches. We need to rethink elements of our game, our attachment to the club and role within it - no-one gets a free ride.
Perhaps a bit more application off the pitch - analysing the game, a consideration of team layout, player's strengths and weaknesses and our own areas for improvement as well as club stucture and practicalities.

Of course we don't want to get bogged down with technicalities - it is after all a beautiful game (sometimes).
