Are you blokes aware we voted for Perth to hold the next AGM in 2012 ?

A few of us are aware, I don't think it's made its way out to the majority of the members yet.
Perth Gooners.. I'm calling on you!! We need your help to step forward and assist with the organising and recruiting of members for next years AGM. If you have any ideas please email me at treasurer@arsenalaustralia.com.au
Nigel (Perth Rep) has worked hard for you lot in the past, how about we give him a hand yeah?

If i spoke to Sagey to make this happen would it help boys??

you've got a tough act to follow ,people mainly want plenty of notice of what weekend to book flights

wow thats awesome news for perth gooners, hope you guys manage to get a new HQ, shame as the shag was,is a excellent pub, unfortunately, as you will be all aware i returned back to the uk in february after 5 and a half years in sunny,hot perth, might see if i can make it out to the agm next year cant promise, i could go see my favourite tattoo artist as well then , finding it hard to follow the footie now, as it is so engrossed with money and players earn to much it is crazy and as for arsenal raising there tickets by 6.5% its disgusting , have been ofered tickets to the emirates cup, but not sure whether i will ever watch arsenal live again, many true fans simply cannot afford to go any more, i got soft spot for norwhich now they gone up as my aunt lives in norfolk hope you are all doing great and im fine great to have copious amounts of marmite and proper sausages but theaps i miss about perth

And something fun to do or see a few fantastic dinners, sunny weather but not too hot, a fun kick about in a beautiful park, but mainly we want a great time at a pub watching Arsenal WIN a great game of football I'm not asking for much, am I lol

Arsenal win ? at the agm ? thats not part of it is it ?
gees that would be huge if u made it for the agm Davey

i cant promise but i will certainly try my hardest

Great to see some feedback from Interstate members too!! You guys enjoying our city is just as important as the smooth running of the weekend. After speaking with Graham (the prez) last week, it seems that we may be favouring the first or second week of May. Nigel (Perth Rep) is heavily involved with the Military here in Perth and April is a very busy month for him with Anzac Day preparations.

With any luck it will fall on the weekend I need to be in Perth for a wedding, spend a couple of hours at the wedding then the rest with you guys hehehe I'm sure my family will understand

Whens the wedding mate? We'll move the weekend around for you haha

yep its on the 5th of May crossing my fingers lol i'm sure you guys can move it for me lol
hope its the same weekend then i get to see my cuz get married but if not welll ummm lol i dont think i will make the wedding

it would have to be that weekend i m guessing ,it would be the last round ,as the FAcup is normally on the second weekend of may ,this is season was only deep into may cause of world cup and champions league final in london

Can't see it being in May due to the teams we play then, maybe Apirl 22nd against Chelsea, take a few days off and enjoy the week.
So do we know if anyone is organising this at all?? ??

So no word on anyone organising this

good point Deb ,needs to get a move on with date selection otherwise buying a plane ticket is gonna be too expensive

If we don't have a date by the end of the year I will not be going, don't want to hope I can get cheap flights a month before when I can go and get cheap flights now, will spend the money on a new lounge instead

Im in perth - what would we need to do to get this one moving?

I can start looking at venue hire etc

how swish are these events usually??

have a look at the melbourne itinerary for a guide ,but basically its a pub/club we can eat and drink at and watch a game .(day and time of game can change after thats just the nature of the beast) .A central park we can have a BBQ and kick about .But a weekend date needs to be decided asap otherwise booking cheap flights will be hard ,have heard early may is being considered.
Start a thread on facebook maybe for quicker feedback
hope that helps gigi

Gigi85 can you please get in contact with me @ treasurer@arsenalaustralia.com.au

What's happening?

Sorry all, really struggling with time here...looking to have it on 21st April (Chelsea weekend) If there are any Perth members that could lend a hand please let me know. I can be contacted on Treasurer@arsenalaustralia.com.au Could the members that I spoke to at the Perth Glory games over the christmas break please also get in contact with me..Thanks

if time is an issue it can always be later in the year ,as long as we have it in 2012 it doesn't matter .Its the time everyone needs to book flights in finding cheap flights and organising time off as 90% off us would be coming from the east .Personaly the 21st of april counts me out as we would have just had a baby and had a month off and im rostered on at work that weekend.

Chops,

Having it after the re-start of the season would be a lot easier. I'll run it by Graham and see what he thinks..

Can't make it as well unless you do have it later in the year, also best to put it on our Facebook page as well cos not many come on here as much anymore

Thanks, will start using the FB page..
