A Story from "over the pond" ...

A story requiring more publicity ... Stalybridge Celtic (or should I say the fans) are at the moment trying to get it together to raise cash for a new Social Club - because basically the present "portakabin" is just not up to it (OK it's an improvement on the old railway carriage but...).  So ... a fund raising scheme (the Hail Ale Fund) has begun (check out this thread).  

However here's the 'real story' - a cut and paste from the same Message Board ...

"The Stalybridge Celtic North America supporters association (I think that's just me). Raised 20 UKP today in Birmingham Alabama for the Hail Ale fund. We hosted a lemonade stand on the street and made a few dollars. Photos available for the Celtic program and donation coming via the website in pounds. Go Celtic. See you at Xmas. Kids had a blast and raised some dosh. Americans totally into it - Olympics and all.

We're visiting Alabama and off back to Orlando tomoz. Let's see how lemonade sells next to Disneyworld I'm guessing not so well.
