OK, people. Forum footy survives on demonland. Our new organiser is ucanchoose. Dunno why anybody would take on this job, but credit to him. I will be his assistant for this upcoming game. And, subject to his approval, my creative goal-umpiring will continue into the future. What do people think about the proposed date of Sunday, October 5 ?? Regards to all, Rollo

Dear Scotty, Any place, any time. Bring it on and we will hand you your butts yet again. Cannot understand why you guys keep coming back. None of the other forums have dared to challenge us in the last 5 years or so. I do have a demonlander who has agreed to take over. I have been too busy at work to hand over to him. I will suggest to him that I assist him this time and then he can take over with me to consult if he needs that. (if I was him, I would consign the old man to goal umpiring to get him out of my space). See you on game day. Regards, Rollo

said it before and say it again... I am no Joe Gutnik... but if we need money, you know where I live...

we are very close to an appointment... watch this space...

thanks, daz... but the 3 candidates to take over are all better people than me... they don't approve of my list management and disown my creative goal umpiring...

decision looks like being as early as this weekend... thanks to the guys who have put up their hands...

Should be able to make an announcement in the next week or so...

One of our current players has offerred to hang up the boots and take on the role... but I want to personally approach a couple of past players before he is forced to do this... anyway, one way or the other, demonland forum footy will live on...

sorry, people... this thread is not going away... until we have a new organiser... or I am banned from the site, whichever occurs earlier...

JOB DESCRIPTION – FORUM FOOTY ORGANISER When challenged to a game, the organiser posts a thread on site to check the suitability of the proposed date, and then confirms the date with the other side. The organiser then - posts the details on site - sends the details to the past players, coaches, helpers and umpires by text, email and pm. The organiser updates the thread as acceptances and apologies come in. A few days before the game, the organiser sends out reminders to the players, helpers and umpires by text, email and pm. On game day, the organiser arrives early, allocates jobs to the helpers, updates the contact details, especially for new players, pays the umpires and hands over the best-player medallion. The organiser leaves late, making sure the venue is not despoiled by rubbish left by people attending. On game day, or soon after, the organiser posts the official match report – final scores, goalkickers and best player. Each game is an investment of 12 hours for the organiser – approximately 6 hours pre-game and another 6 hours on game day.

hey, wise... it has been a tough week at work... but I have dictated a job description and shuold be able to post it tuesday...

OK, wise, I will work on posting a position description...

Nobody hand-balled to the opposition all day...

great pics, rollo2... make sure you thank your friend for us...

STILL NO EXPRESSIONS OF INTEREST !! I assume we are all happy for demonland forum footy to die ?? Without an organiser, we are back to 2007... 11 guys turned up and we lost (only loss ever) to saintsational... hawkheadquarters, saintsational, talkingcarlton, nick's pies site all dropped out of forum footy because they had no organiser... will demonland join the list of has-beens ??

hey, rollo2... where are the promised pics ??

Now that name is in the archives... No interest yet in the organiser job...

thanks, mate... your site name is not in our records... what was your site name when you played ?? (want to make sure the records are as up to date as possible before passing them on to the new organiser)...

hey, wise (aka etc)... Forgot to thank you for making my job (and every coach's job) so much easier... your on-field leadership has always been exceptional... when (if) you have time, use the search engine on here and enter "forum footy"... if there are gaps, I may be able to supply the info from my records... Since our first game in 2006, the records show we have played about 15 games, with a 14-1 win/loss record... I intend to come and watch and help out each and every time... but history tells us (hawkheadquarters, saintsaitional, talkingcarlton) that without a dedicated organiser, forum footy will die on demonland...

sorry, it's an unpaid gig... the job is the reward... if this is not just a flippant post, mate, let me know and I will give you a position description...
