Dear Singapore Gooners,
Destiny!
Destiny will be the word of the month in April… It’s in our hands! That spot for Champions League, it’s up for grabs now! We have 7 matches to get back to Europe’s elite competition and avoid Friday morning games (yawn!). The lads are playing with a bit of swagger and with Ozil and Rambo in sync, maybe, just maybe, we can nick it. Leno’s won our Player of the Month for March so he might marshall our defence to more clean sheets!!
Things may get a bit Spursy for them lot, the devils with Ole at the wheel and the wheels might just come off sooner than expected and the rent boys are just feeling Sarri for themselves. They all know there’s only ONE TEAM IN LONDON!
Membership renewal (Change is coming!)
It’s April again so membership renewal and new sign-ups starts this Sunday. We’ve announced before that we plan to allow online sign-ups but this is taking slightly longer than expected (if we have a government grant, then it would have been faster.. ahem!). It will definitely happen this year but or now, we will continue with walk-in renewals/sign-ups at Five Oriental on match nights.
1. We have maintained the same pricing for renewals and sign-ups for past 12 years . Happy, right? But moving forward, we will do away with Junior Gooners membership. We only have less than 10 kids currently. To reward them for their support this coming season, we will extend a 1-year free membership to these kids. Our new membership structure will have a single price for all ages: sign-ups ($50) and renewals ($30).
2. Effective immediately, we will be mailing out membership cards to our members (local address only). So when you come down to renew, Exco team will request that you check (and check again) to ensure your mailing address in our system is current. Cards will be mailed out 3 weeks after payment is received.
3. We still have limited sizes for Arsenal SG polo t-shirts up for sale ($20 each) on match nights. Once all polos are sold out, we won’t be ordering new stock in future. Also available are drawstring bags, mugs and scarves ($10 each). Exact Cash please.
Onto this Sunday, we play away at Everton. Our away form is nervy to say the least. We gotta buck up and aim for a clean sheet. Come down for the final few games of this season. Grab your dinner with your family and friends before the match.
Doors open at 7pm. Membership renewals will be from 7.30pm – 8.30pm and our treasurers are requesting for exact cash payment if you can.
Everton v The Arsenal, 9.05pm kick-off, Sunday 7 April @ Five Oriental
COYG!!!
Victory Through Harmony,
