Club Membership…. “Hey You!!!” |
|
This is no shameless grab for cash, this is your ticket to fame, fortune and popularity! But don’t just take my word for it, check out our impressive list of testimonials: “I was never a popular kid in school. I was always getting picked on and teased because of my name. They’d call me ‘Scrot’, ‘Ballbag’, ‘Nutsack’ and ‘One-Nut’. It was awful. Then I paid my North London Lions membership and that all changed. People like Trav Fernee, Plugger and G Mac actually talk to me at the pub, and next week they reckon they’ll introduce me to Jimmy Boot. It’s amazing. I haven’t been this popular since ‘Bring your Little Brother to Training’ night at the Elsternwick Minijews Under 13’s!!!” - Matthew Ball, aged 26.
“When I was born, doctors diagnosed me with Carrotosis, otherwise known as Fanta Pants Curse. I didn’t have any friends when I was younger as all the other kids were scared they’d catch my red pubed hell. Then I joined the North London Lions, and things didn’t improve. But then I paid my membership, and it’s as if a curse was lifted. I met Robbo, and he taught me how to bleach my hair. Then I went on the footy trip to Ibiza, and I held hands with Damo and watched the sunset. I’ve never been so happy!” - James Boot, aged 29. (Not too sure who this guy is…)
“When I was younger, I was a scrawny, shy, retiring private school boy from Rupertswood College in Sunbury. Then I came to London and hooked up with the Lions. I exchanged forty quid for a whole new world of excitement. Karl introduced me to protein shakes, and made me ‘Feel the Steel’. Now I’ve got the biggest chest in Britain and legs as thick as Dicko’s head. I even got to move in with club legends Chissy and Timmy Ellis. I’ve never been so in love. Thanks North London Lions!” - Darren Good-Giles, aged 47.
If you want all of these wonderful things to happen to you, then cough up the cash and get amongst it!! To pay up, you can either bring the stan-cash to training or get hold of the details and wire it through to the club account. To get the details, see any of the club leadership group, including Robba, Chrissy Rae, Chissy, Bobcat or Rocket.

All 3 Grades Bundled Out of the FINALS! |
|
Ok so you know how I said that we like the do or die situation down at North London, well… that whole ethos didn’t quite work out for us on the weekend. It was a very unfortunate weekend for all three grades on the field, with losses to the 3rds on Saturday, then the Ones and Twos on Sunday. It was a disappointing end to a promising 2008 season, but that’s the way it goes sometimes in footy. Don’t despair though, we’re a young side and have plenty of promise for the coming years. Alright, we’re not that young. But we’ll keep on going at it! So anyway, the 2008 season is finished on the field, but there’s still plenty of frivolities happening off it. The next 2 upcoming functions are the footy trip (from Sept 05) and the presentation night (Fri 27 Sept). When other stuff crops up we’ll put it up on the site, so keep checking every now and again, especially look at the tours and events page. Carn the Lions! Your friendly neighborhood Bobcat.
