Benbens moneymaking adventure

hypno06

It may sound extreme, but it might be worth looking into a season ticket - at Norwich, DS season ticket costs just £50, and if they get relegated (which is likely) we get 20% back, so making it very cheap........not only does it bring the cost per match down to a very reasonable price, they get goodies in the post, get to go to reserve matches for free too, birthday and christmas cards etc.........

The only problem with that Hypno is the cost for me to get in with him and also he's away every other weekend at his dads, and this season it worked out it was usually that they were away when he was at home :rolleyes: I will look into it though

hi check the clubs official web site
they always announce deals through out the season,sign up for email alerts as well,,
wouldn't take him to lge two games or championship
look for lge 1 or blue sq prem, if possible better football played,,(my opinion,,lge two not enough good players,,,,championship,,two many old premiership has been players and a lot of teams play hoof ball)
also...
when i ran my team of the 14/16 parents who came every week ..10 of them were the mothers,,,mainly cus when the boys started the dads wernt interested,,,then when we started to climb to the higher lges daddies wonted inn.. mummy's said p*ss off we do the football,,,
im sure your ex would not mind collecting your son on a sunday after football??
or even you do home games he does away????
it may be inconvenient,,,but dad will get to love it even if it means the one day a wk lie in has gone for the next 14 yrs,,especially when he sees the amount of enjoyment it will bring,

unfortunately the ex lives a couple of hours away, well, not unfortunately for me but its unfortunate in terms of him taking ds to football

Could you swap weekends with your ex (permanently)? or are there things already factored in? just an idea...

Ex has ds every other weekend and his footie matched will be every sunday. I think he'll have to miss the ones on his weekends at first, but if he does get into it properly then I will insist that ds sports comes first

Sorry, I thought you were talking the big footie club games - gotcha now!:o That really depends on ex's attitude, my DS's dad always takes him to games/tournaments when it's his weekend although he lives a fair bit away but friend's ex wouldn't take their son to his rugby matches despite them being in the same town.:mad:

Morning all

Bit of a mammoth update from me this morning ...
Yesterday at the hospital the doctor said she thinks ds is probably dyspraxic and possibly adhd they will keep monitoring him but no diagnosis yet :rolleyes: Its nothing I wasn't expecting, but its still not nice

Last night ds did not want to go to sleep and eventually after battling over it for ages he fell asleep at 10pm

I managed to get several matched bets on last night, so will hopefully have some money coming in this week I also did a tesco order to be delivered on monday morning.

I'm just waiting for ex to collect ds then am off to Brighton till tomorrow, am very excited, have a good weekend all
