'Nailers Notebook'

Supporters’ Evening

Supporters of Belper Town Football club were invited to an evening of varied entertainment to round off a successful season on the field, which saw the Nailers win the Derbyshire Senior Cup for the first time in 28 years.

 

As well as a complimentary drink and a delicious buffet, supporters were entertained by Tim Harrison and Tom Carter’s humorous sideways view in pictures covering the last two seasons.

 

A question and answer session with joint managers Andy Carney and Danny Hudson also proved to be very popular, as was Neil Laughlin’s Belper Town Quiz based on the Nailers’ 11 years as a UniBond club. 

 

The prize of a signed match ball was won by Joe Winson.

 

The evening concluded with the drawing of the raffle with the three main prizes being won by Joe Winson (signed season ticket), Jon Hobson (club coat) and June Robinson (club merchandise).

 

A successful evening was rounded off with a presentation of a cheque valued £1,500 to club financial director Rex Barker with Tom Carter, Alan Rodgers, Ian Robinson and Hugh Robinson also receiving thank you gifts.

 

Committee chairman Nigel Oldrini said: “I was very pleased with the turnout and the event was well supported by the club’s directors and committee”.

 

“The Operations Committee was formed at the start of last season not only to ensure that the match day organisation ran smoothly, but to try and form a link between supporters and the Club’s Board of Directors.

 

“Hopefully we have gone some way in achieving our objective, and this event was a culmination of those efforts.

 

“I would like to thank everyone who had an input to the evening and I hope that this will become an annual event.”
