Thats a good idea Shippy.
I would say that the only problem of having one player's photograph on a page for each month is that by the middle months within the calendar the football season has finished, and some players have left the club by the time "their month" comes round on the calendar.
Personally, I prefer not to see departed players on calendars, as they seem irrelevant once they have gone.
Not sure how far your back-catalogue of photographs goes, but how about producing a calendar containing action shots of Boston United legends from yesteryear. If they are all retired, rather than simply plying their trade elsewhere, I would buy one. A calendar featuring Cookie, Tex, Cav, McKenna, Adamson, Poplar, Ellendar and the like at the height of their powers would be good. I appreciate if they are before your time then you will not have the copyright on the photo's though.
Just a thought.
I must admit I do like that idea - I'm sure I could sort something out with the club on this one (although copyright could be the issue) - we shall see. I want to do this, but would need a slight hand in some respects - but then again I do want it to be a community effort.
The other idea I was thinking of was just to have some of the celebrations/high points from over the past couple of season - from the promotion to the Blue Square North, play offs last season and general high points. Would be nice just to remind people how the far the club has come over the past couple of years. Also, it makes the players leaving issue a bit less of an issue
Cheers Shoddys, it's nice to know somebody thinks of us!
Well if you would like to lend a hand - and have some good ideas for a front cover and decent calander layouts. then I'm sure we can talk business once again! (if the business cards you did for me are anything to go by then we shouldn't have a problem - FOR ALL YOUR BUSINESS CARDS, GO TO CHRIS COOK PRINT!)
As for charities - I was thinking something along the lines of Macmillan Cancer - as it is a cause that is close to my heart, due to the fact my Grandma passed away from Cancer earlier this year and they were there to look after her. I also know that it is close to the hearts of a couple of people at the club at the moment. Ok there wont be masses of money made, but every little helps!.
Keep those ideas coming, I am working on a few things for it as I write this
