THE ANNAN RFC COMMITTEE EXCUSES PAGE

Players calling off from training - now that is a sin - but what about the backroom boys - the men and women behind the scenes - the ones the players like to moan about:

THE COMMITTEE

Here we can see some of the said Committee. Ands its finally a chance to re-use some graphics that I've had for years.

Now we all dislike meetings - but when it comes to Committee meetings there can be no excuse. Decisions are made here that can change the course of a club and decide how much money must be spent on the tape Cash needs to keep him going...

Excuses - well there is no excuse. Every Annan man on the Committee should attend. To help with the attendance - AnnanRFC.com is proud to present the first new page since October 1997 - The Committee Excuses Page. Here, for all eternity, the men (and women) that feel they have to miss a meeting will have their reason put up on these pages.

Please take a deep breath and drink, steady yourself and prepare for some of the most heart-wrenching excuses every to be uttered.
