I think there was 38 tables.Originally Posted by Terry
Most of the current team were there alrite and a few old faces, Johnny Morris Burke, Jimmy Nolan and a few more oh and the infamous Jumbo Brennan![]()
38 x 1000 = a nice little profit!

but in saying that there was a raffle and auction there also so that brought in another couple of thousand. The auction consisted of a Man Utd. jersey signed by Keano, a Chelsea jersey signed by Duff and 2 U2 tickets

i know they definitely had to pay for it but i have no idea what the Radisson were charging per head.Originally Posted by Terry
But all in all, good nite, good turnout and sold a good few season tickets as well at it
A lot of additional revenue was taken in on the night, along with the revenue from the tables. These fundraisers are the way to go. Organisation from the GUFC point of view was very professional.
However, I was not impressed by the standard of food served. No choice, main course meagre enough. Would not recommend "The Rad" for a wedding.
