You said earlier that you wanted the record to chart.

From my research it looks like it`s pretty much tied up by Cowellalike bigwigs to make it difficult for tinpot hooligans like our selves. You can search the internet for a lifetime and not find a clue as to how its sorted out. After about 6 hours it was doin my flippin head in and I thought Fek it. As long as we get our own sound out and raise a few quid let em listen to the same old ****e week in week out.
That said if anyone knows what it takes feel free to sort it out.
I will be sending promos to all the local radio stations and as many nationals as I think will tolerate us, then maybe people will take notice. As long as I get back the 1500 quid it`s cost me to make it everything else is a bonus, the main thing is that as many people as poss part with the 3 quid and all their friends and relations from far away and people dont start uploading the tracks for free download and **** like that cos thats gonna take money from the club (and me).
I`m still on the case anyway so if we can get as many people scoring one on the saturday we might get a chance but nowadays they count download singles towards the charts and thats pushed the envelope of how few you used to need to get in there. They change their week on saturdays as well so it would be one day and thats its. We all know how many people come to matches so we would never go platinum or anything although like I said its soooo cool the away fans will be buying them as well. If they buy enough we`ll put a roof on that end as well.
Anyway if we do sell up and have to get some more we`ll know how many we`ve turned out. We`ve been playing it at gigs from Kendal to Derby and no-one`s had a bad word to say about it so maybe it`ll exceed all expectations or maybe it`ll fall on its arse. But after the response on here, the support from the club and being thrown onto page 3 by the Observer (If I`d known we`d make page 3 I would have took me top off) I think not.
There`s bound to be an anti clan, I`ve been in the music game for 30 years and I know for every 1 that Loves you there`s 2 that hate you. If I hear the word "Cringeworthy" again I`m going to subject you to my Brown Noise experiment (Music to make you spew and S**T yourself simultaneously) How can anyone in the world say that such a gorgeous bunch of young ladies like the Stanley`s Angels are "Cringeworthy" get a f in Grip and take a masculinity check asswipe ! It`s a word that`s definitely gotta go as is worrying about what other clubs fans think, they`re obviously dicks anyway and we know better.
How did I get onto this rant when I started talking about charting the record (maybe the same way the "Stanley online store" post turned into slating the ladies by entry no 2) I`ll take over as merchandising boss if you want to buy some stuff, and I`ll reduce the prices by 50%.
I don`t think I should make posts when I`m drunk, that said the spellings not that bad.
Blah Blah that`s enough I`m off to answer the next question.
