Lads Off To Dubai


If any of of our matches result is performances like last weekend, then warn them that the schedule will change and they'll be training at Seaton Carew and staying at the Marine Hotel on austere rations
 
Dubai is where the first biscuit was invented :neutral:
TM has already said they are all going on a team bonding day out at the local garibaldi factory on day 3
Haha fair one mate. Felt the structure of the post gave it some integrity and you know how some of that generation of football blokes think. Guessing I’ve been whooshed
Just say you were double whoosing him back....I'll back ya :lol:

I'm genuinely intrigued now as no way we would spend 1 million on a warm weather trip. I just googled an got flights and hotel for about 2 or 3 week stay flying British airways and staying at 5 star palm spring hotel for 9 people (That's the most i could put in) and it totalled about 17K so add on the extra people and it's still less than 100K and that was for about 3 weeks stay as couldn't find than offer for a week.

I don't doubt you could easily spend that amount if you had it, but we won't be paying owt like that. Ha' Way someone way more clever than me must be able to check other similar breaks on the clubs account or some other club and see a total sum? :lol:

I'm guessing 150K-200K tops

On a side note I can see the headline now 'Stewart comeback stalled by sunstroke' :lol:
200k tops :lol:
 
Training facilities and such will be comp’d or subsidized for PR

Assuming 2 weeks for 40 people:

Business class flight 3k = 120k
Accommodation 100-150 night, they’ll probably share rooms = 42k
Per diem 100 quid = 56k
Transport etc 1000 quid a day = 14k

Closer to 250k than a million for 2 weeks

They’ll probably booze the same amount but that’ll be from their own pockets.

Anyone know where they’re staying / playing?
Luggage, all the kit, doesnt gan for free.
Laundry
Food
Buses
Drivers
Logistic people
Training facility costs.
Medical insurance possibly
 
200k tops :lol:
😂 I'm telling ya man 😂 tbf it's made for good reading trying to work out how much now. I think we've opened a acn of worms now as dubai are expecting an infiltration of visitors as everyone flocks to websites to check prices .

We've nearly shut down the Dubai travel economy as they are expecting so many groups of between 40 and 50 peole from all across the North East all in the same week 🤔😂
