The Allstars awards dinner has been re-arranged for Friday 25th February.

The venue is the Red Lion pub in Crown Passage, off Pall Mall , St. James’s, London SW1Y 6PP (click here or see below for map).

For those new to the Club, it’s the evening when we gather for a few beers and some food (about £10 a head) to mark the end of the season, and present awards to the five Allstars Of The Year for their contribution either on- or off-field.

Nominations are still open for the Allstars of the year. Awards can be given for any reason, so please email your suggestions to Maxie.

Please also email Maxie to indicate whether you will be coming and whom else you will be bringing (we need a fairly accurate indication of numbers).

See you there!

To the surprise of no-one, “Mediterranean island” has won the poll to select the destination for the Allstars’ 2011 tour. It was the runaway winner, with 66% of the votes.

Meanwhile, Maxie is organising an Allstars tour to Corfu (a Mediterranean island) in September 2011.

James Hindle said “I am gratified that democracy has carried the day” before going on about Nick Clegg for about 3 hours.

All the staff at the Allstars Blog (some of them still nursing hangovers from the staff party) would like to wish all our readers a very Merry Christmas.  We hope that you all have a restful holiday, so that you will be raring to start winter nets early in the new year.

The offices of the Allstars Blog will be closed over the festive season, and will reopen in January.

Anyone who has opened a newspaper or turned on a radio this morning will have heard that the Allstars’ own James Hindle is to marry at last. After living the playboy lifestyle for many years, James proposed to the lovely Rose and (after completing a thorough due diligence exercise), Rose accepted.

All the staff here at the Allstars Blog send James and Rose their warmest congratulations and best wishes for the future.

The Awards Dinner previously scheduled for the 26th November 2010 has been postponed. We’ll bring you details of the new date as soon as it is fixed.
