"Thieves broke though a secure outer wall and stole the safe containing cash and cheques"

When will George Reynolds leave our club alone?

Couldn't have been Reynolds - it was a successful break-in

The "secure outer wall" wasn't very secure then...

Clever timing - 2 games over the weekend. Hope the insurance is up to scratch.

Whilst everybody is mindlessly mocking the break in and making references to GR, let's just think on...that money might have been OURS.

Suddenly, it's as unfunny as fuck.

I was just thinking exactly the same, and you know how insurance company's work, the have a t&c to get out of everything.

Indeed, and we're run by volunteers with little time to spare, it's easy to get the insurance policy slightly wrong etc etc.

Not saying that will have happened but it'd just be our luck.

that's all we bloody need particularly if it's the gate money from our match on the Saturday. I'm assuming Bishop would have banked their gate money from the Friday night game on the Saturday. Knowing our luck it's probably all the gatemoney and shirt money.

Well yeah. Thieves will have been thinking "Darlo playing, thousands of pounds"

All we need, this is. Until we know the facts we can only speculate, but if you were a betting man, you'd bet that it was 99% certain to be OUR money.

In the past our gate money used to be collected by a security company after a home game at the Arena, so hopefully it will have also happened last weekend and of not I'm sure it will have been insured.

Insured or not, it will still have a financial impact on us.

Lets just wait for the facts before we end up in Burgervan gate again.

There must be plenty CCTV round there, the fuel station, Sainsbury, March hare, rind ale crossing etc, even Lloyds tractor place if the headed toward west Auckland.

according to article they managed to steal the safe. I thought that the safe would be quite secure and hidden in a wall somewhere. This thief or thieves seem to have had plenty of time to get in and then locate the safe without any burglar alarms or security devices going off. And they found it in the dark as I'm sure they didn't switch all the lights on.

Wasn't some pitchfork weilding yokel from the West ghetto who is still pissed off that 5000 of us didn't turn up last season to give them there over inflated payday was it...

In all seriousness, quite disturbing that they can get away with the safe so seemingly easy

I have not heard any confirmation how us and Bishop are affected by this but it's safe to say if we put all the cash in the safe, then we would of had somewhere close to 10k in there.

I hope the insurance policy is relevant for break-ins and up to date, I haven't seen any reports on the Echo website either.

Terrible news to hear regardless of whose money is in there.

I thought safes these days were just for petty cash and other operating cost.

Arent the takings dropped off at the night bank or picked up for the bank.
