Hi all...do hope we are looking forward to next Friday 18th..it promises to be a 'most splendid' night out and I for one cant wait .Its always good to reach 'HOT' status on here indicating demand is growing Therefore due to potential heavy demand........I have updated this event page with local extra car parking provision plus possible overnight accommodation for those who so desire!!! Anyway on a more sombre note I have to report one of the squad is injured. The success of every team revolves around its squad..and here at FTMNTC we are extremely fortunate to have a squad that is flexible and all sharing the same 'music first' ethos..... Geese has had a very nasty head on car accident on Tuesday night whilst on his bike and he is currently in Royal Stoke hospital. Geese is an avid cyclist and we can can be reassured that he had all the correct 'gear' on and the very best of PPE ......however we all know it aint a 'fair fight' when a car is involved !! He's got a bleed on his right lung with a drain in , 8 broken ribs and right collar bone broken !!! So far !! The Royal Stoke is an exemplar hospital and he is in very good hands there So I aim to get him a nice 'get well soon' card from us ALL at FTMNTC and we can sign it on Friday and give him our best wishes for a speedy recovery. Hopefully it'll be a bit of a morale booster...and with Xmas fast approaching its not a good time to have been 'in the wars' Get well soon Geese Sveikatus

Another feast of tunes expected for this November gathering. You may notice our guest DJ's are not the same DJ's who do the 'circuit' week in week out. Whilst those do a sterling job...the DJ's we choose tend to be low profile/high quality selectors. Many don't post on here with their exploits here and there ...preferring a more selective approach HOWEVER don't let this confuse you...these DJ's are chosen for a reason !!!! No not neccessarily to put 'bums on seats' BUT to enhance the musical offering...and they do that with aplomb !!!

WE look forward to welcoming both old and new 'enthusiasts' to our event ...its REAL friendly here ... no masonic type handshakes, no fashion shows. no stories of the Twisted Golden Casino , no awkward cliques . We don't take ourselves too seriously here...it aint a competition...its just a night out , and hopefully during the night...offering you something a little different Do hope you can join us x

Smashed through the 1000 views mark again...this event has certainly sparked some interest again
-
Again because of high demand there are a few suggestions for any that want an overnight stop the lamb Inn lion and swan Hotel the alexandra court hotel. All within a 5/10 min walk from the venue
-
Demand will be high for this one ..guarranteed...so customer info re parking There is a small car park on site and roadside parking outside the venue . If both these options are full...then there are two car parks within a 5 minute walk of the venue West Street, CW12 1JR Antrobus Street, CW12 1HB

For those that haven't been before.....we are only 10/15 mins from M6 North and Southbound Any last minute announcements will be posted up on here....we are as is This venue has hosted many many Allnighters in the past over the years and are fully versed with protocol. In fact I was talking to a respected allnighter 'veteran' the other day and they are really pleased we've managed to secure this venue...stating its just the right size and 'temperament' for a nighter !!!! Out of respect to the venue providers and others can I ask inform that talc is restricted

Right its just a few weeks to go ....best get the game face on !! Firstly I just want to put into context the whole CO72 event/happening This really isn't just ANY 'reunion' event This isn't is a reunion/anniversary type event.. where the money goes into the bulging pockets of the promoters (so don't be confused ) ALL PROFITS GO TO CHARITY Everyone involved in this event is offering their valuable services for free....to maximise the charitable contributions CO72 has been in existence for many years...quietly going about its business of donating to charities and having a 'whale' of a time in the process !! The ORIGINAL and best annual 'era' event raising nearly £35,000 for charity since 2008 Your £10 entrance goes to charity guaranteed !!!! Be safe and secure in the thought...you are making a difference !! we wont have your pants down !!!! -

A few days to go and we at 3 Clubs are getting quite excited ...oooh matron...its been ages since we've put on a 3 Clubs Allnighter...pre Covid days at the Old Courts in Wigan...yeah that long !!!! For our return we're really pleased to have been able to use Stubshaw Cross Club.... As many of you will know.....its has a long and solid history of hosting allnighters and holds fond memories I'm sure for many of the UK's Allnighter crowd This isn't 'virgin' territory for this club ( worth a quick ooh matron ) On that note I must say we're really heartened by the response we've received from the aforementioned Allnighter crowd...with many indicating they're gonna attend. Your support is really appreciated and vital to the ongoing 'scene'. Don't underestimate your own importance.......................its key to what we all do !!!!! Forget DJ's Forget beaming promoters with 10 grand shiny teeth Forget Large Car Parks Forget cheap ale Forget stories of the Twisted Golden Casino Forget boasts of 4ply toilet roll in the toilets Keep it REAL its about you lot with a bit(a lot ) of music slung in !!!!!!!!!!!!! We are the only scheduled Allnighter on which hasn't happened by accident..frantic diary work by promoters and club has taken place........you Allnighter promoters out there know EXACTLY what I mean So its our usual 2 roomed format .. The Stubshaw Main Room hosting Allnighter sounds past and present with a nice little treat...the FTMNTC team doing t'other room...Pop in to see em..South Cheshires best kept secret...up there in Greater Manc

Some handsome DJ's in that lot
