Immortals Dinner - Saturday 16th May : Mon Feb 03, 2020 12:34 pm  

Details announced today of the Immortals Dinner at 116 Pall Mall https://www.116pallmall.com on Saturday 16th May; part of the "Fulham40" fortieth anniversary celebrations at https://www.fulham40.org.uk delivered in partnership by the LBSA and the Broncos. This will be one of THE nights of our whole history. Hosted by London Player 301 and now BBC Sports presenter Tulsen Tollett we will be inaugurating 3 or 4 Immortals - players who have had the biggest and most lasting effect on our Club, as well as adding to our Hall of Fame https://www.lbsa.org.uk/heritage/hall-of-fame/, naming an All Time Team and Era teams covering Fulham, the Crusaders, Broncos, Quins RL and the current Broncos, and making presentations to our Hall of Famers and origin Fulham players. The Immortals and other historic awards will be led by Rugby League historian Professor Tony Collins - we can all have great fun choosing our own teams in the meantime. You really don't want to miss this. We've been working hard since before Christmas to get as many Fulham origin players there as we can, as well as members of our Hall of Fame. All this and a three course seated dinner just a stone's throw from Buckingham Palace at just £70. Details and tickets will be available at Sunday's Whitehaven game, or are available right now at the LBSA Store https://www.lbsa.org.uk/store/Immortals-Dinner-Saturday-16th-May-p172439677 Let's do our great players proud! See you there.

Is this a member's only event or open to all?

Just curious how someone gets into the Hall of fame. Is there a selection committee? What are the criteria??....

Thanks

No it's not a members event but I hope those who are not members will see the benefits of membership arising from events like this and our Academy sponsorship if nothing else! The Hall of Fame, like the Roll of Honour featuring all our players in order since 1980, is an LBSA initiative and the process has leant heavily on the expertise of Dave Farrar and Peter Lush - the Immortals and All Time team selection will be led by Professor Tony Collins, with participation from the Club, the LBSA "formally" and the wider supporter base.
