Quoted from WOZOFGRIMSBY
may not be the most original of ideas, but, ive seen things done before where people buy a brick and have their names emblazened within it.
could something similar not be done?

have put a couple of links as dont think ive explained as best i could :

http://www.gloucesterrugby.co.uk/legends/walkoflegends.php

http://bricks.celticfc.net/

http://www.better-fundraising-ideas.com/brick-fundraising.html


isnt that going away from the initial idea for the tribute to the 2 lads?

Quoted from Grantham_Mariner
Have we got an artist out there who could paint a mural on it.

Or, and sign writing company who would do a 'Photo Job' on it for free for a bit of free advertising.

Any other ideas....

I will donate a small amount towards it if someone lets me know how to do so.

P.S. live too far away to do painting, sorry.


Anyone know the name of the kid who did the artwork outside the matrix club? I can't for the life of me remember his name but he's bloody brilliant. Something like that, maybe a scene of supporters would look really good.

Wrabz is a bit of an artist! I'm bloody awful at DIY but if needed as a last resort would be available, I mean Last Resort!


I'm in Grimsby Tomorrow and Friday if you would like me to do it?

Think the lad who did it a few years ago was called Cal. Although it's bad enough his 'art' is / was outside there, let alone on the gates. Get someone to paint a nice trawler or something on the gate (not Wrabz, sorry, but your paintings are awful)

Art is subjective Wrabs.  I detest Hockney yet love Lowrys paintings?
