Quoted from Southwark Mariner


The Teenager’s Offering

Paul sat down opposite his computer (that he knoweth well how to operate) and watched the crowdfunding in progress. Many rich people threw in large amounts. But a poor teenager came and put in £5.

Calling his assistant manager to him, Paul said, “Chris, truly I tell you, this poor teenager has put more into the transfer fund than all the others. They all gave out of their wealth; but he, out of his poverty, put in everything.”

By the time i had finished reading that, there was a tear rolling down my cheek.UTM.

OUR clubs fans never cease to amaze me. Biased or not we have the greatest set of supporters in the land bar none!!! £21,000 in ONE day is simply outstanding. Unfortunately I haven't been able to donate yet due to personal circumstances but I will as soon as it is feasible to do so. It might only be a few ££'s but I want to do my part.

A gigantic well done and THANK YOU to everyone who has chipped in so far, little or large.... EVERY penny counts.

I've never been prouder to be a TOWN fan. I may even cry a little!!

Back to #operationpromotion, it's worth pointing out that at least 10 of the items on offer have completely sold out. All the mugs, t-shirts, tours with Lloyd Griffith, the Wayne Burnett posters, the place in the squad to name a few. Looking forward to see what else will be made available as I'm sure there will be plenty of people who've already pledged that will get involved again. Simply brilliant.

Absolutely fantastic and it must have blown everyone's first day expectations out of the water.

IF you have been able to donate that is great. How about now trying  to persuade one additional person to do the same?

Cliche I know but this proves once again that it is virtually impossible for the vast majority of us to make a difference but collectively we certainly can!!!!

Over £23k now. In one flipping day!

UTM!


Through the door there came familiar laughter,
I saw your face and heard you call my name.
Oh my friend we're older but no wiser,
For in our hearts the dreams are still the same.

When the £100 pledge page was first launched I did think that we'd surprise. I wouldn't be surprised to see us hit £50k on the crowdfunder site before the end of this month - let alone next. The Mullens might regret their decision to match us for a while but this warchest is going to serve us well.

Yep we need more items to buy.  After already donating, the misses will chew me right out if I don't have something to show for the next time I pledge haha. So far I've done 30 for the transfer budget.. She didn't understand, then after reading some of the donations and it being payday I put in another 20, which I informed her I'd become a member of the trust lol... Need something to show next time or she might twig on.  Amazing effort today!!
