Absolutely fuffing brilliant. I was surprised when we raised enough to sponsor one player, but now we have more than enough for two, my ghast is well and truly flabbered.

And thanks to Mr/Mrs/Miss/Ms A. Nonymous for boosting us past the target.

Money received okay thanks.

The lastest total I now hold is £1235.25. I will wait to see if I hear from Sam Strandt over the weekend with a list of available players to sponsor. If I do not hear from him over the weekend I will contact him to see the best way about getting the money over to him as I don't really want to be sitting on other peoples money for too long. I could even send him the money for the 2 players and then we can choose who at a later date. The following people have donated. If you have and you don't see your name there, let me know as it is possible I might have missed one or two. We can then decide what to do with the excess money we have raised.

Excess money to youth development for me.


The wife was going away for a girly weekend.
I jokingly remarked  'I don't know whether to spend it watching porn or watching football'
'you may as well spend it watching porn' she replied
That's understanding darling what makes you say that? I asked

She said 'Well you already know how to play football'

As long as the club benefit from any excess funds raised I dont mind where it goes. Some suggestions follow (and I like the last one)


Youth Development

The new Girls Development team

Buy a couple of those bricks

Bang it all on the GTFC Lottery. If we lose, they have the money. If we win, they have more money!

Sponsor a youth players kit - £160+vat

Or how about spreading the love? How about paying for a mascot package for a local kid who needs a bit of a break if they have been ill or in the news for something good?

MASCOT PACKAGES

Be a Mariners Mascot for the day, lead out the players and have your photograph taken with the team captains in the centre circle.

Full home or away replica kit

GTFC gift bag

3 Complimentary tickets for family or friends

Photo and feature in Match Programme

Meet the players prior to the game

Lead out the Mighty Mariners

Line up with Mighty Mariner and team captains for official photograph

Commemorative certificate

Cost - £160+vat

How good would THAT be for a little 'un?
