The club are a wee bit busy just now, so it's probably been passed to the association to run,
Although maybe a web announcement on the official would happen
and has the most European appearances as a Motherwell player by my reckoning
he maybe has dips in form, but as alluded to earlier he will go down in the history of the club as a player that contributed hell of a lot to one of the most successful eras of the club to date
much rather he was here than not
Thanks Mr H its arrived already
thats the £700 all pledged folks
Thank you to you all from myself I'm delighted that the strip money has been raised but even more delighted that folk are switched on to so many ways of contributing into the club
Steelmenonline is also fundraising for a joint membership of the 'Well society,
I think Andy P has a fair chuck of the money collected in already, but it would be nice to get the last hundred or so and even make some headway towards the ongoing costs of membership
have a look at the fundraising thread by clicking here if you are interested
and once again CHEERS
another tenner pledged so when Cambo97 sends it, that brings the running total to £680
another £20 and thats us reached an outstanding £700
I'm tempted just to stick it in myself but will leave it to see if anyone new wants to contribute even a fiver
frankfurt with Lufthansa
Brussels with brussels airways
I'm messing about with a few as Im considering taking a game in on the Tuesday night if it pans put

against Dundee United 12/01/2002 2-0 Faddy and Hammell at Fir park
jog any memories?
pay attention at the back of the class
Aye , its the basis of the fundraising, £5 increments, to allow as many as possible to contribute and have one or more chances to win with each £5 contributed
done the charters a few times and also done planes trains and automobiles on other occasions
Charter offers a relatively seamless experience and although this ones not been finalised yet in the past they have included match ticket, transfers to Glasgow airport, flight direct to city of the game, transfer to city centre (Hotel which is sometimes included) transfer from city centre to match venue, transfer back to airport, flight home and possibly transfer back to the Ark,
and as a bonus sometimes you will get the quite unique experience of traveling with the players and officials of MFC, now its not something that is paid for and some etiquette needs to be applied , but I've seen some priceless moments on some of them
this time just looking at some of the flight times going out makes the charter look appealing, but I've not decided yet
and at the end of the day if you can fly heathrow to Athens around midnight for £250 then its a fair whack cheaper
just mind the costs involved in getting to London incl transport parking food drink on the longer journey etc and then getting into your hotel and the hotel itself and the equivalent on the way back not including time being a factor to some
what you do get going that route however is freedom and no doubt a hell of an experience especially if you end up with a good group and have a good laugh
and as for some saying the fans paying for charter are also paying for the players etc, Id love to live in their make believe world where charter planes and hotels etc cost pennies , if any profit is made on the fans charters it'll be in the terms of a few quid each no where near enough to cover 40 or so MFC staff and at the end of the day MFC needs money and thats generally what we as supporters bring to the table
I emailed the group that had contributed the money upto about £400 with the suggestion that:
both sponsored strips go into the raffle as two separate prizes and all the tickets go into the hat, but that no one can win both prizes or for other suggestions or objections
with the feedback so far I reckon thats how we'll go with it once I get the final couple of contributions in.
on that note Jam20 can you PM me an email address so I can keep you informed
Still very much collecting mfc 88, so all contributions welcome
£100 or so short of the target for two tops to be sponsored but a great amount so far in a week
