Brazilian Posted June 1, 2013 Report Share Posted June 1, 2013 going to try and raise funds to sponsor at least one player again. it'll be the 9th season by the WTFC-steelmenonline forums If you want to join in, just pledge an amount in this thread and I'll add it to the first post as we go THE IDEA & COSTS The idea is that people contribute in multiples of £5 in order to get their name on 'raffle ticket' for a draw. Each £5 increment will get a name on a ticket & place in the draw The winner of the draw will receive the sponsors privileges ( sponsored top & opportunity to receive it at an end of season event) So, if you donate £5, you will get one chance at winning the strip/s, whereas a £20 donation will get you four chances and so on....... It's basically whatever you can afford, but £5 is the minimum pledge. I thought about making it £10 but folk in the past have pledged various multiples of £5 and it all goes into the club not everyone can sponsor a player as an individual, but doing it like this we can help support club and every fiver contributed has approximately a 1 in 65'ish chance of winning It costs up to £350 to sponsor each player, last year we managed to reach £700 to sponsor two euro tops @£350 each which was pretty amazing so hopefully as a group we can get some money together again and help out PAYMENT options: Send PayPal payment to.... iainmande@hotmail.com , PayPal takes a cut but if the contribution is marked as a GIFT payment then I should receive the full amount and the sender covers the charge Please remember to include your board name in the PayPal payment so I can mark it off, and also that it's for sponsorship and remember its a GIFT payment message me with a PM or post here, if you require postal details to send a cheque or if you'd rather meet up and pay cash. I think Ecky and Stipelsgod'dad had a good evening out last month as our winners, at the night in the centenary suite in the company of players and management. 2013-2014 pledges (paid in bold) SteveDiggle £20 SMc £20 Big Wispy Flossy £20 Denny C £20 WeeYin £25 DelBoy £20 yosemitesam £20 NottsMFC £20 snap19 £20 Linsey12 £10 ClaretandBamber £20£40 Ecky £25 coolhandluc £10 siebsbarmyarmy £20 specialaka £15 Kmcalpin £20 Optimus Prime £20 Andrew K £10 Well_nuts £20 Mad_Dog £50 JoeWarkTheLegend £10 Toxteth_OGrady £10 Andy P £10 Brazilian £65 StipelsGod £ wellarmy £10 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StipeIsGod Posted June 2, 2013 Report Share Posted June 2, 2013 I can confirm that my dad had a great time at the sponsors night in my place. Loved getting to talk away to the squad, got a fully signed top, and photos with a good few of the squad. He was sitting for most of the night with Adam Cummins and Steven Saunders, and said that it was a good laugh throughout, and everyone was dead welcoming. I'll fire a donation for this year over after Thursday coming. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brazilian Posted June 2, 2013 Author Report Share Posted June 2, 2013 Hope we can beat last year's total. Cheers weeyin, Received in PayPal , and updated in first post Like always I'll be delighted if we can get together enough to sponsor one strip. But if we can get more, all the better, club gets cash and at least one person wins the opportunity for a great night out and a relatively unique piece of memorabilia Cheers.

Another handful of posts will see you right to use the PM facility but I know Brazilian has been in contact with a few folk about the Player Sponsorship via email so I'm sure he'll be happy to hear from you via that if you prefer.
