    You may be right but Byrne`s taken the hit (with possibly a couple of £m in the bank) so we will probably never know.

    My concern really was with charity wifie. We know it isn`t but she might easily jump to the conclusion that this is a reaction.

    I don't think she will - just spoke to a Spurs fan and they are not as focused on AJ & MB like us - but that's what makes us special - our passionate support for our club -
    Pops The great charity donation shows no negativity imo

    Did that make sense to you, Wandy :huh:

    I can't remember whether or not I said that we've got £410 for this (but we have) :emoticon-0100-smile

    That'll pay for 414 easter eggs at the 99p shop, make sure you don't go to the pound shop or you'll get 4 less.

    Oh and take your van. <ok>

    Alternatively, I could get Christmas presents and deliver them in my tardis :emoticon-0105-wink:

    Nobody needs to see you wearing a tardis mate, whatever one of them is, I assume it's a little lacy number with frilly knickers.

    Why don't we **** them off and find someone else? Not happy handing money over to these people. I don't trust them to use it wisely now. If we insist on keeping the same cause can we get 410 quid of Primark vouchers so we know it putting clothes on the kids backs? If we're not putting media pressure on them to use it properly this is the only way I'll be happy with this cause.

    Should we have another consensus, then ?
    This one has confirmed that option 3 is 'the one' so that's decided :emoticon-0148-yes:

    Money or vouchers . . . . vouchers would be my choice, under the new circumstances (why couldn't she just keep her gob shut <doh> . . . . why did he fecking do what he did <doh>) but which vouchers ? Primark wouldn't be 'cheap' would it (I don't think so, but some people might) ?

    n.b. it doesn't matter how long this takes (as long as it doesn't 'drag on') but it does matter that we get it right :emoticon-0148-yes:

    I've spoken to Claire from WWIN and my contact from the Echo, and they both think that a bit of good publicity would help to provide a bit of a 'feel good factor' :emoticon-0100-smile


    I'll make sure (as much as I can . . . . it's the press !) that there'll be nothing in this that'll reflect badly on S.A.F.C. (like 'despite the club being baddies, the fans are goodies' sort of thing) :emoticon-0105-wink:

    Another (final) consensus ?

    Vouchers from where? Tesco's?

    I've no strong opinion either way, vouchers or cash.

    Just a thought though. Wouldn't handing vouchers over with maybe even in a press photo look a little odd, rather than a cheque? Does it look like we're trying to dictate what they spend it on?

    Happy to be shouted down by the majority on it. Like I said, no strong opinion either way.

    I just want them to get something. Soon!!!
