Top marks to Shane and Steven for driving over to Reading tonight to meet Franny there.

Kelvin has been cycling with him between London and Reading.

Finding it quite heart-warming seeing guys who weren't even in Franny's era (Rickie, Deano, Kelvin, Shane, Steven, Jose etc.) all turning out and posting messages of support and giving him publicity. Really nice.

The total has just gone up by £20,000 in just a couple of minutes so hopefully the increased exposure is having an affect :emoticon-0148-yes:
 
Absolutely fantastic! The total is now £341,629 and has increased by about £35,000 in 5 minutes. It's a shame he didn't get this national exposure last weekend as well...
 
In the little crowd scene, I wouldn't have minded in the slightest if they'd all shouted Come On You Royals. Just once. Did anyone notice the woman behind Shane Long shove him and ask, what's the matter with you Shane, come on.!?! He'd been out of shot but obviously hadn't. :)

Just read that and had to text twice more. I'm closer to the wire than normal this month and hence had only text once this time (I did a big donation last time he did it, as I was more able to then) but having read that article, I just thought, "Bollocks, I can go without something else this week!"

Incredible man.

Please fans going to the game tomorrow. DO NOT GO ANYWHERE AT HALFTIME UNTIL YOU'VE STOOD AND APPLAUDED THIS MAN.
