Norway has written on the article, about its cheaper for him to post direct, i have copied my reply below, for lads out of the country who wish to follow this route. Thanks for the Response Norway, as i live in Amsterdam and Ballin in Kenya Ballin is sorting out the Kenyan side and the team, the coach has already joined this site Sunderland afc Keroche, and they are trying to organise an Internet access where a lot more can join here. As far as the collection points go i asked for a volunteer to handle the Sunderland side of things, And Bruicesbeaks name was throw in the hat ,unfortunately hes on holiday at the moment so we will have to wait until he is back for the Sunderland end to burst into life. As you out of the country and would like to post i can give you Paul's details privately, he is the team coach, his main concern at the moment is boots balls whistles hard to get there at reasonable prices, or if you would like the name of the local church and the lady's name who does the charity on that end to post direct if you would like to do that. Which brings up a good idea by you if any supporters not in England, and would like to contribute, please send me a notification and i will reply with the adress and contact details.
Thanks for the update amsterdam - I'll wait to hear back re: the Collection points, as I have a couple lined up.
Thanks AR, will sort out my bits (what size boots approx ?), get someone to take them back to UK and send to collection points when established. Thanks again
Norway, Please give me the address - I have a top, shorts and some old (but ok) pairs of footie trainers and shinnies I have grown out of. I'll get a package together and add a deflated ball or two, whistles et al. D.
Thanks lads i appreciate the help and it will be cheaper for you guys to post direct to Kenya, later today i will notify all who write on this thread personally, please check notifications on the top of the page for the private messages.
Thanks AR, will be away for a few days but back week 12 then will get sorted, am going to buy some boots size 6 ? and a couple of balls. Have a mate who is something to do with PR for Viking footbal club he might be able to help with some boots/balls. I don't have any red and white striped shirts, mine got left, when I left. Will be in UK for a couple of days at end of march(family and medical reasons), will get a couple of shirts, medium? and send them all along with any other kit that I can scrounge. Shame that SAFC haven't bought into this. Cheers, you will have to empty some of yr mails, couldn't mail this to you , your mail box is full
thanks to all SAFC fans abroad who have promised to help our local team,we will appreciate anything given by you for it will put in better use,the boys are working hard
Roger, Don't know if you received the reply to the PM as the site seemed to be having issues at the time I sent it. I have a few lads at work who are also gathering balls, whistles etc and other associated football items for this effort. We've got a deadline to donate for end of next week and we'll post to the address you provided. Many thanks.
Really appreciate the donations Toon, a big thank you from me, and i am sure the guys there will thank you when they receive them.Sunderland AFC Keroche is their team manager, so when the overseas guys help, the donated gear will go direct to the local church then on to the people that need it. if any of you overseas guys want to send direct for ease and costs the address is Mrs Rachel Kimani C/O St Francis Xavier Church Upendo Village 1919,20117 Naivasha Kenya And a big thank you from the bottom of my heart. I am awaiting Brucie to finalise the Sunderland collection points, for all those eager to send.
