    Never got the pleasure saw him play, but how can any Hull City supporter not donate, I'd not be able to mention his name again knowing I'd not helped.

    EDIT: If this Appeal was out during fans being allowed back in the stadium, the awareness would have generated far more to the cause.

    This is a really good move by the club. It always worth remembering that we have some very good, very decent people doing good things in the backroom.

    Come on City, great initiative, and full credit to the club, but can we have some transparency about how much precisely goes to Chillo.

    Also is this the right time for 'Chillo' My Life Story to be reprinted (first published in 2004), it's a great read and if this could raise further funds for Chris's family that would be fantastic also.

    They've said all profits will go to the appeal. I wouldn't expect them to know what those profits will be until the campaign's been running a while. And when they do hand over some money I wouldn't expect to see a full P&L to support it.

    It's easy, buy a t-shirt for a fiver sell for twenty quid (16 after VAT) profit of 11 quid goes to Chillo!

    What's not transparent Les? The profit goes to the Chilton family,it's a welcome gesture and IMO doesn't require scrutiny .

    He seems to assume there's not VAT on the purchase
    and he thinks that VAT is 20% of the selling price rather than the price before VAT

    Don’t buy a t shirt for £20. Donate £20 direct to the fund.

    I've already donated to the fund but would also like to feel part of it further by buying an article of clothing..

    Only if you don't use an outside logistics company to deliver your online orders and you only take cash for them, every other way of doing them incurs charges, which will differ depending on the number of items ordered and the payment method used. It's perfectly reasonable to just say all the profits will be given to the fund.
