Roundo Posted April 6, 2009 Report Posted April 6, 2009 I'm looking at running a small fund raising auction for my local Boys Football Club (U11's) to help them purchase new strips and training tops. I think we all can imagine how good they would feel running out on match days in their new kits, just like their football heros. So I was wondering if any of the forum members would like to donate a yb for this very worthy cause then please contact myself. I'm only looking for the fanciers names to begin with to see how the list will look, then I'll gather the details etc... I'm hoping to have at least 20 ybs for the sale and with the approval of Richard, run it on PB by the end of April. Any donations would be much appreciated. Regards, Colin.
