AVFTT Sponsor a player fund

[GJJW]

In that case perhaps you know some deserving child or whatever who would have his/ her life made much improved by having a photo with a player.

Well that would be me then

 

[GJJW]

Poll for player number 2 is now up guys. Get voting.

 

[Tangerinemoss]

One GJJW, there's only one GJJW

 

[TangerTonyGreen]

Two players sponsored in less than 24 hours!! Great work all, if we make it to three. Does GJJW get the match ball?

 

[GJJW]

Shall I contact the Armfield Club to make them aware we are proposing to sponsor a player on their behalf you think?

Yep

 

[MilitaryPool]

Wouldn’t that then become a business sponsorship?

 

[Big_Flag_Man]

Again, very kind, but plenty much more deserving than me. Perhaps a draw.

How about you can do one and draw from those who donated for the second, for me you can do both.

 

[Big_Flag_Man]

Wouldn’t that then become a business sponsorship?

I am sure the club would give some leeway.

 

[GJJW]

I can check with Martin at the club to find out. Hopefully be ok.

I’m sure either way between us we can all raise the funds. If they want it as a business sponsorship then it’s more money it to the club as a result anyway

Just asked the question pal.

 

[LA1 Seasider]

If we do sponsor a player on behalf of the Armfield Club they’ll have to try arrange a ‘pint with the players’ type of night.

I'm up for that pal!

 

[GJJW]

Ok guys. Just heard from the club. If we sponsored the second player on behalf of the Armfield Club, it would be classed as a business sponsorship which is £900 + VAT. Still some way off raising that! At the mo, we have more than enough funds to sponsor 2 players as fans. Perhaps we stick to this and donate any surplus funds to the Armfield club?

Sounds good to me G. At least the club would get the money this way.

Could host the player meet at the Armfield?

 

[Kendal_Seasider]

Yeah stick with the fans sponsorship for me

 

[Love BFC🍊]

Yeah fans sponsorship

 

[Bispham_Seasider]

For me, I think any excess would be better given to Trinity as suggested.

 

[GJJW]

Thanks guys. Dont want it to become too complicated!

 

[GJJW]

For me, I think any excess would be better given to Trinity as suggested.

That is another option pal. Perhaps split it if we raise enough.

 

[seasidemike]

Great idea Gareth, donated.

 

[Simonized]

Sponsor another from us for me.
I don't think you can now do what you like with the donations that have made on the premise it would be a second sponsorship.

 

[LA 5]

HAPPY WITH WHATEVER

 

[Simonized]

A third of the way there, in an hour!!

I see it that way too

 

[GJJW]

£900 up lads and lasses. Donations are open till Sunday.

 

[straightatthewall]

Not trying to be a ** or anything, but probably better to donate the remainder to a charity rather than a business.

Makes a change.....

 

[GJJW]

How about, we donate any surplus funds to a charity, but donate the signed shirts to the Armfield club, meet and greet etc, to the Armfield club to allow them to raffle them off for funds? Win, win? Just an idea. Trying to keep everyone happy

 

[straightatthewall]

Exceptions prove the rule....

 

[Since1967]

I'm in!

 

[Curryman]

I've been busy for a couple of days but have just put a late donation in. £20. Keep going, great idea.

 

[Tangerine Manc]

Been busy all day , only just seen this
excellent idea GJJW , well done
viking it is lol
love the tangerine Viking hat
I just put a tenner in
shame can’t put AVFTT on the outside of the team coach

 

[Seasider]

Yeah fans sponsorship

Yeah fuck the armfield club

 

[Love BFC🍊]

Yeah fuck the armfield club

We can have fans sponsorship x 2 for £840
To do the armfield club sponsorship x1 player it’s £900 + vat
So it makes sense to have two fans player sponsorships and give any excess to charity
If you want to pay £900+ Vat seasider for 1 player sponsorship go head and do it.

 

[Towerpower99]

We have enough already to sponsor two players and have another £130 already...we have all the way to Sunday to see where we get to... Maybe a 3rd player or charity...see how things go imo.

I was agreeing you with you Shelly, if the armfield want one, they should pay for it.

Oh sorry I thought you was being sarcastic lol

That seems to be an excellent idea

 

[GJJW]

Great stuff from Gareth there.

Yes, and if we get close to 3 I will be chipping in again......

 

[GJJW]

£1000 now reached

 

[GJJW]

Its £1260 (I think) to sponsor 3 players. We are currently on £1010.

At this rate we will be able to buy a player next season
One of Owens little money grabbing schemes, but under the new regime could be a goer, as others have stated helps fans identify with the team
