Charity Begins On The Interweb

I was somewhat disconcerted by the fact that even though 28,000 people had given Ebbsfleet £27.50, you had to go round those 28,000 people again cap in hand, begging for money to hire a coach to take the players to Burton. Presumably, had MyFC never come along, your players would have had to walk there. The fact that Nike is providing said players with free kit and free boots next season suggests you wouldn't have been able to afford them either. The image of your squad walking to and from away games, heading naked and shoeless up and down the hard shoulders of the nation's motorway system, brings to mind all those charity collecting leaflets with their tales of women in Indian walking twenty miles to get clean drinking water. Given the comparable heartstring tugging of both traditional Christian Aid fundraising and your own shoeless coachless players, I think you would do well to look beyond the MyFC membership (who - despite our general stupidity - are not a bottomless pit of money) and start stationing those charity collectors with clip boards on every high street across the country. "Hello there, hope you're having a nice day, do you have a minute to talk about poverty-striken footballers..." KER-CHING! Just a thought.

Could a schoolteacher please educate Chatham Gary about the concept of satire.

On an unrelated note, the barmaid in my local (on the south coast) lives in Chatham and has convinced myself and a few of the other regulars to go up there for a night out in a couple of weeks. I've since Googled the pub she is taking us to (O'Connells, her local) and seen it has the lowest score and worst reviews I have ever seen on beerintheevening. Is it really as bad as the interweb says?

From reading the above we can work out a couple of things... Clowntown is a MyFC member and he is generally stupid.

Now I am not saying the two things are linked, but Jaysus - he posts such poor quality drivel sometimes!
