It was muted on here last week, that because of the current loss of revenue at the club, we on the Forum should have a collection to sponsor a player. Well I think it is a good idea and so I am asking if there is anybody else out there who would wish to contribute. I am willing to collect the money ( You can trust me I'm a policeman !) if people want to send it in. It will take just 10 people at £10.00 each to raise enough for one players shirt or 5 at £20.00.

 

I know there are some of you who already sponsor a player but I am appealing to the others who probably find the full £100.00 a bit much. My suggestion would be that we sponsor the player as the "Margate Fans Forum" and would suggest that maybe we could sponsor the new player that we might, probably, maybe, hopefully sign in the not so distant future. Obviously this will be open to a vote and at the presentation we could have a draw to see who gets the shirt.

 

My plan would to get a final total and at a forthcoming home match (we have plenty to choose from) present the cheque on the pitch or in the clubhouse to a member of the board, as a group.

 

Another suggestion is that if I get contributions from enough people out of the area, the sponsor could be as The Margate Exiles. I know there are a few in the London area.

 

I will start the ball rolling with £20.00, which I will contribute to the club whatever happens, and if anybody else wishes to contribute you can PM me for my address.

 

If anybody else has any other suggestions please add your comments here.

OK Everyone, Thanks for the offers. £130.00 pledged so far, so we are well on our way to our second player. I can't seem to put my address on my profile without it coming up on home page so please PM me . I have looked at the fixtures and Hendon seems to be the best time to present the cheque. I will be able to make that match, but because of the lack of home games I will not be able to collect your money, personally, beforehand. Therefore it will be easier to send me a cheque please. It has been a terriffic response from people so far after just one day. It would be great if we could get the two shirts sponsored so if any body else wishes to contribute any amount is welcome.

Great initiative MS and a great response.

How will you decide on which player/s to sponsor?

As stated in the opening paragraph, we will have a vote on it nearer the time.

Just to let everybody know, Cliff Egan rang me this morning and is over the moon with the great response that we have had to this appeal. He has personally donated another £50.00 to the collection which brings the total up to £300.00. So that is 3 players sponsored so far. He would like me to pass on his thanks to everyone who has contributed and has confirmed that we can hand the money over at the Hendon game, which will be a presentation on the pitch at half time. I would like to have as many of you there as possible, and I think this will be a great time to show other Gate supporters what great passion we have at the club, and what can happen when we all work together. I must go now as I've come over all emotional!! :signthankspin:

Great stuff, well done to all especially Steve and, of course, to Cliff for coming back so quick with a club response.
