dean023 Posted 26 March 2016 Posted 26 March 2016 Hi, As you may or may not know, I'm creating an A3 photo message book to give to the owners, thanking them for all they have done for the fans. Things like: Subsidised away travel, free scarfs, t-shirts, breakfasts, flags, badges, beers, clappers etc (not to mention the £100M debts cleared) I'm asking donors of £5 or more to send me a photo of yourself/members of the family in LCFC gear with a personalised message to the owners.(an email will be sent with details) All money raised will fund the book and then any remainder will be going to the foxes foundation. Deadline for donations is 10th April and deadline for photo/messages is 17th April. Thanks Dean www.gofundme.com/lcfcgift sample page https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=10154003357649780&set=a.10150097345689780.282891.843894779&type=3&theater
LCFC FOX Posted 26 March 2016 Posted 26 March 2016 I'm sure they'll read every single one of them and in ten years time they'll remember Steve, 33 from Wigston Joking aside, is there really any point in this?

I personally just want to say thanks, but I realise this isn't for everyone
Guest Posted 26 March 2016 Posted 26 March 2016 Due to being photogenically disadvantaged and a cheapskate, I probably won't be participating. But do think it's a nice gesture and salute your efforts.
SemperEadem Posted 26 March 2016 Posted 26 March 2016 Personally I feel putting money into Union FS displays sits better with me. The owners get enough cash out of me as it is.

The owners get enough cash out of me as it is. Foxes Foundation was the clubs request as it's the owners that set this up
Heskey2011 Posted 26 March 2016 Posted 26 March 2016 I think this is a great idea, id like to be part of a thank you to the owners in some way, (other than just shouting "nice one top's dad" at then end of season party thing) they do so much more than most owners (and dont need to) and anyhow what can you give a billionaire to say thank you, showing them the love can't do any harm, and if it just sits in their downstairs shitter unread for years, one day it'll get picked up and bring a smile I'm sure.
Heskey2011 Posted 26 March 2016 Posted 26 March 2016 Just checked dean023 post history and you've only been on here a month, you deffo not just running a scam here are you? Can anyone vouch for you? Mods help please!

Vardinio'sCat Posted 26 March 2016 Posted 26 March 2016 good effort, Dean. Each to their own and all, but well done for getting off your arse and making something happen. Best wishes for a decent total.

Sol thewall Bamba Posted 26 March 2016 Posted 26 March 2016 Not one for me but seems to be coming along quite nicely, good work.
promised land Posted 26 March 2016 Posted 26 March 2016 Good luck with it but subsidised away travel, t shirts and such like, you might find comes out of the £200k every Premier league club receives, yes they have done a hell of a lot for our club and we are all grateepful for it. But getting something for the owners, really?

I forgot to mention that all donors will also be able to download the finished book to see your message and everyone elses
TrentFox Posted 26 March 2016 Posted 26 March 2016 Good for you, fella. Couldn't care if people like it or not - myself included - the fact that you did it is excellent in a world of apathy and cynicism. Will happily donate.

But getting something for the owners, really? well if that's the case I stand corrected. But I wouldn't have thought 200k would go very far over 19 games ?
GaelicFox Posted 26 March 2016 Posted 26 March 2016 depends on your opinion. I personally just want to say thanks, but I realise this isn't for everyone Will you do a draw from the people who paid in to do the presentation ? Seems like a way of being inclusive
GaelicFox Posted 26 March 2016 Posted 26 March 2016 well if that's the case I stand corrected. But I wouldn't have thought 200k would go very far over 19 games ? 10k a games it's about exactly what was spent But I'm delighted we got it Be nice to see it carry on next year when the 200k is gone
Wymsey Posted 26 March 2016 Posted 26 March 2016 Very good idea. Can see the owners having pleasure out it - especially via such an excellent season, and fans enjoying themselves thoroughly (i.e. the main priority).
GaelicFox Posted 26 March 2016 Posted 26 March 2016 Personally I feel putting money into Union FS displays sits better with me. The owners get enough cash out of me as it is. I sent dean a message a while back asking if the next TIFO could get a donation from this money
dean023 Posted 26 March 2016 Author Posted 26 March 2016 I sent dean a message a while back asking if the next TIFO could get a donation from this money As I've said the money is going to the foxes foundation Charity
Bob Weasel Fox Posted 26 March 2016 Posted 26 March 2016 I've already put into the fund Dean, good effort buddy Up the Foxes
