Agreed, would be good in the future museum that has been rumoured. It might be worth the Tranmere Rovers Trust bringing it to their attention. After all the clubs pockets will likely be deeper than individual fans Quote Link to post Share on other sites

SydenhamFox 570 Posted 23 September 2020 Report Share Posted 23 September 2020 (edited) Good luck with the fundraising. Seeing that just reminds me of meeting my brother off the coach at Wembley car park. I didn’t have a ticket to the match so watched it in a pub right next to the stadium. My brother was really pissed after the coach ride and fell asleep for most of the game! I should have had his ticket! 😂 Edited 23 September 2020 by SydenhamFox Quote Link to post Share on other sites

murphy 6,564 Posted 25 September 2020 Report Share Posted 25 September 2020 Now I'm not one for buying into stereotypes about scousers, perish the thought, but how come you've got our flag? 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

That was our 7th Wembley appearance in 10 years and 3rd League Cup final in 4 years - we'd probably ran out of room for them Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Popular Post Tranmere Rovers Trust 35 Posted 25 September 2020 Author Popular Post Report Share Posted 25 September 2020 It has been at Prenton Park for now close on 20 years, not to sure how the whole pitch banner ended up back with ourselves. It has basically been left under one of the stands since then and never used so we thought let’s utilise the Trfc badge in the currently empty stadium and see if the Leicester badge can go to a good home and at the same time put some monies into the local Foodbank helping those less fortunate. 17 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

It might also be worth a tweet to the LCFC players that played in the game, they might buy it and donate it to the club.. I reckon you can get a lot more than £100 given the good cause Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I'm pretty certain once the club get wind they will be far more generous than a poxy £100. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Collymore 3,669 Posted 26 September 2020 Report Share Posted 26 September 2020 (edited) Bet it weighs a bit, I presume postage would have to be taking in to consideration. This would be good for a local pub maybe, saying that, with the current state of the pub industry this is probably not a priority. If a normal person buys this surely they'll be putting it into storage which is a shame, unless you've got loads of space to lay it out. Also looks like it needs a scrub, will it likely come up as new with a bit of cleaning? Edited 26 September 2020 by Collymore Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Tranmere Rovers Trust 35 Posted 26 September 2020 Author Report Share Posted 26 September 2020 Yes get a jet wash or a deck scrubber on it. It’s a matting with small air holes in 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
