My friend (a Mackem pig ) sent me this…

Help raise £30000 to Help bring Adam home

If you can afford it, it would be nice to support the lad. It’s a very sad story and just makes you realise how it could happen to anyone.

Feel free to move Nick if it shouldn’t be in this bit!

Terribly sad , hope they raise the funds

torchomatic · Mar 18, 2025

That's really sad. Donated.

covcity4life · Mar 18, 2025

That's so sad. Never take life for granted.

Earlsdon_Skyblue1 · Mar 18, 2025

Donated a little bit as well.

Very sad story but hopefully the lad can continue to make progress.

CovInEssex · Mar 18, 2025

Poor lad

fingers_crossed · Mar 18, 2025

Donated too. Would be great to see a few of us help out with this.

olderskyblue · Mar 18, 2025

Donated, hope it helps the lad

torchomatic · Mar 18, 2025

Think the thread title needs changing as it doesn't matter who the poor lad supports. It's not about that.

Sbarcher · Mar 18, 2025

Yep - donated yesterday. I was born near Perterlee.

Nick, maybe put on sticky for a while.

torchomatic · Mar 18, 2025

@Nick could you change the thread title to something more suitable "Sunderland lad" or something like that.

Old Warwickshire lad · Mar 18, 2025

That’s fair mate, I have changed it upon recommendation! Apologies if anyone took my previous title in anything but jest.

No need to apologise. I wasn't offended or anything, just thought the thread title could be changed.

Thanks for highlighting as I would have missed this otherwise.

I saw that, real nice of him considering how some Sunderland fans have treated him.

Just donated.

I was being a bit cheeky TBF. The daft buggers can't really react negatively though - can they?

torchomatic · Mar 18, 2025

Nice to see how many CCFC fans have donated.

Just shows when it comes to serious stuff, which football team you support doesn't really matter.

eastwoodsdustman · Mar 18, 2025

Just chucked a tenner at it. Had a lad that used to play football in my kids team and a lad I play cricket with that had something similar and its heartbreaking to see a youngster have to deal with it.

steve cooper · Mar 18, 2025

If it's still open at the end of the season I'll get Chicken McGraw to cough up for it when he loses his bet.

Warwickhunt · Mar 18, 2025

so sad! donated

I hope you’re right but I’m very confident it will be my chosen charity receiving both astute’s @Lamps and your donations.

Think astute @Lamps said just giving pages can’t be used last year so might be worth checking first. I’m happy either way:

Referee

Robins said would be a soft penalty And? If he has seen a replay he isn't going to start bollocking the ref in a post match interview. It was on TV fella people have watched it back and seen it was clear pen. It seems the people on sky said it was a clear pen as well.

What a terribly sad story. Just bunged them a tenner.

He said we won't make the playoffs so I had a charity bet with him.

Briles · Mar 18, 2025

Bless him. Keep the donations coming eh

Codder · Mar 19, 2025

Nice to see this side of the football community in action.

Just donated and good luck to Adam and his family.

skybluericoh · Mar 19, 2025

So sad added a few quid

Sbarcher · Mar 19, 2025

This is the response from the fundraising organiser.

To say we’re overwhelmed is an understatement, we’ve reached the £20,000 milestone in less than 3 weeks. We have been personally touched by the donations and messages coming in from football fans, not just Sunderland but amazingly from Coventry, Hartlepool and we’ve just had one from a Newcastle fan (Adam will think that’s hilarious). Thank you all so much and keep sharing 🫶 Together we can make a difference

Ccfc_Addy · Mar 19, 2025

Kneeza · Mar 19, 2025

I'm wondering if we get a different reaction from them next time we play. Has surprised a fair few of them that we are actually human and have feelings.
