Hopefully you know the score, this is a fund set up to help purchase season tickets for individuals, families and children who for whatever reason, need a helping hand.
A massive thank you from the previous 6 years, over £54,000 raised to date and hundreds of season tickets purchased from your donations.

Please be as generous as you can and share on all social media with friends, fellow fans and anyone who can spare a few pounds.

Donate Here

If you do donate, please be careful, the site now has an element just below your donation called a “tip” which is supposed to help keep the site alive, Go fund me do take a small percentage off every donation so it is up to you but I would recommend that you make that zero

If you know someone who would benefit from a season ticket then nominate below with as much details as possible as to why they should benefit, it doesn’t just have to be financial, there are many reasons why you may want someone to benefit.

Nomination Form

If you cannot donate or nominate then please, its free to share the links on all of your social media platforms so we can help as many as possible this year.

Lets make Year 7 a fantastic one.

Thank You for your generosity
MMJ

Thank you for the early donations, as pay day approaches, if you have a few spare pounds, it makes all the difference.
If you can share on social media then that would be great as well please

Close to £2,000 raised, I know it’s been expensive with last week but if you have a spare £5 then it goes a long way across you all on this forum if you could just spare that.
Over 100 ST’s purchased last year and memories to last a lifetime from what they’ve seen and enjoyed.

Thank you to those who have donated and also in advance if you can donate.

Dulcet tones on CWR with Vic M this morning but hopefully helps raise a bit more and signpost the nomination link.
68 independent nominations so far with an estimated cost of £10k if we were to help everyone, £2,260 raise to date.
Thank you for those who have helped so far, really appreciated.

Simon Moore has donated £500, if that's our just released goalkeeper, what a lovely thing to do?

£4,700 raised to date, thank you, if I can pull on the heart strings but more importantly your purses/wallets/credit cards further then please see if you can spare some to get us above £5k.

Over 70 good valid nominations - never going to be able to fund even half of them sadly with this years total.

A small extract of some of the ones we want to help:
One family who sadly lost their mother this year and Dad struggling with the children and work but football is the day out fun time together.
One family who sadly lost a child through illness and parent was carer, now no money from carer role and looking for work but wanting to take other child.
Single mother nurse
Some family break ups and want to still give the children the fun days between the parents but unaffordable
Someone with terminal cancer who just wants some days out with his grandson

I know we cannot help everyone but I promise you that those we help, it does make a massive difference and gives them memories that can never be taken away so if you can help again this year then it really is appreciated.

£1,000 donation taking it above £6,000 which is amazing, still more needed to help all the nominated families, if you don't have £1,000 then any spare £5 does collectively make a difference from all of you on here.
I know many have donated already so thank you, over 118 donors to date, really appreciated.

Just a quick update - Purchased 65 tickets today and in total with £11,203 spent
FZ tickets were available which meant we could buy more than if they had been elsewhere in the ground.

Thank you to all who have contributed - still getting nominations and there are others that we couldn't say yes to to start with so if we do receive any more donations then we will carry on buying where possible.

Thank You
MMJ

Didn’t the Club use to match whatever number tickets you bought?
Be very nice if Doug could get on board with this.

They did when first at Birmingham, sadly nothing really now, no free tickets and still had to pay over £500 in Ticketmaster fees to buy the ones we have so far. I sent them and email and they said they would come back but nothing yet.

Just purchased a few more with some extra donations, we are at 71 purchased now, £11,540 raised which was fantastic so really appreciated everyone who has donated or shared my updates on twitter. Wouldn't be possible without all of you so Thank you

I am hopefully meeting John Taylor shortly to see if I can get help from the club as we still have more that we could help with additional donations or tickets.

Do the club give you things to raffle off like signed shirts etc to help raise funds.

Not done so to date, I am hoping to meet John Taylor but he hasn’t come back to me yet but may be a little too late for this years fund. Still want to help more but funds all spent.

I had an update from John this morning saying that Doug and CCFC wanted to help, appreciate what the fund has done and continues to provide with the donations from all of you and others.
We still had families and individuals we wanted to help but we can only do what we can with the funds raised.
I was overwhelmed with their support, they have offered to help with a further 28 season tickets from the club which will take us up to 99 for this year, just a phenomenal gesture, I am still a little tearful and emotional with this news but wanted to share the news.
This club and fans are just incredible.

Thank you everyone who has donated to make this possible. I may have to find a few more pounds now just to make it a round 100
