The other thing is the unity between fans when it's something like this. Aside from all the bickering about everything else I have only seen a couple of negative comments from the predictable places but other than that, everybody is together on something!

I can’t believe they think having a go at this will do anything but turn public opinion against them.

Any chance of the club doing half price on these tickets ? Would be a great gesture that wouldn’t cost anything

Somebody else had chucked an anonymous grand in now too. That’s a mad total. Might even be worth holding some back for next year now if the total exceeds nominations - gonna be hard to get anywhere near this years total next season!

Cannot believe we’re not going to hit £14,000, yes, Fourteen Thousand Pounds tonight, how rubbish is our fan base that we cannot find another £80.

Seriously, I thought this was really slowing down and as I sat in the ticket office buying up around 28 tickets today I thought, what a shame we cannot make £10k, no reason too really, we only made £1,750 last year and this was an amazing amount at £9k but this is seriously nuts, what you have all done and others who have heard about this and helped are seriously the nicest people this city and club could ask for.

You will start to see more stories in the coming days and weeks and just the texts alone today and the tears of joy from adults, children and grandparents are really heartwarming and sincerely, this is all down to you all, I will make sure we share with you all because those individuals are smiling from ear to ear today.

I cannot find the superlatives to really praise you enough so Thank You will have to suffice, you are truly amazing and special people.

Big thanks to Simon and those on the panel who donated two of the tickets to a rehabilitation ward at St. Michael’s hospital in Warwick. Will be a good activity that will get patients off the ward for a few hours and into a crowded place. All aiding in their recovery from mental illness.

This should really make the news. Not to brag or boast - we're not that way inclined, but to let the rest of the country know just what a terrific bunch of fans we have and if we can do it, so can other clubs. I just feel so bloody humble at the moment. Love you guys!

I’ve had the pleasure of going to break the good news to someone today that they’ve been given 2 tickets.
The idea is so simple but is so good with what it achieves.
Well done Simon and everyone involved.
It really does change people’s lives.
