Hi All,
Firstly must say some really great results of late Guys and Gals.
Well I have been roped into doing a very embarrassing charity event this week for 2 Fantastic Cancer Services here in Donegal Ireland.
Both these services mean a great deal to my family, especially over the last 3 years. So as hard as my event is going to be I'm only too happy to help both these charities.
Well in an attempt to boost our fundraising I took to writing to a few footballers. A couple of great results, ad a couple of disappointments.
Firstly I wrote to each of these players asking if I could send them shirts for dedicating to the winners of them. I got an imediate yes from Celtic Legend Billy McNeill, someone I've been honored to have done business a couple of times before. Next ex Irish, Man Utd, and Villa Legend Paul McGrath replied with a positive result. Unfortunately I never got a reply either way, despite my SAE from Ryan Giggs, Kenny Dalglish or Ian Rush 😞
Still I'm delighted with my results and I'd be delighted if you guys and gals on this wonderful forum would be interested in entering a raffle for these shirts. I also have a Ally McCoist Rangers dedicated shirt on offer thanks to help from Brian at captains armband.
