The auctions....

Don't know if this has been covered already, but currently there's Chris Powell's boots and shirt up on eBay that he 'gave the club as a parting gift'. The club then cash in on this by sticking them up on eBay for people to bid on and stick the money back into the club. Wouldn't it be better, what with the club being a 'community club' to have the money go to charity, or even give every fan the chance to buy a raffle ticket to win the item? If 5,000 people buy a ticket at a buck a pop that's £5000 to charity, much more worthwhile than the £40 or whatever it was for a signed picture of Amdy Faye.

    do they keep the money or give ti to delmelza`
  • WSSWSS
    Totally agree.

    Powelly's boots are at about £700 though which is amazing i think!

    the money goes to the club, and to be honest, i think a lot of them are an embarrassment.
  • RossRoss
    ledge.......as far as I can see from reading the boots and shirt articles there is no mention of money going to charity. If I am wrong (Henry?) then fair enough

    Don't know where the money goes but if it was for Charity it would say so.

    A raffle would be fine but a lot more difficult and costly to organise. A £1 ticket would be too small an amount to buy on line or even by post, couldn't just sell at the Valley as not everyone could get there to buy outside of matchdays.

    I know what you mean about a raffle giving everyone a chance but an auction, especially with eBay doing all the work, is more straight forward.

    I agree.

    And I wish I was a student with no responsibilities, no job, no mortgage and getting p*ssed every night. Unfortunately those days are a good 4 years behind me...

    With your lack of mortgage/rent I reckon you're more of a student than me GH. ;-)

    GH did say he was doing an OU degree as well. Some sort of Ology. Bloody soapdodger.

    I remember reading in the programme that the club made no apologies for selling things on ebay. Relegation has really hit the club hard it seems so I guess they need to bring in money anyway they can. And if people are prepared to buy these things then you can't really blame them.
