Dan Deacon 55,223 Posted January 19, 2015 Share Posted January 19, 2015 As I've just posted on the Sponsors' Fund discussion thread, the various RM Funds will be buying a total of 59 tickets on Monday.And we'll be buying all the best seats that are left - so you'd better get in before us!Here's the details...Fernando Ricksen Testimonial Match TicketsSo I put the word out to Erskine, Combat Stress and Quarriers that we had tickets available for the Fernando Ricksen game. The response has been better than expected...Erskine:Unfortunately the match is at the exact same time as the Erskine Burns Supper Celebrations, which is a major event in the Erskine Calendar, usually attended by all. But despite that, there are still a few Veterans who would much rather be at our party than theirs. So the RM Erskine Lunch Fund will provide the 11 tickets needed to the 3 homes. (5 Veterans, 5 Carers, 1 Driver. Erskine Mains, Erskine Bishopton, Erskine Glasgow)cost: £112 - RM Erskine Lunch FundCombat StressThe Residents (and staff) of Hollybush House were delighted with our offer, and this game seems to have captured their imagination. They put a list round and it came back with 23 names on it. (it's a 25 bed hospital!)So virtually the whole hospital will be at Ibrox that day - burglars take note.(They also have a couple of new residents coming in next week, so we'll give them 24 for now, and more if they need them)cost: £288 - RM Sponsors' Ticket FundQuarriers StopoverAs mentioned above, we'll be providing 24 tickets to Quarriers Stopover for all 14 Residents plus another group they work closely with (I forget exactly, I'll get the details later) plus some staff.So again, burglars take note - another empty building. cost: £288 - RM Teddy Bears' FundSo in total, RM Fund Donors will be providing 59 tickets for the game (or maybe a few more)Total cost: £688And of course, all proceeds from those ticket sales will be going to Fernando's 4 charities. This deserves its own thread. CooperSF 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buy yer goddam ticket today or else.Keep believing...I remember that, best day of my life, travelled 7,000miles on the Friday to watch the game on the Sunday - and back again on the Monday.

The Monk 3,207 Posted January 19, 2015 Share Posted January 19, 2015 I think there will be loads paying at the gate (it is pay at the gate right?), would be shocked if there were less than 40k Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Inigo 32,532 Posted January 19, 2015 Share Posted January 19, 2015 I think there will be loads paying at the gate (it is pay at the gate right?), would be shocked if there were less than 40kProbably, but I wouldn't assume so. There's been nothing said about PATG, so don't bet your chances on it. JUST BUY A GODDAM TICKET THE NOW!!Surely there's only so many they could allow for that anyway because they'd need to have accounted for Stewarding and such?

Inigo 32,532 Posted January 19, 2015 Share Posted January 19, 2015 Gonna bump this because it's about to get busy. Just remember folks. A secondary benefit of filling the stadium is to show those fucking about with the club that the support is still there, it's just staying away from league games because of them. It'll also show prospective investors what they can look forward to if they can bring a positive direction to the club!But primarily, support the charities!!
