Drumloyal 15,025 Posted May 13, 2016 Share Posted May 13, 2016 Aw man that hit me right in the feels, my wee boy is the same age. Donating as we speak, maybe we should broaden our horizons for the wee man? Link to HSV supporters, Chelsea or similar? Tried distributing the links to the NARSA member associations? Don't know, just hope the wee man raises the money quickly. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tried distributing the links to the NARSA member associations? Yes mate. Definitely! The problem is that neither I nor Joshua's dad are well enough connected to make an impact anywhere outside of RangersMedia. (plus I don't have twitter or facebook!) So we're asking anyone who does have any connections to any of these fine organisations, to please try to spread the word far and wide. And anyone who feels motivated to try a little fundraising activity of their own, like passing a can around their bus, or hassling their club secretary to sanction a donation, please do.

Unfortunately, I'm in the dark ages too, no fb or Twitter. Hopefully there's some German RSCs and some NA bears on here who can gain it some traction in those areas. Maybe Ozblue has some contacts in Ozland? Anyone on Twitter, share it with any official club twitters who are free of the anti Rangers shite in this backwater. Would also be good if Rangers could put it on their fb for exposure. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
