What else would I be doing on a Friday night?

Looking after donations to a very worthy cause? ......bump....?

Many thanks to Keeps01 who in his usual spirit has just made another donation.

Upon checking my records, I see that I've actually forgotten to list his first donation from last week!

 

So many thanks to Keeps01 who has already donated £50 for a Rangers TV Annual Subscription. 

 

Also in his usual spirit, Keeps01 will be donating a big pile of his usual spirit for Erskine again this D-Day.

I imagine it will be something similar to his donation last D-Day...

 

 

So that's Erskine sorted for their traditional D-Day Ration Packs again this year.

Many thanks to 10pshortof17pound for his donation.

Many thanks to DexterMorgan for his donation.

[govanblue 16,847]

Many thanks to saltire266 for a whopping £200 donation.

That will go a long way towards renewing our 4 Combat Stress Season tickets.

Do da - 'another three points' bump

Get it off the bottom of the page bump.

Many thanks to SportingIntegrityMyArse who has remembered an unpaid debt from long long ago.

We used that donation to buy an extra 10 Rising Stars for yesterday's game.

 

That brings our total for the season up to a nice round 200 rising Stars, which is £400

We didn't win yesterday, But Rangers Youth Development get another £20, and it also gives SIMA a warm feeling inside knowing that he's propping up such a blatantly corrupt system.

Many thanks to jayzer who has donated 2 tickets for the Petrofac Cup Final  

We know a couple of Veterans from The Coming Home Centre who would definitely appreciate them.

One of the Veterans is 78, so I'm sure he knows the Road to Hampden well enough - but who knows - he may never get a chance to see us lift the Challenge Cup again.

That warm feeling was the tiddle of pee at the exciting prospect of us winning the Rising Stars. Then I remembered it was a fix, and we hadn't won.

Hopefully we're all the same as to lifting the challenge cup

The Fund's other 10 numbers were 130101 - 130110.  The Winning ticket was 130278.  Closest we've been for a while.

 

That reminds me - we now have another 10 lines in play in the Rangers Lotto, for another 20 weeks or so - so there's still every chance of another windfall.

Many thanks to RFC Eagle for his donation.

Right, that's enough frivolity for one night.  Back to the serious stuff now.

Did I mention, we've got an Argyle Restaurant Lunch for 10 (£90 for the 3-course Pensioner's Meal, plus £40 for drinks) to pay for next week?

Just out of interest, what was the final total for this season?
