STAR PRIZE

Matchday Hospitality, Hotel & Chauffeur-Driven Limo for 2 (Club Europe, any League game except c****c). Includes:

  • Arrive at the Glasgow Hilton to check in and have a pre-match cocktail
  • Chauffeur driven to the Stadium in a Jaguar XJ3

Plus more than 25 runner-up prizes (see below)

(and that list will grow, as we continue to receive new prize donations)

 

All proceeds from this raffle go directly to Joshua Burns Adair, a Wee Bear in need of help.  You can read all about Wee Josh in this thread here…

http://forum.rangersmedia.co.uk/topic/295124-can-you-help-a-wee-bear-to-get-to-america-for-an-operation/

 

 

Regular readers of RM Fund threads will know that we’ve been supporting Wee Josh staunchly for the past 6 months or so, and this raffle will hopefully go some way further towards helping him get the help he needs.

 

 

Buying tickets

Each Raffle Ticket costs £10.  So to buy tickets, simply go to Wee Josh’s gofundme page, and make a donation, in multiples of £10.

https://www.gofundme.com/joshuaburnsadair/

 

When you’re making your donation, don’t use your real name (we don’t need to know that!) 

Put your firstname as your RangersMedia (or RangersRadio or Twitter) username, and then for your surname, put RM, (for RangersMedia) (or RR for RangersRadio, or RFC for twitter users) – this will let me see that your donation is a raffle entry.  - And don't tick "anonymous" either - I need to see your donation on the donations page.

Once you’ve donated, contact me, either by RangersMedia PM or in the RangersRadio Lobby so that I can allocate you your tickets, and update the ticket purchases list.  

 

(twitter users - contact @ShipChef on twitter)

If you’re not able to donate via gofundme for whatever reason, contact @govanblue and we can arrange an alternative method of payment such as cheque in the post, meet at Ibrox, etc.)

 

The Draw

The draw will take place some time towards the end of February/beginning of March. The exact date will be determined nearer the time.

The Rangers Youth Development Office (who do the Rangers Lotto draws) have kindly agreed to assist us in our draw to ensure it’s all done properly.

The first ticket drawn will win the Star Prize (Matchday Hospitality)

Another 25 or so tickets will then be drawn to receive a runner-up prize.  Each winner will be contacted in the order that their name is drawn, so that they can choose their preferred prize from what’s left from the prize list.

After the draw, a list of winners will be posted, then each winner will be contacted in the order of the draw, for them to choose their prize from the remaining prizes.

More than one entry per person is encouraged, so you could maybe win more than one prize!!

Prizes can be posted to the winners, or collected from Ibrox.

And then when you don't bother to read the instructions, and just donate using your real name, here are the instructions to go back and edit your gofundme display name...

go here...

https://www.gofundme.com/mvc.php?route=contact/suggest&pq=edit_comment

 

and select the options shown below...

 

gofundme_edit.thumb.jpg.15672b4f5b8f76df

 

then you'll get an email, which lets you edit your name, and your comment.

:thumbsup:

There seems to be some kind of issue with the gofundme/paypal page, affecting some, but not all users.

From what I can tell, the problem seems to be that gofundme doesn't seem to like too many people all having the same surname ("RM")

So if you try to donate with the surname RM, and it just takes you to your PayPal account, without letting you make the payment, then go back and pick a different surname.  Maybe put RM as your first name, and your RM Username as your Surname.

It's not just that for me, l have been trying to set up a paypal account for god knows how long to give donations when l can but it keeps saying my dob is invalid. l have phoned them up and when you finally get to speak to someone they says everything is fine at their end and that nobody else has this problem:angry:

So will go through other means from now on?

1/6/90 I assume?   :lol:

That should still work fine - unless you've gone to papal.com by mistake? :p:

So you may remember that Loyal Fund Member @Poetry_In_Blue donated a "Pure Jongo S3X" Wifi Speaker system, and a pair of touch-operated table lamps as raffle prizes?

I reckoned that there were too many Luddites on here to properly appreciate such high-tech wizardry, so I stuck them on ebay (it's like Noel Edmonds Swap Shop, but on the computer.)

After ebay fees, postage etc, we made £70 on the 2 items.

So we've bought 7 tickets, and put them in Erskine's name. :thumbup:

try

Firstname: show

Surname: time

:tu:

 

Also, if it doesn't work, try just hitting the "back button" on your browser, type the donation amount in again, and click donate again - that worked for me there, without changing the name.

So in fact, maybe it's just an intermittent PayPal issue.
