Fawlty Towers Posted May 21, 2020 Report Share Posted May 21, 2020 Just posting here about easyfundraising as there is an element of "preaching to the converted" by always posting in the thread specifically for that. If you shop online regardless of whether it is once or twice a year or every week you can help our club through easyfundraising. You have to register on the website first which is quick and easy (select wearethistle fundraising as your cause). When you want to purchase something online you log in to easyfundraising, select the retailer and you are taken to that website. From there the process is the same as normal but your purchase generates a donation for our club. The amount is based on the amount you spend and what the donation rate is for that retailer but you don't pay anything extra. If you have not signed up please consider doing so as at this time our club needs as much income from different sources as possible: https://www.easyfundraising.org.uk/ Thanks!

We are weak and would walk out with our tails between our legs as they all laughed at us if we demanded compo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you think they would all laugh if there was a legally backed court case? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sandy Posted May 23, 2020 Report Share Posted May 23, 2020 Crikey, does this mean we’ll be trimming our squad too? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looking at the squad there are 15 players who have contracts which pass the end of this month and then there is Ross Docherty who has indicated he would still come. There was a report last week of players taking large wage cuts and some having relegation clauses so we will need to see what happens but the one thing that seems clear is that, as the thread title says, we need to keep supporting the club.

Fawlty Towers Posted May 24, 2020 Report Share Posted May 24, 2020 Thanks to whoever has signed up recently taking us to 143 members If you know someone, they don't have to be a Thistle fan, who shops online on a regular basis or has started to do so because of the current situation please encourage them to sign up so those purchases raise funds for our club: https://www.easyfundraising.org.uk/ Let's work together on this. Thanks, as always, for your support! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
