BowenBoys Posted April 26, 2016 Author Report Share Posted April 26, 2016 Well, this is rather lovely. Another sponsored top winner has very kindly donated the top for me to raise funds with. Much appreciated JAGSMAN1968. Ryan Scully's top will go to the highest bidder. Some fine saves from Ryan on Saturday, wouldn't mind this myself. In fact, here you go Ryan Scully's home top Highest bid, currently, is £20 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BowenBoys Posted April 30, 2016 Author Report Share Posted April 30, 2016 Struggling to even look at this tonight. However, bouyed by a nice article in SITB today about our efforts, here I am. Players come and go as do managers, staff and BoDs. There is one constant. We, the fans, are Thistle. We've done just about all we can to help. Whoever runs out next season in the famous red and yellow, they will be running on to our pitch. Abject performance today. Only pass marks, in my opinion, go to Ryan Scully, so often left exposed. Highest bid, currently, for Ryan's sponsored top is £20. PM me please. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harrybriscoe Posted April 30, 2016 Report Share Posted April 30, 2016 (edited) Do you think the players read this forum? Are they even aware of the pitch fundraising efforts of the fans? They're not really helping at all are they. If they do read it, I would like to offer Sean Welsh a wee wager. If Sean can hit the target 6 times, i.e, score or make the keeper save, over the three remaining league games I will donate £50 to BB's fundraising efforts. If he doesn't I would expect Sean to donate £50. Mind you, alternatively Sean could give BB a quid for every shot he balloons over the bar but that could see the poor lad left destitute.

BowenBoys Posted April 30, 2016 Author Report Share Posted April 30, 2016 Don't know about the players. Wouldn't come on tonight if it was me. I'll keep an eye on Sean's shots on target. He did hit a good long range free kick today. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scotty Posted May 1, 2016 Report Share Posted May 1, 2016 (edited) Just to show that (unlike some of the players) fans haven't chucked it for this season. I will raise my pledge for the remaining three games to £10 a point. I've also pm'd you about another auction BB.

BowenBoys Posted May 1, 2016 Author Report Share Posted May 1, 2016 I have for your delight a full set of the art giveaways for this season; Football by Barry McGhee Scarf by Jon Rubin Yellow Card by Jonathan Monk Cushion by Kota Ezawa Thumb's Up by David Shrigley I think we won every game at which these were handed out, so happy memories. There is a hint of irony in these being offered for sale. I once berated an art collector, on the forum, for trying to buy some of these items. I'm reminded of that great song by The Pop Group, We Are All Prostitutes... For the benefit of PTFC, let me have your bids for this great collection.

BowenBoys Posted May 1, 2016 Author Report Share Posted May 1, 2016 No points in three games is not great for a fundraising effort based on points scored. Undaunted by this you continue to add money to the cause. At the end of a truly dreadful weekend for Jags fans, it is a ray of sunshine, like in one of those paintings of, well, rays of sunshine. Since the team last mustered a point, the total pledged has gone up by over £200. The WeAreThistle Centre Circle has gone from 64% to 70% complete. From Happy HQ, thank you for the increased pledges, for the donations and the bids. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm in the process of working out precisely how to finish and when. I will post that in a couple of days and also PM all bidders. If anyone has done anything like this before, PM me please.
