Phil what about Wearethistle forum congratulate and thank Kris Doolan on scoring 100 goals for Patrick Thistle If too many words the second line can be altered to leave just either congratulate or thank.

a f kincaid Posted November 18, 2016 Report Share Posted November 18, 2016 Should it not include the date the 100th goal was scored (and possibly the opposition as well)? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ian_mac Posted November 18, 2016 Report Share Posted November 18, 2016 Talk about splitting hairs. I'd say what BowenBoys has proposed is more than appropriate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BowenBoys Posted November 18, 2016 Author Report Share Posted November 18, 2016 Should it not include the date the 100th goal was scored (and possibly the opposition as well)? As it is a commemoration of the feat of scoring 100 goals, it would be better to have the dates of first and last goals. However, and it's a big however , it would mean that I couldn't order the trophy until after the 100th goal is scored. In turn, that would mean putting back discussion about dates for the presentation. Some people will have travel plans to make for the presentation so will need some notice. With the target not even on the horizon, it could be towards the end of the season. Don't want to run out of time. Anyway, I'm sure Kris won't forget the date if it's not on the trophy.

I asked for suggestions as this event should be a shared experience. I'm just one guy sitting at a keyboard. I have no idea if what I wrote is what you want. So let's have more feedback. If you like Metz', or my, suggestion, let us know. Any other ideas? Thanks Guys & Gals. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BB I just feel that at some point in the future someone other than Kris will pick up the trophy and ask when this took place. Easily got round by presenting the trophy and getting it back to the engraver to complete. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AlexForsythFan Posted November 19, 2016 Report Share Posted November 19, 2016 Please include me in the Doolan 100. Hopefully a bit closer after this afternoon ! My own preference would be for the BB inscription with the addition of the dates. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BowenBoys Posted November 27, 2016 Author Report Share Posted November 27, 2016 Feedback required I have done some research about getting scarves made. To get 100 made in the UK would cost £400. Plus £20 delivery, plus VAT. Total outlay of £504 (£5.04 each) The questions are 1. Do you think enough people would enough people buy them? 2. How much do you think I could charge for them? They are standard jacquard scarves. The design is on both sides. The design is based on an idea posted by sick in the basin. I have asked sitb to give approval to using the idea but have had no reply. Obviously, as it's in the public domain, I don't need permission (unless it is copyrighted) but as this is a community effort, I would like approval.

Barney Rubble Posted November 27, 2016 Report Share Posted November 27, 2016 I like that! Dunno about a scarf, but a T-shirt with that design would be a winner for me. I'd be happy to pay 15 quid for it, assuming any profits went to a charity chosen by Kris. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd be happy to pay 15 quid for it, assuming any profits went to a charity chosen by Kris. All profits would, of course, go to the PTFC Player Fund. Like you, Barney, I would like a t-shirt but I'm looking at scarves for this because it avoids the sizing problem. If I feel that I can shift a significant number, I'll go ahead with this. Would like to offer them to Doolan 100 participants for cost price. That would leave about 70 to sell for £8/9/10? It would be a few hundred for the Player Fund. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scotty Posted November 27, 2016 Report Share Posted November 27, 2016 May be worth speaking to the shop to see if they would sell them as 100 is quite a lot to be selling by word of mouth. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
