Pete The Badge - 77th Birthday Pictures / video pages 19 / 20

Happy to put in a tenner.

LThey still do the shoutouts in the programme, they have about 4 pages worth these day

So who at the club should be approached to organize it?
If @City_Shirts thinks it's a good idea.
Is he still planning on going to games this season?

To be honest mate I'm pretty sure he wouldn't be interested and would prefer to watch the game from his seat. I get asked to ask him on lots of various things and it's always a no.

Gary Owen has been in touch so hopefully will arrange something via Gary.

The club should give him the full Tunnel Club experience. But they probably wouldn’t let him in because of the dress code

 

[City_Shirts]

I've done this for his birthday before and also over Xmas during the COVID period and I can honestly say the cards from fellow blues will mean far more to him than anything else.

I'll speak to him this evening and the get the feelers regarding a upgrade experience but I know the what the answer will be.

Some lovely posts in here. I’m sure lots of us would chip in if a fund raising page were organised. Maybe Pete could fill in at left back?

Sits near the front of CB doesn’t he, not far from SS. I can see him from up in the gods in SS3.

Remember when one of Coppack’s snide rag twats at Media City called him ‘Bertie’ on the BBC football website? Think @Lucky Toma wrote an article about their subsequent excuses and squirming iirc

77th minute

“ One Pete the Badge

Now there is an idea! And get the club to put the camera on him - 77 mins whole gound stands and applauds

Edit. Best make it 57 mins to include those leaving on 70 mins :D

I’m sure the cameras could pick him up on 77 mins and put him on the screen

Knowing city we’ll probably score and ruin it !!

Big thank you to everyone who’s got in touch so far to pledge birthday cards for Pete, I know these will mean the world to him and really give him a boost.

PM to get involved

Manchester City.....
Ruining birthdays since 2008

 

[BlueTG]

Bump.

City are at home to Palace on 27th August.

@City_Shirts can you arrange for something in the programme?
Also I'd be willing to chip in and have Pete in a lounge for the day or Ardwick Pub - just make it a special day for him with food and drink thrown in.
No idea how much these areas cost but if 30 of us chip in a tenner (or 60 of us a fiver) that's £300
Just a thought....

Speaking to Pete tonight, I've arranged to drop all the cards etc I've received for him on his birthday, Friday 26th August.

The club have also sorted out a video message from a current player.

I'm going to book a stadium tour for that day and Pete's going to stay over in Manchester as we have Crystal Palace at home the following day.

Was looking at booking First Class for him as it's a birthday treat which is coming in at £230 from MK return.

A few blues have mentioned about chipping in for Pete so wondered if any would be interested in helping cover the fair.

Just a thought for now

Sounds a good idea ….

Check if he has a senior railcard, if not they are on offer on Trainline.

With the railcard you could get 1st class for £151 - Friday morning direct train and return after 6pm direct on the Saturday. Standard is just over £50.

 

[Mad Eyed Screamer]

I'm sure plenty on here can all chip in.
Will he need a hotel too?
Great that the club are doing a video
