Hello Everybody,
I hope its ok to post this here so here goes.
This year we have set a challenge to Stephen Ireland to score 12 or more league goals for Charity for season 09/10. Stephen has accepted this challeneg through his website Stephen Ireland Foundation. I myself has pledged £100 if he gets to 12 goals, and £1 per goal if he doesn't. I have set this up on another City forum of which I will use as the main base but will be contactable through here if the Admin don't mind.
How it will work is that come the end of the season, everybody who has made a pledge will be given the deatails to send their donation direct to the Foundation themselves thus eliminating any doubts about fraud. All I ask is those that are interested to make a pledge of whatever they can afford. I think the ideal way of doing it is guaranteeing a lump sum if he hits his target, or a price per goal otherwise. So far in 24 hours we have pledges of over £400, I am also in the process of finding out if any of the players or staff will match our final combined contribution, hopefull somebody will take us up on our offer but as they are away I will not find out for a week or so.
Please make any pledges public in this thread by stating your pledge and username for the forum, then PM me your name and e-mail, neither of which will be used for anything other than this charitable cause.
Thank you in advance for your generosity
Regards
Mike
