Hi everyone,
We would like to use the FFS Club funds to sponsor a match in memory of GregsGas who did so much on here and left a lasting impression on so many. Please use the poll to agree/disagree and if agreeing which match you think we should sponsor.
We have Paul’s partner Clare’s blessing and would need to book very quickly so this is a 24 hour only poll.
At present we can sponsor Accrington Stanley Saturday 24th September or Saturday Morecambe 8th October (subject to change):
Both are Cat C games, We could use FFS Club money to pay for sponsorship (£960). The sponsorship includes 10 free places, I would suggest we give 4 to Gregs partner Clare/family/friends, leaving us with six FREE PLACES to give away in a draw from members of the new seasons FFS Club.
After which additional places (if available) would be charged at £50+ VAT per person (£60) to include the below:
Pre-match informal bar meal to include 2 vouchers for a complimentary drink within the suite. Complimentary matchday program for each guest Seating to enjoy the match in the Poplar Insulation Stand Half-time tea and coffee, Fully licensed bar, Team Sheet Witness the ‘Man of the Match’ programme (on a first come first served basis if popular)
Please cast your vote, thanks for reading and please join us this season in our fundraising efforts.

No real preference Jon, but Morecambe is closer to the anniversary of Paul's death and also in the same week he made his last post on here in 2021.

Agree. Could only make the Accrington game, but that clearly should not be the deciding factor.

Many thanks for your votes, this poll is now closed and I have requested we are Match Sponsors of the home game v. Accrington Stanley on Saturday 24th September in memory of GregsGas.
I will keep you updated on progress and if any additional places are available as and when I find out.
Thanks again.

Will one of these tickets go to Don,Pauls dad? I know he has a disability so may find climbing all the stairs beyond him,hope not. Also will there be anything about Paul and why the FFS is sponsoring the game in the programme? that would be nice.

Ok, once we get confirmation of the sponsorship we can decide the finer details.
First and foremost we shall ask Clare her thoughts, Gregsy’s dad will be in our list of priorities, but overall Clare will be our guide.
This sponsorship will be all about remembering our friend and I hope we can put an epitaph style write up in the match program, luckily we have a while to get everything right for a very special day.
