Ok I will start with 1st pledge. £1 for every away goal scored by a striker or attacking midfielder and £2 for every away goal scored by a defensive midfielder or defender. I will make 2 payments the first on Dec 31st and the second after the last game of the season. A goal at Wembley should we play there will also count. In the unlikely event Mildenhall scores I pledge a tenner.

That is a mighty pledge Sean. I doth my cap in your general direction.
I will pledge one pound for every clean sheet we keep. If it looks like I may end up skimping, I shall pledge more.
If they got the skills, I pay the bills. Y'all.

I dont think the club deserves any money after how they treated you and this scheme. I pledge £5 for every board members that leaves and £10 if Watola is sacked.
Until then i will be paying any spare cash into brisa in order for them to challenge the terrible way the club is run. Whilst Watola is in charge any money goes into a black hole.
Will review my feelings after the q and a but i wish you good luck.

In response to Dinsdales comments - I was anticipating this in fairness and have heard musings of this ;
My thoughts/honest view
I started The FFS Club to bring some positivity to the fanbase through the OF and at the same time encourage some unity and help with some fundraising.
I, like others have expressed disappointment in the way the Football Club is run, but i will not ruin what i feel is a good idea that brings fans together and in some instances improves their enjoyment of the club.
I'd like to mention the subject of money raised - The FFS does not just collect money in a donation like way, for every penny received by members it is used to Sponsor Players, Matches and Club goods, therefore i would say you get something back for your cash. If for instant you become a member, then YOU Sponsor a player/Match, which is possibly something many could otherwise not afford. In effect - WE INCREASE REVENUE AT THE CLUB, we do not donate monies without a product/service in return. In my opinion this is why it has proved a success to so many.
No one will ever be pushed to join, i have never asked people to join, every member has read the details of what the FFS is about and made their own mind up. Over the last few seasons The FFS has been ENJOYED by members and many have expressed to me that it has been the thing that brought some enjoyment back. That's not me blowing my own trumpet, its me being honest.
Friendships have been forged, Funds have been raised, Prizes have been won, Fan's have enjoyed parts of the football club that they wouldn't have before, and finally, a "Spirit" has been there for all to see.
I won't take away something that i feel so many have enjoyed and benefitted from. I have views/opinions the same as anyone else.
The Club and Fan's are in my heart and they will always come first. I'll have to take the criticism if it comes but that's my views and i stand by them. I realise i can't please everyone and for that i apologise.
Yours respectfully, JTS

The club get our money every time we turn up on a Saturday.
FFS is the best tenner I have ever spent on Rovers. Period.
40 quid last year got me a box seat, 3 course meal, programme, I sponsored a game, met the MOTM and got my mug shot in the programme.
I also met some brilliant FFS members and GregsGas.

Restricted re. attending matches due to health stuff, but being a member of the FFS really made me feel that I was part of Rovers again. Haven't felt like that for quite a long time, so it was more than worth a tenner. Bring it on!
I'm hoping that things will brighten up for me, and, if so, I'll be happy to pitch in with a pledge.

I agree with you all but right now my heart is not in it. Not a reflection on you. May change my mind by the time the season starts.
As it involves two forums (i hope) twitter and facebook (i hope) are you having a new name ? Also to reflect the closing of the forum. Would be happy to join a Brisa player sponsor scheme as it would promoting us.
