I have some very good news for all those kind hearted people who donated to the  Cup Final Surfer Flags.

 

You all bought into a vision and collectively we created our very first ICT giant flags for the club. 1st ones in 20 years 

 

I have wanted to announce this for quite a few weeks but 1st wanted to make sure the head count was correct and also wanted to remind those who said they would donate, to actually donate, without telling them of the outcome

 

Being a community club and a proactive club, the chairman and I wanted to reward those who gave but did not expect anything in return.

 

For the individuals who donated towards the flags there are various prizes on offer to be drawn at a later date. 

 

The prizes are as follows.

 

1st prize   A signed shirt from our very first cup final.

equal 2nd and 3rd   is a pennant and  a signed  photo from the glorious great escape semi final, containing 5 players looking pleased with themselves.

4th prize is a poster of the fans which has been signed by the players.

 

On top of that.

Its been a great season and to pass on that feel good factor, every single person who donated towards the flags will each receive a miniature flag of their choice and I more or less know which flags to order due to the private poll carried out over the past few weeks. 

These have yet to be ordered so we are probably a few weeks away from getting any sent out.

 

Special Thanks to.

The fan who contacted me regarding the supplier.

Don for Designing the flags.

Peter our safety officer for advice at the design stages.

Our Chairman  Kenny Cameron,  for listening to a fan with an idea, for the continual support, the prizes, collecting the money and also contributing to the flags. 

CJT for their collections, contributions and for offering help to get the flags out on display.

Caleythistleonline for the paypal links and the publicity.

All the sponsors.

The club and players.

And lastly the nuts and bolts of the club, You. 

Whether you contributed or not, they are Your Flags  and represent you and your club. 

 

If you are a bit miffed that you have missed out on the above, there are also some cracking prizes that the club have made available to the 1st 1000 season ticket holders and  the early bird season ticket prices finish tomorrow, 6th June, so if you get your skates on, not only do you get money off your season ticket  you might win something too.

How about donating it to the new kids club that cjt are setting up - just a thought and you could decide on what they do to earn it

 

 

I doubt that'll be topped.

What other animals have people taken to the football this past year?

Quite a few but I am too polite to name them.

Another suggestion would be to give it to one of the overseas fans who rarely if ever get a chance to watch games other than on TV or Internet links.

Id much rather let somebody who has suffered for the cause claim the thing. That means lots of travel, not being retired, being anti-hughes etc lol

Im a mere 500 miles away myself.

 

I broke my foot for the cause in 05. travelled to Denmark. I was retired but I'm ok now. And I've never been an anti if my life. Does that work?

Seriously though......stick it on ebay

No chance its going on ebay, even for a charity auction, I do want the shirt myself but I know theres many more deserving of the prize.  Even if it raised a couple of hundred quid in a charity auction (at the most), what good will that do a local charity?  Not much.

 

I/We need to figure out how best to decide where its new home should be. 
 
I'm open to suggestions.

That's good  and Scotty had 'Poached' Salmon for tea so everyone's happy.

The flags are now on the move via road so I hope to get them towards the end of next week. I hope to get as many as poss sent out next weekend. Including prizes.

If you haven't done so can you please send me a pm with your name and address.

The prizes and flags have now been despatched, the response has been very good and I am now only waiting on 3 replies from fans for an address.

 

I will try and put up a picture later of the prizes, as Jim Bowen would say "lets look at what you could have won."

Lets look at what you could have won.

Im still waiting for Sheepslagger, Wynthank15 and Crownboy49 to get in touch, so if you know them ask them to send me a message.

Oddquine your flag has been passed on as requested, I gave it to a 5 year old (who isnt a current ICT fan) he chose the Together We Believe flag and he wants to put it up on his wall and his mum is now looking to enroll him in the Summer Hotshots Programme.
