Gambling for a GOOD CAUSE
Help out my boy
Reply
Hello All,

My son, known to all as The Boy, is a goalkeeper in an Under-10s football team. We're looking to raise some funds for kit and for an event shelter for summer tournaments. To do this we're doing a thing called "footy cards" (which is apparently a well-known thing that I've never heard of.

How it works, is I sell you guys a square on this here card...

... for £5 a time and when it's full, I scratch off that silver panel and whichever person's square is revealed gets SIXTY BLOODY QUID! How good is that??

So, if you're interested, PM me with the square you want and I'll send you a link for payment.
I'll keep submissions open until Friday 3rd March 4pm.

GOOD LUCK

League one too of the tablers Sheffield Wednesday, please.

Also, how can you not have heard of these? Was a staple at the flat roofed boozer I used to drink in. That, and the meat raffle.

Dunno. Sheltered upbringing I suppose?

I guess we'll find out...
Squares going fast off forum!
If it's available, Derby please [because Cottage]

Otherwise I'll trust your judgement on which team is least problematic.

Derby is yours. Thanks, bud
Let's have Villa then, they've got to win something at some point.

It's yours
Ahh, gwan, I'll take one if there are any free. Part of my New Year Resolutions was to do more small donations to good causes.

Also, I'd feel bad being mean about the wonky clip-art if i didn't donate!

Thankyou! Your square is Ipswich!
Only 2 squares left! Man Utd and West Ham await their champion!
Only Man Utd remain! Who will claim the Devils?
Will you live stream the scratching off?

I feel I may have to
Get a celeb in.
AND WE'RE ALL LOCKED IN!
I'll sort out a way of fairly scratching off the card tonight so I'm not accused of shenanigans!
I’m pretty sure we all trust you, Mr Paz :D
The heck we do. I demand an independent adjudicator!
Ah bugger, I wasn't on video. I'm a fucking idiot! But here's a still of the result...
Non-forumite Helen is the winner!

Thanks for playing, your generosity is as always very much appreciated :luv:
FIX!!!

Absolute cheatin’ fix up! I demand a re-scratch!
It’s a great idea. I’ve never seen these cards before, either. They do look like they were produced in 1985, though. It’s only the phone number that makes them look like they were likely printed afterwards.

What did you rub it gently with the edge of in the end?
The Boy used a special coin.

Generously, MrsPaz is donating her winnings in full to the football team. Only fair really
That’s really nice. Best outcome all around.

Register it as a name at companies House and sponsor the team so it can be printed on the kit

They remind of the FAST ads that littered Amiga magazines.

I never did get the £1,000 reward. Cunts.
Your generous donations were greatfully received by the Greedy Fucking Football Wankers ;)
I hope you presented it in the form of a big fuck-off cheque with BeExcellentToEachOther.com on it.

Almost. A shady wad of twenties on the edge of the pitch
