The VSC presented the club with a £3000 cheque from the sharpshooter fund 10 minutes before kick off on Saturday, we're you not there then? :p

Hi guys,
Just posted detail on front page of website....detail is:
Just a few lines to say many thanks to all our supporters who gave so generously to the Billy Sharp ‘Sharpshooter fund’.
It was a pity we could nt generate a lot of ‘on the pitch’ presence for the presentation of our cheque on Saturday just before kick-off, but John Ryan had been asked to do several last minute interviews by SKY and by the BBC, and he was also playing ‘mine host’ to a lot of visitors...
As a result we lost the chance to announce the presentation via the PA system – and we had to dash across to the East Stand to wait for a chance when John & Stuart Highfield were free – but they both wanted to take part in the presentation as they really appreciate our efforts and are very grateful for all that has been done by the Rovers Supporters club and the VSC.
Thanks to Paul Mayfield & Rob Clark who presented the cheque – no doubt you will see their pretty faces in the programme and on the VSC website very soon. They are available to do weddings & childrens parties too.....
In the end we raised just short of £3000 – a very credible effort – its a pity Paypal take a lump in commission charges, but we rounded up the cheque to £3000.
We had a lot of folk contributing to the cause, and we will do a lucky draw for all who contributed – we will get a signed shirt by Billy for the lucky winner.
Steve Uttley is organising the shirt and we will let you know who wins later...
Thanks again,
Cheers
Gareth

I would have been on the councourse, or slipping from the south to west stand avoiding detection from the stewards!

At a minimum we would have had all the away bus collections and people including me would have given monthly contributions....??? Why the time limit? He is here until the end of season?
