How blessed are we to have a boss like Grant?

[PDX_Rover]

I read that as Prostrate at first. Long day. Brilliant by the gaffer and lads. Lube up a get checked.

[Donnywolf]

Added donation , and signed up for Gift Aid

Then Just Giving awarded themselves a Tip which it took me ages to delete.

Just watching Bank to see they didn't sneak it back on as I would sooner add it to the Pot not give it to them

So tomorrow see’s the start of the October Prostate United challenge.Good Luck to all who are taking part, 50 of us so far joined up under the DRFC banner, can we keep our No1 spot this year as the club that raises the most, currently 4th with Man Utd setting off to a blistering start.

Bump

[Ian Nimmo]

Copps has been doing this again, but this time he’s had a bad ankle. Still knocking up some really good times for his daily runs.

[ROVERSBELLY]

Currently at £21,398 raised by all taking part as DRFC, great effort so far.

[Juddy]

Last year we had a bucket collection at an October home game ( I shook everyone’s hand who put in to my bucket) anyone any idea if we are doing this again against Northampton only home game left in October or against Barnsley early November to help out with the final amount raised ?

[ROVERSBELLY]

Just the weekly bump to remind everyone, we now at £24,372

Another year when the guys and all who have donated have been tremendous.
To be 2nd highest above all those big premier league teams is absolutely fantastic effort.
A tough ask, but would be remarkable if we could top this list.

[ROVERSBELLY]

The warm up shirts are up for auction on eBay, take a look, money raised goes to the cause

[Donnyjim]

A great cause and fantastic effort. It’s no mean feat 10k a day, being a runner myself. It must take it out of you both mentally and physically. Our form dipped last season when the management team were doing it. Wouldn’t it be better doing it in June or July? Six days to go, just get it done. We need 100% focus. Well done Grant and co, I will donate.

[ROVERSBELLY]

Amazing effort so far, just 4 days left, keep going everyone, over £29k raised so far, only £750 behind leaders Man Utd, one final push, please dig deep and donate where you can. See you all at the finish line on Thursday.

[dknward2]

Wonder if Terry would put in the difference to make sure we win i.e if we are a thousand pound behind Terry just puts in 2k just to see drfc over the edge

[Pancho Regan]

We’ve now edged above Man Utd into top spot!

Rovers     £31,456
Man Utd   £31,187
Arsenal.    £14,814
Spurs        £11,713
Liverpool   £9,665

What a fantastic effort

[andy didcott]

Auctioning for the prostate cancer UK match warm up shirts ends tomorrow afternoon on eBay, should add a couple more grand to the total.

[Ian Nimmo]

Brilliant, but tight at the top.

Really disappointing effort again from some of the big money clubs with huge fan base, with probably indicates there is little effort from their players and management, to get fans involved.

Wherever we finish, it would be good to see Calendar and Look North including a piece on the effort of all who have completed their various challenges.
If they did I guess they would not show the list of Yorkshire clubs, would be too embarrassing for their favourite teams!

It is terrible from the premier league clubs to be honest if just the season ticket holders put a pound in each would be minimum 30k each

[ROVERSBELLY]

There’s still 10 warm up shirts with no bids on, grab yourself a shirt and help support a great cause

[Juddy]

Anyone going down the Eco Power to congratulate the lads I will be going just at Lakeside at present

[ChrisBx]

Incredible achievement from everyone who took part.

Side note: I follow Paul Green on Strava and he's been hitting some unbelievable 5km times!
