Sooperstar Posted April 17 Share Posted April 17 43 minutes ago, the jambo poet said: Didn't realise the raffle wasn't counted in with this, gonna donate too Half of the money donated to the raffle will go towards the semi final initiative. But that money isn't included in the running total that we currently have sight of, so the total raised so far is actually in excess of the £17k on the tracker.

stuart500 Posted April 17 Share Posted April 17 Fantastic sum achieved. Let's not forget the logistics of putting this together in a short space of time will take a huge amount of effort. I'm guessing the donations alone so far will pay for around 250 to 260 people all in. That's a lot of folk to find, shift and feed. Much respect to those who are organising this.

Must be difficult to commit to spend all of it on Hampden given the short timescale.

Looks like transportation is by far the biggest issue at this late stage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
