FRED KEENOR BUCKET COLLECTION RAISES £1,158 - THANK YO

The bucket collection at the Sheffield United game raised £1,158. We wanted to thank everyone once again for their generosity.

While not as much was raised as at the Leicester Play-Off game, it should be pointed out, for example, that there were far fewer fans enjoying hospitality on Levels 3 and 4 and donations there were only one-third of the Leicester game.

In addition, we sold 63 Fred Keenor pin badges at the Trust stand, bringing in another £189. There are only a handful left so more have been ordered. Quite a few fans have also ordered badges by post.

We are also awaiting confirmation from Cardiff City of the exact money raised from the Deportivo La Coruna game - £1 was being donated from every ticket sold.

Just to remind everyone we have quite a few fundraisers coming up over the next couple of months including:

* Messageboard football match on Sunday, August 22nd.
* Special 10-inch miniature figurines will be on sale very shortly.
* Ricky Tomlinson fundraiser at the Cardiff City Stadium on Wednesday, September 16th which includes an auction and raffle.
* City fan Matthew Bullock is running the Toronto marathon in October.

great news Phil , so whats the current total at the mo ?

We're waiting to hear from the club on the Deportivo Game and are spending money at the moment on badges/statue miniatures to sell on but probably around £27,000.

Well done, where do you order the pin badges from?

A City fan called Jon Chedzoy who works in Hereford got them sorted for us. I think he's a badge collector himself - good quality as well.

I did not see the buckets at this game
