Ok we know that season ticket prices are staying at the same price as this year, but when people renew could they be give the option to donate £1 to 1884. That would get you an extra £20k a year. Make it something we have to opt out of rather than opt in to. I am a season ticket holder who think 1884 are doing a cracking job, but haven't donated myself - simply because it is one of those things "I will do later". Having said that I could have donated in the time it took to write this. I'll do it now! Lets not expect Mel to do everything for us. We have raised this with the club but they weren't sure about it, one because of other groups that may feel left out, two because I think Mel feels he can sort it out. Having said that, feel free to put it in the suggestions thread. If it comes from other fans rather than from us suggesting it, maybe it's something dcfc will consider. Thanks for the support though!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Inverurie Ram Posted November 14, 2015 Share Posted November 14, 2015 Have The 1884 Group thought of doing any fund raising in any of the pubs round Derby, donation box, bottle, football cards, scratch cards, lottery cards, bingo, race nights etc. As I'm sure most fans that like a few pre match and post match pints would generously donate money when getting the round in, as it's always a good time to give when getting your cash out and receiving change etc. Even a fanzine, anything that helps generate extra funds. Merchandise, t-shirts, pin badges etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robster1 Posted November 20, 2015 Share Posted November 20, 2015 You got a mention on the official DCFC website today. You boys (and girls?) have done a cracking job. Keep it up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think that extra payments that you have to opt out of are underhand we shouldn't become like sports direct. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it did happen, you would have to opt in so it was always your choice. However, with Mel committing to funding us, it's taken the pressure off fundraising, so we probably won't be doing bucket collections. We are also conscious that charities do bucket collections at every match, we wouldn't want to take money away from them. We still welcome donations via gofundme.com/1884group or you can set up a monthly direct debit of any amount by emailing 1884group@gmail.com. I never see your bank details via either method if you were worried!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RicME85 Posted November 21, 2015 Share Posted November 21, 2015 Crowd was so quiet today. I get it was cold and the first half wasnt great but come on! Make some noise and gee up the players rather than sitting back, lips closed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ewe Ram Posted November 21, 2015 Share Posted November 21, 2015 Wasn't great today despite a good effort from the away fans in the first half. A bit flat all round today, fans and performance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TomBustler1884 Posted November 21, 2015 Author Share Posted November 21, 2015 Yeah, bit quiet all over today. Thought the performance was fairly good but tom Ince was a dead end first half. One of those off days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
