Fordy62 Posted July 26, 2014 Report Share Posted July 26, 2014 Mods, I'd really rather this not be merged with the NLBR thread, because i think we all see it as one last kick in the balls to the horse punchers. A few of us have decided to start a fund to send Colin Daniel a thank you card and bottle of (inexpensive) champagne to mark what he did for us on 3rd May 2014 at 1653hrs. WTFiGO is collecting by paypal and will sort out the gift and transport of it. Any monies deemed surplus will go to charity. Things that will not happen on this thread... 1. It will not turn into a El-Abd hate thread. 2. Ten minutes of rough will not comment on how immature we all are... if he does do so, he is therefore admitting that he has become devoid of all sense of fun (i.e. had a funsectomy). 3. People will not mention how there are 1,000 other charities that are far more worthy causes than this one. Please all give generously. I think we're all willing to open debate on what charity spare funds should go to... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fordy62 Posted July 26, 2014 Author Report Share Posted July 26, 2014 I hope I'm not the only one who thinks this is very funny. Well done Fordy. I'm afraid i can't take the credit. That should go to the normally deplorable SSX225... "How about - and I'm serious - everyone on this thread chuck in 50p via paypal, and we all send a big card and a bunch of flowers/choccies/bottle of bubbly to Sir Colin and his missus for his great achievement. I reckon it would genuinely make the national red tops. Would need to be someone in the UK, but that would be gold. The Sun "Today, 500 supporters of BCFC sent striker Colin Daniels a huge bottle of champagne for scoring the goal that sent arch enemies Bristol Rovers out of the football league. Rovers, or as they are called now, the Horse Punchers, exited the Footbal league after 108 years thanks to.....etc etc" That would be epic comedy gold that would make it onto just about every football site on the planet, plus a hell of a lot of newspapers. I'll chip in - just needs someone in UK to accept the dosh and post out the bottle of bubbly and a card! Who's up for it?? :clapping:" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

reddogkev Posted July 26, 2014 Report Share Posted July 26, 2014 Looking forward to hearing the applause he receives when he plays against us for Port Vale. Checking the fixtures, we play them away in September, perhaps the travelling fans should present him something on the side of the pitch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rather than spend excessive amounts on Carriage, could you not approach Dave L and Port Vale FC to see we it can be presented pre match against the aforementioned PVFC? He could make his entrance onto the Ashton Gate pitch flanked by Police horses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bar BS3 Posted July 26, 2014 Report Share Posted July 26, 2014 The clubs are not going to associate themselves with this. It is a great idea and I'm all for checking a fiver in, but something that is so blatantly mocking another team, albeit non league, will not be touched in any way by Bcfc, do it will need to be posted to him at Vale Park. There should be a return address included to see if he sends a "thank you" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sleepy1968 Posted July 26, 2014 Report Share Posted July 26, 2014 Buy the bubbly from Waitrose Online (other supermarkets are available) and pay about a fiver for delivery to PVFC maybe? I'm sure it could be ordered online and sent 'gift-wrapped' direct to Port Vale with an included message. Does this thing have legs? If so where are we sending paypal?

It's got legs alright, and they're on a much firmer footing than that poor horse after that maniacal gahead launched his repugnant fist attack on the poor beasts' unprotected muzzle.

kachina Posted July 26, 2014 Report Share Posted July 26, 2014 Or better still, in regards to the Port Vale suggestion, get David Lloyd in on the act, and have him arranged that Colin Daniels is presented with it at the warm up stage of our home game, about 10 mins before kick off, so he can get a standing ovation from the city fans.

zyderiup Posted July 26, 2014 Report Share Posted July 26, 2014 As it's been mentioned before, the club will not get involved with this and we shouldn't expect them to. Personally I am happy to donate if extras go to Horseworld. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
