cider head Posted June 6, 2016 Report Share Posted June 6, 2016 We would like to raise funds for a mural to be painted on the side of the three lions pub in Bedminster, Bristol to pay tribute to fellow Bristol City fans who have sadly passed away including James 'Grizz' Grieve and Mark 'Divvy' Saunders, amongst others (other names welcome) and by fans giving something back to honour our own, giving thanks to fans who made a big impact to the Bristol City community. Please donate and let's make this happen and reach our target £1,300. Money donated will be for the scaffolders and artist time to do the work. The artist we are looking at is Bristol Born Inkie and the scaffold is quite akward to do. Target also to get the money raised and work done by the first home game of the new season for ''Grizz day - Three lions flag day'' so time is sort..

It's possible but the main pain is the scaffolding as it is i'm told '' A complex ball ache of a job'' and where we need to raise enough funds for that alone before we put anyone up there.

RedM Posted June 7, 2016 Report Share Posted June 7, 2016 Heavy hints to Bansky maybe, he did a school sometime over the holidays as they named something after him. Contact him and say you are naming a part of the pub the Banksy area. I'm sure he would get up there without scaffolding. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The idea was to pay tribute to James (Grizz) & Mark (Divvy) but then thought it would be a good idea to add other city fan names to the wall who are sadly no longer with us. There will be a center bit image and names going around the wall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Malaggro is back Posted June 9, 2016 Report Share Posted June 9, 2016 That's not really the idea Phantom. It's memorial rather than congratulatory. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cider head Posted June 9, 2016 Author Report Share Posted June 9, 2016 I am Blown away by it all, never expected to reach target in 2 months let alone 2 days!!! very, very grateful to those who have donated and thank you to the Bristol city fans community out there.. Reached and over hit target at £1,385 so far with some offers still out there to come in but donations welcome. https://fundrazr.com/418aH9?ref=ab_05fmHc Others helping have been in touch with an artist, ideas exchanged, next stage post Glastonbury a rough design will be shared with Sean (lions landloard), and others who are helping to select which names to include...

cider head Posted June 10, 2016 Author Report Share Posted June 10, 2016 Still open for donations and latest online count is £1,450 https://fundrazr.com/418aH9?ref=ab_05fmHc Fundraiser still going and taking donations, An idea also, if we end up with too many names (as i ave been informed that it could effect the centre piece image on the mural) then we cold get a honours board put up in the 3 lions with all the names we can think of and I could up the target on the fundraiser to help buy the board or just keep taking donations???
