Charity Match Auctions - Get Involved in a piece of history!
www.themightyshakers.co.uk/mboard/phpbb/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=2629
As you'll no doubt be aware this years Charity Match is on Sunday 25th April, to co-incide with Bury FC's 125 year anniversary. To celebrate, the opposition for this game wil be a team of former Legends, along with a select few who have the chance to bid to play in the same team as the Legends.
We are working on Sponsorship packages which will be announced shortly, but apart from that how can you as Bury fans get involved?
Well first of all, there is ONE place left for auction. The winning bidder will play as part of the Legends team and get to play with their heroes!
Second of all, we are looking for 'kit sponsors' for the players. The cost of a new kit has been discounted for us by Surridge, and we'd like to thank Surridge for doing so. Which kit gets used depends on how much we raise from these auctions, but we hope it will be the home one! The idea is simple - you all get to bid for a particular players' shirt. The lucky winners pay the agreed fee by a pre-set date (see below), we buy the kit, after the match your chosen player will sign the shirt, and it's all yours!
Just a couple of points re: the kits. First of all, there's always the possibility that someone pulls out of the squad. If this situation should arise, the shirt will be signed by the entire team. Secondly, there are kits needed for those winning the bids to play(4). Again, these kits will be signed by the entire team.
It now gives me great pleasure to give you the confirmed line up, hopefully there might be one or 2 additions to the squad yet:
