The Daily ITK Discussion Thread/The Great Big Spurs Community Donation Drive - 9th July 2024

Apparently donations are not allowed to be made to SC from NZ????

Mate make the donation to me here in South Africa...it's allowed... I swear to pay it over to SC

 

[cookiemonster]

Trying not to get my hopes up with 4 - we've all been here before.

Would be delighted with 3 - Neto, Eze and a LB.

I'll be amazed if we get a top CF, but who knows, let's see!

These 3 chaps we are waiting for better not be Marcus Edwards. Kyle Walker Peters & Scott Mctominay

Good idea. I will try that.

That doesn't work either.

Some countries have weird PayPal donation regulations. You can always message @Rob and ask him to send you a PayPal payment request for the amount you wish to donate.

EDIT: This method has already been tested from Malaysia, which has similar international PayPal blocks in place. Rob's usually pretty busy though, so please be patient.

Log in as Australia?

 

[ChChSpur]

Select Australia as the location and put in any address in Aus. That’s what I did and I’m in NZ, works fine.

 

[southlondonyiddo]

Just donated

Keep up the great work….

PS Does this entitle users to **** off ITK’s?

……asking for a friend

 

[cliff jones]

I fkin love you Herc.

Anyone tried Sake? It's quite strong...

Yang and Eze, followed by two more which will depend on outs

Thanks. Just donated £50

 

[-Afri-Coy-]

I’ll do my end of window donation as always

Eze £50
Neto £20
Chiesa £30

This is obviously predicated on A&C’s promise to not buy any “toys” for banning purposes with my money. If none of the three come to fruition, I’ll donate £50 anyway.

I hope Levy realises how much at SC is riding on his business this window.

He lets us down every window!

I'd say it's the people pledging donations based on unreal expectations, who are letting everyone down.

I never understand the pledges to a site that has now power to force through deals. Your pledges IMHO should be because the site is an incredible community, that brings together people from all walks of life, who no doubt would have a huge hole in their lives were the site to shut (Chat, Pictures, Spurs Chat, ITK, Cheltenham Tips etc etc). Why limit what you would give the site based upon what a third party does or doesn't do? Why should Rob et al be hit because a deal couldn't get over the line. I adore this site and I'm here everyday. Just take a look at "I'm not doing that great" / "Unhappy relationships" to see how many people need it.

Exactly my point, the whole "I'll donate 200 quid if we sign Mbappe, or a fiver if we don't".
Either donate or don't.
Or better yet, set up a monthly donation that you end up not even noticing, so the site gets a steady income all year round.

I understand the donation drives every window because it's when the site is busiest and gets most traffic but I'd also say to those who spend a lot of time here then, take a bit of time to explore the rest of the place and get to know the community.
It's well presented, well moderated and made by fans, for fans but also caters for @scat1620 !

This is a great place to be all year round, no matter which forums you spend most time in.

I'll set up a monthly donation as and when The HITMAN Thread is Pinned as a topic in Spurs Chat.
