Last season Deva-chat sponsored a player and gave some money for Baz to do the pitch. Any plans to do so again this season? If so, count me in. Yeah, I’ll throw a few bob in the hat if someone can sort a gofundme or something.

£180 for a season home or away shirt. Count me in if we do a fund raiser.

I'm not sure if anyone has looked into it, but I'd be up for chipping a few quid in here

Hi all yes CFC commercial is still alive and kicking. Kevin Roberts shirt is at the ground, so I will need to know what you want to do with it. I believe someone suggested it should be framed and put up in the blues Bar. Following is a list of available shirts for the coming season.
Louis Gray Away only Kevin Roberts H & A Jamie Morgan Away only Simon Grand Away only Danny Livesey H & A Harrison Burke H & A Dan Cowan H & A Jude Oyibo Away only George Glendon Away only Luke Clark H & A J.J. Away only Marsh Hughes Away only George Waring H & A Darren Stephenson Away only
James Hardy, Anthony Dudley, Declan Weeks. All shirts taken.
Please let me know what you want to do. You can contact me on. paul.bodman@chesterfc.com

I’d be happy to chip in to continue the Kevin Roberts sponsorship seeing as his home shirt is available again. Makes sense, what do people reckon? Like a partnership.

Think it needs to be a home shirt ideally. Livesey home shirt for me. Otherwise Dan Cowan?

We just need someone to set it up.
I had a go yesterday, but it seems like you have to put your own bank details in, and then it gets put in your account for you donate to the cause. I'll do it this weekend if nobody else fancies it, and of course I wouldn't dream of pocketing a penny for any donations, but it might be better if someone working more closely with the club did it.

Just bumping this up. Imo it's a Deva Chat initiative so quite appropriate for one of the mods to organize. Would be great if you can do Lobster and I'd be happy to chip in again. It's a good link between the forum and the club.

If it helps, I'm happy to setup a PayPal Money Pool, for people to start adding contributions.
Would that be OK for everyone? I don't think you don't need a PayPal account to make a contribution.

How about we use the official CFU donation site so that there is no worry about where the money goes?
Not sure there is a reference field that we can set ie "Devachat Sponsorship"? Or failing that maybe everyone puts in the same unusual amount eg £7.77 so that it is easy to see which the transactions are for the sponsorship.
One for a club insider to advise on maybe as it would save setting something else up.

Didn’t Si just do it off his own back and took direct payments last season? Can he not just do the same this time?
I’ll reiterate, it would be nice to continue the Kev Roberts sponsorship from last season rather than switching to another player but obviously go with the majority.

Not overly bothered and will support anyway but if we are going to frame the shirt in the bar then why not go for a different player? Unless we donate and auction off.

Tend to agree with agl really.
Feel it needs to be a Home shirt though. That way Deva-chat gets a positive mention every time he plays.
All those remaining have their merits, for different reasons. Livesey for his performances. Cowan good new signing. Burke came through Youth set up. Will he play much though? Clark played for free last season. Deserves a sponsor. Roberts came through Youth set up and returned. Noticed Williams and Clark weren't included on the list. Will they play much though?

I feel we need to crack on to allow time to gather donations. Thanks again to Si for offering to arrange.

Happy to announce that the funding page is now LIVE. We are aiming for sponsorship of one player, with a stretch target for two. I've set the fundraising page to last for TWO weeks - appreciate some people may be on holiday so I think this timeframe is short enough to get it over to the club before the season, but long enough for everyone to have a chance to contribute. After the two weeks, I'll check with Paul to see what players are available for sponsorship. Link - www.crowdfunder.co.uk/deva-chat-player-sponsorship-2

Contact me with who you want to sponsor on my email paul.bodman@chesterfc.com Many thanks Paul - we'll raise the money and I'll touch base with you on who is available to sponsor. Regarding Kev Roberts shirt - if everyone is ok then I'm happy to donate back to the club, it could be used for future raffles or framed, I'll leave that up to the club to decide.

Could it be framed and put in the Blues Bar with a little plaque “sponsored and donated by Deva Chat”?
Feel like the forum unfairly gets a bad rep considering this is a lot more sensible and grown up than Chester fans groups on Facebook and fans on Twitter, and something like that would help with perceptions.

That's my pledge done.
Agree with FOP's post above. Never thought I'd type that!!
For the same reason we should sponsor a Home shirt, so that people are aware Deva-chat are contributing.
