Second time the lucky dip winner hasn't been named?

Apologies, it involves a lot of copy and pasting back and forth. It was P Higgins. C Bailey last week. Cheers dor the heads up.

IMO we/OASF, need to work out a system of fundraising which can work for our unique issues.  
 

Making the fund raising specifically for purchasing the ground, would allow a system to be developed where the contributor ultimately owns a small share of an asset.  If we can have a system where the contributor to the fund, also has a promise of money back if no purchase ever happens, then I’m in for a 4 or possibly 5 figure sum. 
 

I am not prepared to donate that amount with the possibility that it will not be spent for its intended use. I would not want it sitting in the OASF account being frittered away on helping a new owner fund a player or some other so far not invented reason.  If I am not unique and we have other fans willing to contribute even a small amount as long as they have some control and possible money back, we could quickly have a much more impressive amount to offer. It would really be nice to know what Blitz would accept from a fans buy out.

Buying a badge off our present owner is something I don’t want to contribute to, unless it is 1£.

I just want to reassure you that would never happen. And the current  review will cement that even further.

The Lottery is separated out, hence the 1895 branding and separation of banking and signing off.

The FAQ's and details clearly state stadium purchase and/or majority shareholding. There may be unforseen eventualities, but it would have to go back to OASF members. Personally, I think that should be strengthened to contributors but that is not possible currently.

Like I say, propping up the current owner scenario has unequivocally never been an option, and the review will reaffirm that.

Here are the details:

I'm pleased to say the totaliser has been updated.

Can you ask about the pledges as well as the lottery please? I've pledged £10 a month so would be interested to know how many others are contributing in addition to the lottery.

I saw this exchange on twitter. 

By way of an update, as I  pledged openness and transparency, the Lottery has raised £11,385.60 to date.

Of that figure, £4,334 has been played, but the prize money of £1,200  remains liabile, as well as £5 bonus each week.

244 players currently play 288 lines.

24 of the 31 players have donated their prize back into the fund.

Do u still only have £11500 saved ? If not when will it be updated. I think people would be more willing to contribute if they could see the total going up.

Thanks, I'll pass it on to the OASF Director for Comms.
