Match worn shirt Clarets v Blackburn ticket raffle (mods to confirm)

Amex · Post by **Amex** » Mon Dec 12, 2022 6:40 pm

I was fortunate enough to place a winning bid for a “match worn shirt”
Burnley V Blackburn 13 November 2022
I also got another shirt so I’m good with this.

During the original thread it was mentioned Many times about raffle tickets……
Well I’m prepared to offer this match worn shirt of a Burnley player worn during our 3-0 win as long as it generates over £500

I’ve no idea how to sort this, i did send a mail to mods but had no reply, probably busy.

The money can be split 50/50 with a charity dear to my heart and possibly the youth set up at Burnley?
So who’s up for it from the mods or someone who can run this.
It would make a good Christmas present or just to hang on your wall as a memento of our fabulous day

I think it would be best for the raffle to keep that quiet, a sort of Christmas surprise.
I can upload photos of the box and front of shirt but I would not be wasting my time or anybody’s else’s
Hope you understand x

Brilliant idea and a tenner a ticket is a small price to own one of these sought after shirts
Good Luck I hope the mods allow this.

IanMcL · Post by **IanMcL** » Mon Dec 12, 2022 7:27 pm

I am happy to partake. Just a few hundred more then!
Foodbank seems to be the current favourite.

Nori1958 · Post by **Nori1958** » Mon Dec 12, 2022 7:27 pm

I'd need to know which shirt it was before I parted with a tenner... Otherwise its a great idea

I’m happy for the 50/50 split to be my charity and what the majority think for BFC side of things.
It will also allow us to see how the tickets go that way it will allow others to push for this in the future

Hard lines
I will confirm the shirt was worn by a Burnley player and he was on the pitch during our 3-0 win
What more do you need

I'll have a go

I’m sure you will sell plenty

Bosscat · Post by **Bosscat** » Mon Dec 12, 2022 7:59 pm

I'm in if MOD'as allow ...

it could go next to Dean Marneys number 8 from 2016 ...

Hope the Mods allow this, and Ians suggestion of the Foodbank is a good one, as a lot of us contribute a "tin for the bin" on matchdays already

Zlatan · Post by **Zlatan** » Mon Dec 12, 2022 8:03 pm

Excellent gesture Amex - I’m in for a ticket or two for sure providing it’s OK with the mods on here

As I was the one that raised that I thought it should be a raffle I can’t really say I’m not in can I

jjclaret · Post by **jjclaret** » Mon Dec 12, 2022 8:12 pm

Great idea, regardless of who's shirt it was.
Count me in.

If it’s any player who was on the pitch, the victory was one we’ll all remember so it’s worth having as a supporter

Stevie2112 · Post by **Stevie2112** » Mon Dec 12, 2022 8:45 pm

Count my son and I in too

Buxtonclaret · Post by **Buxtonclaret** » Mon Dec 12, 2022 8:46 pm

Think its a wonderful idea.
I'd second the Food bank suggestion.
I'd have a couple of tickets.

claptrappers_union · Post by **claptrappers_union** » Mon Dec 12, 2022 9:01 pm

I’ll give you £501 now.

Seriously though, I’ll buy a ticket for sure

Amex · Post by **Amex** » Mon Dec 12, 2022 9:04 pm

Just need a Mod now that I can communicate with to sort the detail, it would be good at the top of the board (sticky??)

Draw it at end of season, if it earns over £500 then 50/50 split
To chosen BFC charity and my charity which is the
Cystic Fibrosis Trust.

Which player

Spike · Post by **Spike** » Mon Dec 12, 2022 9:21 pm

I would join in with at least one ticket.
Needs to be drawn in the short term Christmas would be good.Not end of season
I would contribute more if it could be won as a Christmas present

Cabbage · Post by **Cabbage** » Mon Dec 12, 2022 9:31 pm

I’m in and my son too. Great idea.

NorthIsCool · Post by **NorthIsCool** » Mon Dec 12, 2022 9:31 pm

I'll take at least one if as suggested above.
Your charity choice and the Foodbank collection

arise_sir_charge · Post by **arise_sir_charge** » Mon Dec 12, 2022 9:49 pm

I’d buy a ticket so long as it’s an outfield shirt.

bobinho · Post by **bobinho** » Mon Dec 12, 2022 9:54 pm

I'll have a go. Player irrelevant - happy to be surprised.

Nice one AMEX.

Hope the mouth breathers don't manage to get this thread closed. The rules seem to be straightforward. Want a chance to win this shirt? Buy a ticket - buy a few tickets. Don't want a ticket because you're getting all moody because you don't know who wore it? Don't buy a ticket, but please, whilst you aren't buying a ticket, stfu and let everyone else get on with it.

Cheers.

Great gesture Amex. I’d be happy to buy a ticket.

Hi Amex, a nice idea. For some reason your proposal made me think what the rules are for organising raffles (aka lotteries). After a little googling it appears the Gambling Commission set the rules.

I recommend taking a look at this link:

www.gamblingcommission.gov.uk/public-an ... -a-licence

Types of lottery you can run without a licence

You must follow the rules for the type of lottery you plan to run. Otherwise you could break the law and face a fine or imprisonment.

run a small lottery for charity with my club or group

run a fundraiser at an event

run a lottery for my customers as a business owner

run a lottery with people I work with

run a lottery for people I live with

run a small lottery for charity or to raise money for my club or group

I'm sure there's something that can be worked out for your proposal within these rules. Good luck.

I agree with this. It’s spontaneous, it’s Christmas and people are more charitable this time of year. I’m confident that you’ll get just as much for the causes of the draw was done in a matter of weeks.

Not knowing the identity of the player makes it more intriguing.

I image that the mods may have something to say about an activity that runs the risk of a fine or imprisonment.

Get it right and everything OK. Get it wrong and there may be no money for any charities.

Who knows, it may be these rules that result in the club holding auctions in the first place.

IanMcL · Post by **IanMcL** » Tue Dec 13, 2022 2:22 am

Thought...

You set up a JustGive Page for us to sponsor you to donate to your charity and the BFC Foodbank.

We all chip in at £10 = 1 chance to win the unknown shirt.

You and someone of authority then get together and write our name on the back of a cloakroom ticket (per £10)

The draw is made somewhere public with an independent person (no ticket) making the draw.

Winner notified on here, and the delivery can be made.

So far, I reckon you have pledges of about 200 pounds, maybe more.

We could do it by Christmas if the nos are there and the donations made. If not, no reason why it should not end the year with the draw, as far as I am concerned.

Thank you Amex.

The opening post mentions Christmas, a later post suggests an end of season draw, needs to be now in my opinion.
