rosa Posted December 29, 2010 Share Posted December 29, 2010 Nice idea. Have you contacted the club? They've probably got a load of the flouro yellow kit gathering dust somewhere. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

leeslover Posted December 29, 2010 Share Posted December 29, 2010 I'll give you three or four of my old ones, sure lots more will. There are down south a the moment though. Maybe ask the club shop to hold any for you? Arrange a couple of dropping off points for the day of the Dale game, get it in local medai? It's one thing to have an idea, you need to help people to make it work. Good idea though, follow it through Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
opinions4u Posted December 29, 2010 Share Posted December 29, 2010 I'd contact other local clubs too. Bury, Dale, Stockport etc. I do have a Hollands Pie branded football that I doubt I'll ever use. Still in its packet, and needs pumping up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure they would want to be running around in polyester. And Ecuador is only 10 places below Ireland, and 1 below New Zealand in the world GDP rankings. Aplogogies if I have misunderstood you.

another fan Posted December 30, 2010 Share Posted December 30, 2010 And Ecuador is only 10 places below Ireland, and 1 below New Zealand in the world GDP ranking Possily a valid point but nowt wrong with encouraging anyone to wear a Latics shirt (Fluro yellowor not) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ritchie82 Posted December 30, 2010 Share Posted December 30, 2010 Is there not poor families in the North West that could do with the donation? I know refuge and asylum seeking families would love these. Not too keen on all these do gooders going overseas to help the disadvantaged. They tend to be the bed wetting type who get all preachy when they get back. If you want to help someone without a house or some downy kids then there are plenty in need of help in your local area, no need to travel a 1000 miles. Just an excuse for a holiday in my book.

I understand what you mean, but they do need the shirts due to the fact that the shirts would be the only bit of clothing these kids have. It's also not as hot as you'd imagine in June and July there winter months. Is there not poor families in the North West that could do with the donation?

What a stupid thing to say. These "downy" kids are like that maybe because of there upbringing or because there just little :censored:s ? The kids in Ecuador are in more need of help, they have no school properly it's a real poverty hit part which we are going. I bet these kids would love to be over here as a "downy" kid. I don't know about you but a holiday to me is a relaxing time beside the pool or a bit of time on the beach , not teaching kids football helping them build football nets etc hard working.

Thanks Lee, I see where you are comig from now. Not trying to put a downer, just clarification. Make sure you take the contracts with you for any talented kids to sign!
