    Just seen the Rob, Stephen and Doddy tributes to Kevin Sinfield so feel a bit emotional. Does anyone know if there will be a collection at the Northampton game? If so, I hope that publicity will be given.

    A great idea. Hopefully we do have a collection especially as that will be Day 7 of Sinfield’s gruelling challenge. I think we should get this publicised asap and even a gesture from the club to match all donations.

    I'm sure if it's publicised you can nip to the ball and grab some cash. If you're tight you can even get it changed at the petrol station on Valley parade.

    Charities and events are generally equipped with card machines now - it's not just change into a bucket anymore.

    Might be able to make a donation on card.

    Remember the days when two blokes walked along cinder track around the pitch and lastly the the Bradford end with a blanket. @Bronco@Bronco ?

    The poor sods got battered with pennies. It was a regular occurrence.

    The blanket collection was like taking your life in your own hands as you came past the Bradford End you found out who your friends were, those old pennies certainly hurt when they hit you, it would be some "risk assessment" this day and age ;).

    Even Lenny throwing sweets to kids was deemed as dangerous.
    World's changed but, not for the better.

    If you're from Bradford, you'll know that many 'local' shops are still very much cash only.

    For reasons that don't take much of the imagination.

    I believe that Kevin Sinfield will arrive at Valley Parade on Friday afternoon around 3.30pm. He sets off again at 7am on Saturday morning to Manchester, starting from Valley Parade.

    I'm intending to be at Old Trafford when he arrives on Saturday.

    Good man. We will be at VP Friday. If the system wasn't so corrupt I'd say he should be SIR KEVIN.

    Just seen Kevin Sinfield will be coming to VP on Friday at around 330pm, I’m going to try and get down hope others can too. Secondly just seen a good luck message from Stephen Darby, so sad to see that he’s now struggling with his speech. If I was ever to say I was desperate for a cure for a disease it would be this one.
