    Evening all,

    On the eve of the City Liverpool game in support of the Darby Rimmer Foundation, the remaining 410 pounds generously donated by you kind folk has been submitted to the Distance For Darbs campaign, helping to break the target set by Bradford City and Bolton Wanderers staff.

    https://t.co/Tg6KfyHdmJ?amp=1

    Hope everyone enjoys the game !

    Just a note of thanks to @Nick_W_@Nick_W_ who had the original idea for the flyover, and was an equal partner in getting this thing off the ground (pun intended).

    I hadn't realised I hadn't mentioned Nick in the OP, so apologies for that bud.

    Perhaps let the T&A know. They like a good news story and it showcases, positive action on the part of City Supporters in supporting two worthy charities.

    Excellent efforts @JonButterfield@JonButterfield and @Nick_W_@Nick_W_

    Whilst the notion never got off the ground, the impact ( no matter how small) it had at the time and charitable donations were worthwhile.

    Good work Jon.
    In the end the threat of the fly over worked in everyone’s favour, with two worthwhile charities benefiting.

    Thanks Jon, for all your work in organising it in the first place, for taking a lot of unfair criticism and for sorting out the donations. Good man!

    Cheers John, and 2 fingers to all of those that criticised the flyover.
    Fan power CAN work.

    See @bantam65@bantam65 post in the Reeves thread. It went to help Jake with his most recent injury. So that’s 3 worthwhile causes!
