Thanks to Colin Payne (again) and Darren Baker for running the collection at yesterday's game and to all who contributed once more. I am awaiting confirmation of the exact amount collected but believe it was just short of £70.
Ticket 109 was claimed by Dave Harrison whose attempt at the crossbar challenge didn't threaten to bring forward Jenny Graham's administrative responsibilities for season 2013/14. He does however win free entry to our next home League match v Chelmsford.

I'd be happy to upload that video (sorry, I've been mad busy and only just seen this) but if Nick doesn't want it made public then I won't

Thank you to everyone who contributed to the "Boost the Budget" collection today (and to Colin Payne who once again also manned a bucket) - £81.37 was raised this afternoon.
The winning ticket was pink 127 which was claimed by 10 yr old (?) Elliott McKimm who, in addition to winning free entry to the next home match v Staines was also the first person this season to succeed in the "crossbar challenge". Elliott's excellent shot struck the underside of the crossbar before bouncing down over the line!
Check out Elliott's technique ( superbly captured by Paul L's camera) in the next home programme. He wins a junior season ticket for next season!
Well done Elliott. Classy strike!

Thanks to everyone who contributed to the "Boost the Budget" buckets today. £78.22 was raised thanks to your generosity. Thanks once again to Colin Payne who assisted me with the collection.
Ticket 146 was claimed by Dave Loughlin whose attempt at the "crossbar challenge", whilst not threatening Jenny's season ticket writing responsibilities, did at least find the back of the net.
Dave wins free entry to our home match v Bath City on 17/11.

Col. Can you scrub Comic Relief off the bucket? After what happened yesterday it's too tempting for our old enemy fate.

The "Boost the Budget" bucket collections returned today. Thanks again to Colin for helping.
£66.96 was contributed at this afternoon's game - thank you very much for your generosity again.
Green ticket number 42 was claimed by Steve Wingrove who was at the game with colleagues from M&S Carpets today and whose attempt at the crossbar challenge just dipped below the target. He wins free entry to next Saturday's game v Bath.
A mention for the Ramsgate FC kitman, if I may, who contributed to the collection -he reckons the prize was better value than a mediocre bottle of wine he won at a recent away game! A real character.

The "Boost the Budget" bucket collection today yielded £54.85. Thank you to everyone for your contribution as always. It all really helps.
Ticket number 29 was pulled from the hat which belonged to Ryan Budd. His ebullient attempt at the "crossbar challenge" cleared the bar by some margin but, bearing in mind his footwear on a wet and heavy pitch, it was a miracle he stayed upright!
Ryan wins free entry to our next home match v Bromley on Boxing Day.
Thanks again everyone and to Colin Payne for helping once more.

£87.60 was collected in today's "Boost the Budget" bucket collection. Thank you to everyone who contributed for your support once again.
Yellow ticket 247 was today's lucky number which belonged to Jo Martin - a picture of her attempt at the "crossbar challenge" can be seen in next week's programme. Jo found the net with her attempt but sadly not via the crossbar. She wins free entry to next week's match v Truro (as does Ryan Budd who is yet to claim his prize following recent postponements).
Thanks again to everyone who contributed. Every bit helps.

Cheers AB. Jo says she will waive her right to free admission as her poor old dad pays for her to get in anyway. She says if she had been wearing football boots rather than Ugg boots she would have smacked it against the bar no problems. Keep up the good work.

£104.63 was collected in today's "Boost the Budget" bucket collection. Thank you to everyone who contributed today for your excellent support of this scheme.
Yellow ticket 283 was today's lucky number which belonged to Sarah Bleksley who wins free entry to our next home match v Welling United on Tuesday week. Sarah delegated the "crossbar challenge" to Paul Chalmers whose attempt at the GGL end of the ground just cleared the crossbar.
Thanks again to everyone who contributed today and to Colin for his help once more. It is much appreciated.
