I used your commentary for two games now. Must say fantastic work. Am sure your friend is very proud of what your doing.
Keep up the good work and thank you!

Pledged a tenner and more than happy to do so. I live too far away to get to games so your updates let me feel like I still follow the Flyers, great work Stirling.

Morning all,
Just a quick note to say thanks again for all the positive feedback and also to those who have so generously pledged a contribution towards a season ticket. I've found it all very humbling and a little overwhelming.
Big thanks also to @sparkymark who set up the crowdfunding page. We've been in touch and he's kindly agreed to my request that rather than funding a season ticket, all money raised will go to Cancer Research UK, in memory of my old hockey mate Sam as well as all other Flyers fans and their loved ones who have been lost to this awful disease. I hope all of you who have pledged so far are OK with this.
Just to make things interesting, I've made a pledge to match all funds raised so far - so we're at £100 already! Any contributions, regardless of amount, would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks again for the appreciation and support.
Cheers, Stirlingflyer

Good to see the online community here taking this on. Fantastic idea (and really one that the flyers organisation should have had a while ago)
+donated (even if Stirlingflyers is a Bruins fan....booo bruins)

Thanks Stirling for the updates, although I am a season ticket holder, I have missed most games this season due to ill health and these updates have been a lifeline, even if sometimes not good for the blood pressure, but I would not shoot the messenger.
Have pledged as a token of my appreciation for all that you do.
What a true gent to donate the money raised to Cancer Research, a charity close to my own heart.
Thanks so much for all you do for those who cannot get to games, for whatever reason and long may you continue.
Stay healthy, live long & prosper.

Just added £10 to the fund SF and well done for converting it into a very worthwhile charity donation mate.
