The Palace result killed the donations stone dead.

The 'well wishers' could have set their own charity fund up of course but that would have taken them 5 or 10 minutes so none of them have bothered.

Why do people need to set a charity fund up, think people said it would be a better way to spend the money collected for a plane.

On how many other occasions has this type of stunt been pulled?

Only one I am aware of is Millwall sending a plane to Blackburn/burnley when West Ham were relegated there. Banner said 'Avram Grant. Millwall legend'.

Millwall were not about to be relegated at the time.

So, it is clubs of the 'calibre' of Millwall and Blackpool who have done this type of thing previously. Esteemed company indeed:oops:

And presumably neither was threatened with their own relegation catastrophe at the time of the event either.

Says it all really.
 
I'm assuming the mags are at home last game of the season with us being away.

Can we not wait to see if we are safe then and fly it over that game?

Every single person I have spoke to has said it's embarrassing. Still time to keep our dignity and cancel it. It's totally lost its momentum just admit it.

Who should decide to cancel it though? It has lost momentum but the required amount has already been reached by people who want it to happen, how do you propose to give them their money back?

Each to their own mate. I disagree with what you are doing but its a free country and everyone is free to behave like a dick and bring shame on their fellow fans if that's what they want to do. I would have thought that getting behind our own team and trying to help us stay up would be a far bigger priority, but if you want to once and for all prove that we are more obsessed about them than they are about us then go ahead with this.

I would ask, how much have you put towards this stunt and have you bought a ticket for the Stoke away match? Oh and which of these two events is more important to you?

I will not be donating and I register my disagreement but I will be at Stoke supporting our team.

You are as deluded as them daft fuckers man. I've not put owt into the fund, my point is, if a group of lads want to do something, let them fuckin do it! I,ll pay for a plane just for you that says tinpot black alley or whatever the fuck ya call yaself doesn't agree with it. Then you will be free to wander around ryton without shitting yaself.

There should be records of each PayPal transaction easy enough to send those funds back.
Not sure how the gofxndme contributors get their donations back though as never used that site.
