Donate the Cost of a Ticket for Lewis's Testimonial

[Scouse Hibee]

Following on from my post on the thread about Lewis’s testimonial and not being able to attend due to holidays. I said at the time I would like to buy a couple of tickets and make sure someone who would not otherwise be able to attend due to finances etc could do so with my donated tickets.
I asked our Guru of organisation in such things, Susan (FranckSuzy) to help ensure my tickets and those of others who wish to donate went to people in need of them.
Susan has very kindly agreed to assist in facilitating to do this and we have decided that the best and easiest way to this is to donate the cost of a ticket(s) via the leith links pay pal account and Susan will then purchase the tickets accordingly and see they go to worthy causes.

If you wish to donate please use the PayPal account leithlinks@live.co.uk

I have started the ball rolling by donating £40.00, the cost of 2 adult tickets.

Cheers SH

Don't like watching friendlies or testimonials far less when my teams not playing but love the idea of getting someone to a game who maybe couldn't otherwise go
As a person I think Lewis deserves his testimonial always comes across as a decent bloke playing for the wrong team

One current player and two Hearts supporters have just been in touch to say they'll be donating the cost of tickets. What a great gesture that is.

Should add that I asked the Hibs player if he wanted to make it public and, admirably, he said it wasn't about him and that he'd prefer to do it anonymously.

Yes well done the Jambos for doing this, but why slag off Hibs fans too , I just don't get it , how do you know hom many will pay at the gate , how do you know other Hibs fans finances. I just don't understand why every thread somehow gets a dig at Hibs at some point. Not looking for a argument just a observation.
