There is a possibility I might be helping out another non league team in the very near future. My season ticket at AVFC will not be renewed next season as I want to watch more grass roots football. It is played at 3 o clock most saturdays and much easier to organise in life's busy scedule

Have had a soft spot for Kiddie since I was a teenager when I worked with a guy in the lab of a large manufacturing company who played for them. He had been offered a number of contracts with league clubs but declined as he said he could earn more by having a full time job during the week supplemented by fees for appearances for Kiddie. Top scorer with 44 goals for them in one season in the '60s.

How times have changed.

At £14 - £17 quid per ticket is it as simple as all they need to do is attract an extra 10-11K supporters? Surely all of the local clubs who aren't at home can chip in a few thousand of their supporters?

I'm looking for something to do this Saturday - I think I just solved that.

Thank you for your support - it's really heart warming to have fellow football fans pull together. We are currently doing a facebook and twitter viral campaign to get 155,000 people to donate £1 or more. If you think you can help spread the word as well as donate that would be much appreciated.  We've had £3,500 donate since about 10pm last night (much of this from the last couple of hours)

Please donate at www.khist.org.uk (website now fixed)

Look forward to see a strong villa support at aggborough on Saturday and hope the other local clubs follow you lead.

Thank you again.

I've just filled in the online membership form and bunged them a few quid.

Good luck Laura.

Just thrown in a few quid, spent quite a few Saturdays down at Aggborough when I was younger.

Best of luck Laura.

I'm no expert, but I'd have thought that if they can find the money for the tax bill, then at least that gets the taxman and his winding up petition of their back.

Thank you  - I will certainly let you know how we get on. We are on BBC Radio 5 live with Gabby Logan at 13.15pm so hopefully that will raise the profile of the campaign further.

We're up to £4,200 online donations and £4,000 in cheques. A long way to go but the more publicity we are getting the quicker it's coming in.

Just a shame that clubs like Chelsea will spend what we need in 1 week on just one players wages.

Thanks again and speak to you later - hopefully with good news!

Laura
