Well done chap but I guess it's similar to be putting a fiver in the bucket.

Good work Randy, good timing as well with the recent piece in the fanzine about some foreigner owners.

I still think he cares about a great many things even if it isn't always obvious. This is a superb gesture. Well done Randy.

It's great news. Frankly if Randy has got more money to spend/give away, I'd rather he gave it to Acorns than PL.

Thank you Mr Lerner - so many families across the Midlands will be eternally grateful for your gesture... football is so trivial when compared to the to the life of a child - it would be nice to think that some of his employees are equally as generous.

Lovely gesture from Mr Lerner. He doesn't have to do this but he does and he should be shown massive respect for this.

For a parent to outlive one or more of their children is probably number one in the top ten of awful things that can happen to someone. Anything that can be done to help families with children who have life limiting conditions [anyone with an ounce of common sense knows what that means] should be applauded. I'm all for having a laugh, but to knock this gesture, and make comments about the money should have been spent on players etc, shows a lack of emotional intelligence imo.
