I didn't really see the point of the Cobbler in the Crowd stuff initially but when I saw people talking about this being an opportunity to go to one last game with their lost friends and relatives it actually made me feel quite emotional. I still didn't want to do it personally though.
This time around, seeing as how the club are going to miss out on all those gate receipts, I reckon this is a good way to show our appreciation by putting some money into the club coffers.
We'd all have happily stumped up for a ticket, so this is really just the equivalent cost. I think it's the least we can do to say "thank you" for all the club have done for the community during the covid crisis and for last night's performance, which gave us all a sense of release after months of confinement, stress and boredom.
What do you think, boys and girls? Shall we all have a virtual day out together?
Definitely, my father passed away just before Xmas and was an ardent cobbler's fan and he's off to Wembley for 1 last hurrah.
