Club 1872 Welcomes Macmillan Fundraiser John Burkhill to Ibrox

Dear member,

 

Club 1872 is delighted to confirm that John Burkhill, the Sheffield charity fundraiser for Macmillan Cancer Support will be a guest at Ibrox this Saturday, 12th August when Rangers take on Hibs in the opening home game of the season.

 

Thanks to the generosity of the Rangers support, Club 1872 has raised over £4,000 for Macmillan since being made aware of some issues that John had at our recent game with Sheffield Wednesday. A cheque will be presented to John at half time and he will be fundraising at the stadium prior to the game along with some Club 1872 volunteers.

 

If you see John around the stadium, wearing his green Macmillan wig and t-shirt along with his famous pram, then please give him a warm reception.

 

We would like to thank all the supporters who contributed to both the Club 1872 appeal and directly to John's own fundraising page. We hope John has a great day at Ibrox and look forward to welcoming him.

Superb effort to address what seems to have been an outrageous bit of stupidity by an unfortunate element of our support. I hope bears will continue to give generously on Saturday.

I hope nobody thinks a Hibs supporter has got lost.

 

Well done btw.

His colours are a shade unfortunate especially given who we're playing during his visit. Might be an idea to have some trustworthy members accompanying him.
