nice
good to see the appreciation for all he has done for the club
fantastic supporter of the year award - right there
Which he done under contract in exchange for money. He wanted out least season remember
they all do - some give more than others
Hope he’s not delivering them personally. It’ll be over before he gets there
Dozens. Well the generosity of that gesture just bowls me over
like Zlatans insult to Madrid. Some fund that raised what 100k.... big fuckin wow
half a weeks wage
they should stfu unless they’re going to do something worthwhile
half couldn’t spell philanthropic let alone offer any attempt to be it
Tbh, to see any rich celebs dig direct into their own pocket is refreshing....
Makes a nice change from using their name to just procure even more dosh from those that can less afford it and likely made them rich in the first place.

In terms of financial capacity comparing me and Toby it’s a bit like me donating the local hospital my old iPhone 4
it’s paltry
I take your point, but it's something.
Yeah he doesn’t have to do it.
"X donating £100k is like me donating 5p" has to be the dumbest argument I see.
City/United donated £100k to a local homeless shelter/food bank and the comments were "Is that it?"
Vertonghen was in the news saying people should be fined for not social distancing with the money going the NHS staff and the comments were all about how professional footballers are overpaid and should pay it themselves.
People are fucking idiots. If someone doesn't donate, nobody says anything, but if a footballer does donate, it's always slammed because it's not enough and they earn loads of money for kicking a ball. Weirdly few seem to take a similar attitude with singers, movie stars or other wealthy celebrities? Toby doesn't have to do anything, he's paid the market rate for his skill set but apparently being rich means he must donate hundreds of thousands to every crisis.

When he said "tablets", I thought he meant pills!!
Mrs P, is there something you'd like to tell the group?
Well done Toby
that I'm an old biddy and when someone says tablet, my initial understanding is that he is referring to medication!!
