Sarumite 86 Posted September 4, 2014 Share Posted September 4, 2014 Welcome to the official launch of the oneBORO Shirt Sponsorship Competition. This is the 3rd year that we have run this competition, in previous years we have successfully raised enough funds to sponsor Adam Reach (Away Shirt) and Dean Whitehead (Home Shirt), this season again we have the aim of sponsoring a Home Shirt. We have a poll to pick who we sponsor, only entrants have a vote in this poll. The 7 options are the Home Shirts available for sponsor for this season. To achieve this we need to have 88 entrants to the competition, although multiple entries are more than welcome. To enter this competition you just need to donate £10 to the running costs of the oneBORO forum. Each £10 donation gives you one ticket to the magic draw. After making your donation please PM either SouthernSmog or oneBoro accounts with the email address used when making the donation. The prize as has been for the past 2 seasons is as follows: The framed signed shirt of the player that we sponsor. You will be presented this at an exclusive Middlesbrough FC event where you will mingle with players and the coaching staff. You will have the chance to collect autographs, chat with players and staff. You will receive 2 places at this event. If we achieve the magic 88, there will also be a 2nd prize of an invitation for 2 to accompany the winner to this exclusive event.

boksicdink 1,937 Posted September 4, 2014 Share Posted September 4, 2014 Have the rest of the players already gone?! Im in either way for two pledges - thanks for organising this again! Link to post Share on other sites
Sarumite 86 Posted September 4, 2014 Author Share Posted September 4, 2014 It seems that way - the club emailed us the list of shirts available to sponsor for the coming season. We did make a request a while ago. Good to see you in Boksicdink! For those not sure where the donate button is - go to the bottom of any page on the desktop version of the site and there is a yellow donate button. Link to post Share on other sites

MRe 352 Posted September 4, 2014 Share Posted September 4, 2014 Why are the running costs so high, wow :o Link to post Share on other sites
Sarumite 86 Posted September 4, 2014 Author Share Posted September 4, 2014 Why.. the running cost of a site is directly related to its popularity - the more people who come the more it costs. The reason for needing have 88 entries to achieve sponsorship of a shirt is because we have to pay to sponsor a shirt. Its incredibility complicated to run a competition where you pay to enter - its basically a lottery and for that you need a licence. However making a donation to the running costs, giving you a place in a draw doesn't. Why are the running costs so high, wow :o If you have further questions, PM me and I will explain in detail.
