Having read about Ben, I see that the family are making a contribution to the Stratton Bank collection on Ben's behalf.

We have had a suggestion from one of the contributors to the Player Sponsorship fund that any surplus money gets donated to the Stratton Bank fund in Neville's name.  Perhaps we could contact Neville's family to let them know and get the Trust to mention it also?

I think it is a great idea, but am open to the thoughts of all that contributed.  I will mention it on the Player Sponsorship thread also.

It was done and when they realised what was going on the 1000 or so Bradford supporters joined in.  Some old boy near us thought it was a load of rubbish and shouldn't be allowed!!  RIP Dan.

They talked about him on the radio when the applause came around.

All done very well.  And respect to the Bradford City supporters joining in too.
