Wednesday, 4th Jun 2014ex-pat Dunfermline Athletic supporter Richard Emslie has offered to coordinate this season's Sponsor a Season Ticket initiative.
Big-hearted Pars fans have expressed an interest in helping others to follow the team and ex-pat Dunfermline Athletic supporter Richard Emslie has offered to coordinate this season's Sponsor a Season Ticket initiative.
DAFC Season Tickets are now on sale for the 2014-15 season |
Richard has already written to various ex-pat Pars fans and far-flung fans in the UK, including those who supported the original Sponsor a Season Ticket initiative when it was first created two years ago on the popular fans' website dafc.net, and he has published an open letter via Pars United | 1885 Worldwide: http://www.pars-united.com/1885/sponsor-a-season-ticket-201415/
Richard is now based in South Africa and has supported the Pars from age 5. Along with hundreds of others, Richard contributed to Buy the Pars and he is delighted with community-ownership and with the commitment the new DAFC Board has shown to include all Dunfermline Athletic fans in the community no matter how far away they live. He said:
"I know our Board support those of us involved with 1885 Worldwide and our intention is to ensure that Pars fans all over the world share in the feel good factor currently being enjoyed by those who live close enough to attend East End Park every week.
"I want to help a local Pars fan to follow the team and get as many supporters as possible along to games," Richard continued, "and I hope other fans will join me in sponsoring a 2014/15 season ticket."
"Pars United and 1885 Worldwide will be working with the Club and the local community to ensure that all our sponsored tickets are used to best effect and if anyone wants to gift a ticket to a specific person, perhaps a friend or family member, that's fine too, as it's possible to nominate your own choice of recipient."
Two seasons ago Pars fans mostly sponsored tickets for Under-18 or OAP supporters, who themselves may not be in a position otherwise to attend East End Park.
