Ok, trying to do a wee audit here.

Saints' Exiles have sponsored today's matchball, captain's armband and contributed to the match day programme (for a reprint of the text, see below).

MATCH BALL DRAW
Tickets means how many times your name will go into the draw to keep the match ball. 20-25 = 1 ticket, and then I've roughly pro-rata'd that up for those who contributed more.
 I will get all the names into Excel and run the RAND() function to pick a winner. I'll film it live on Twitter, this week. 


PROGRAMMES
Anyone who wants a programme should PM/Send their name/address to me. I have requested 10 from @The ghost of Jim Morton -

I will use the outstanding £5.00 (have paid Ghostie £500 by cheque) for the postage cost to get him to send down the Programmes. If you want a programme I will send them out, at my cost to you.

REPRINT OF THE MATCH DAY PROGRAMME MESSAGE
 

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The Saints’ Exiles Club – the diaspora of fans outside Scotland - are proud to sponsor today’s match ball, and wish to congratulate Chris on his well-deserved Testimonial match.

The Exiles were founded by Seaman Captain John Marnoch when around fifteen Saintees met up to watch St Johnstone in a cup match from the Sports Cafe pub in London sometime in the mid-2000s.

Today’s captain’s armband is sponsored in recognition of John “Captain Marnoch” who recently passed away. He is responsible for the Exiles’ POTY efforts over the past few years and is fondly remembered as the only person to receive TWO bans from WAP forum!

Contributions for today’s sponsorship came from as far afield as arctic Northern Canada, Australia, and the Falkland Isles.

THANKS

 

Well done @sixties saintee for being the one who actually got all this going, and made it happen. As always, huge thanks to @The ghost of Jim Morton 


@The Inspiration enjoy your day, god bless @AthensSaint @PanamaSaint @SingaporeSaint and any other astroturf accounts - we miss them all  :)

 

MON THE SAINTS!

I have tha ball, signed by midge and firmly in my possession. Also signed programmes.   The captains armband is also secured but it needs to go out to be embroidered with some extra bits and pieces.. I hope to have it back before I go on holiday and when I get it I will post photo of it.. I thought the tribute to John and the write up about the exiles in the programme was excellent. On behalf of Chris, the testimonial committee and myself I would just like to take this opportunity to thank everyone who  made this possible..

At the end of the match Chris Millar had the match ball so hopefully Chris will have done or do a presentation  of said ball as a fitting tribute to John and the type of guy Chris is.

The kit man actually  took the ball but my man was on the touchline under strict instructions to nab it as soon as he could..  he never let me down...
