dohadandy Posted August 5, 2017 Share Posted August 5, 2017 Guys, just a quick post to anyone that may have any old kids sized strips kicking about the house no longer being worn.I got a shout from the organisers of the Dnipro Kids charity and they are planning heading over again in October, so asked if i could send across some Dons tops.I went across last year again (first time since we played them 9 years earlier) and got some kit from the AFCCT lads, which was greatly appreciated when it got handed out. Unfortunately the poor boys and girls are made to wear only Hibs strips if I can't get any.Anyway, let me know on here and I am thinking I can get a collection point set up in town if possible, if there are enough to be dropped off.As long as they are in good condition, doesn't matter about numbers or names on the back, just in good nick.Please see the attached link to read about last years visit I had (October 2016 Parts 1,2 and 3) and also to see some of the older kids wearing the Dons tops I took over.http://dniprokids.com/news/ 5 Link to comment
dohadandy Posted August 5, 2017 Author Share Posted August 5, 2017 Pretty sure they would be delighted with anything to be fair. It's either that or a Hibs strip.... 1 Link to comment
1903Fitba Posted August 5, 2017 Share Posted August 5, 2017 No kids or strips sadly. Good cause so will donate appropriately. Top work. Link to comment
dohadandy Posted August 5, 2017 Author Share Posted August 5, 2017 Thanks very much 1903Fitba, it is a decent cause and well worth getting behind. Link to comment
RUL Posted August 6, 2017 Share Posted August 6, 2017 ....,And another thing.., the kind of fanny who -1'd me for that but +1'd the original post are the kind of sanctimonious wankers who boast about their fund raising exploits on Facebook ,instead of just doing it and shutting the fuck up about it. Wouldn't raise much if nobody knew you were fund raising. 1 Link to comment

RAZOR Posted August 6, 2017 Share Posted August 6, 2017 The Dnipro Kids ffs. We smashed them once 9 years ago. Couldn't give a fuck about them or their kids. Plenty of local kids homes in Aberdeen that would love their home town strip. 2 3 Link to comment
zander Posted August 6, 2017 Share Posted August 6, 2017 What happened to the shirts the fenian rat refunded when he left? Give them some of those. 2 Link to comment
dohadandy Posted August 6, 2017 Author Share Posted August 6, 2017 Sooper-hanz, I didn't realise that it mattered who actually started the charity does it? Surely the fact that people are trying to make lives of under privileged kids slightly better is a better shout than points scoring, obviously not in your head. As for being a sanctimonious wanker, thanks for that Guess thats better than just being a wanker. Razor, I agree, there are a lot of people in and around Aberdeen that would love strips too, and I would be just as happy to support that charity if there was indeed one to help them. I know for a fact that the AFCCT do a hell of a lot for local charities and under privileged kids in and around Aberdeen. Anyway, thanks for the replies lads. EDIT: PS, I am not on FB....... 1 Link to comment
vanderark14 Posted August 6, 2017 Share Posted August 6, 2017 Doha, I dont doubt your good work and wasn't a go at you personally . The Jack 22 comment was a light hearted joke.'Bants' if you will.My other comments with regards to SOME folk and their charity activities was definitely not aimed at you .Sometimes it's best just to say nothing. Fair play to the lad for the charity work he is doing. Link to comment
wee jock poo-pong mcplop1 Posted August 15, 2017 Share Posted August 15, 2017 Surprised to see Slater Sports in Buckie selling the new blue strip. I thought you could only get strips through the club shops and website. Link to comment

wee jock poo-pong mcplop1 Posted August 15, 2017 Share Posted August 15, 2017 Completely agree Elgin is the same but I'm seeing more Dons tops worn by youngsters. Alway thought that AFC should get the strips out there in the NE to hook the kids earlier, before they slip to the dark side. Link to comment

BWG Posted August 16, 2017 Share Posted August 16, 2017 I'll check my basement and see if I can find some. Good way to get rid of evidence. Link to comment
