And another. Let's keep this near the top. Good opportunity for us all to give something back to encourage a man who work hard for us and the club.
Now how do I post a link to the Exeter Chiefs site!!

Come on all you Sarries- Lets give Edward something back for all the hard work he has put into the club.
Will he be running in the Sarrie the Camel outfit?

Maybe we could have the 'fat lady'singing as Edward approaches the finishing line.
Surely we can get this to 10% by the end of the day. It will only take 27 more people to donate £10. The price of a small round of drinks (if you're lucky!!) Come on - get the credit cards out.
I suppose he's got loads of spare time, in which to train, now he's achieved his goal!!!
Lets keep this at the top of the board until the target is reached and beyond. Edward deserves our support.
Keep going we are 9% of his target already. EG deserves our support - Keep it going
I think its significant its this years marathon - cos now he's got a track to train on -and one indoors in case its wet.
S'up to the top for Edward.
Any word from the man himself about the sponsorship?
In fact, has anyone seen him since the 'out of this world' success of the Exeter game?

I'm sure he'll be around for the Welsh game, so we can chase after him then.
But if his training has been any good, then he should be able to get away!

He is running up and down the indoor running track stacking the shelves with pies and beer for ther weekend.
Back to the top he goes.

I hear the press caught sight of Edward through a long lenses into Allianz Park earlier tonight...
Well on the way towards his first £1000
Only £15.00 to go
Come on Sarries lets push on

To all the above,
Thank you very much for your generosity, and support of the Saracens Sport Foundation... changing around 70,000 lives through sport per annum for 12 years now.
Thank you,

I am sure you will reach the target and we will keep the post at the top to remind everybody. All in a very good cause!!!
Not the longest or shortest thread title, but possibly the most important to support.
Bump to the top again then...

For people less ignorant than me:
If I'm not a UK taxpayer, can I just put that I am in order to get the gift aid contribution? Or is there something wrong with that?

Gift Aid effectively transfers the tax you pay on your income to the charity - if you gift aid £80, the charity claims £20 from HMRC.
If you are not a taxpayer, then you haven't got the tax to fund that. HMRC would be entitled to claim the tax from you.
The form asks you to confirm you are a taxpayer. Generally, it's best in life to be honest. Otherwise we'd all be convinced the salary cap was being broken ...

EG seems to be slipping down the list a bit so thought I'd try to get him nearer the top again. Come of folks - let's support EG - he's done so much for Sarries and our 'new home' he derserves all the support we can give him for a brilliant cause.
Only saw Ed at a distance today, so no chance to gauge his running speed!
Edward is slipping down the list again! Come on guys - we can surely get him over the £1000 mark!! How about a bit of 'gentle persuasion'? If Edward ditches the Fat Lady (but maybe keeps the singer) we'll sponsor him in the Marathon. If everyone who thinks the Fat Lady should go were to sponsor a small amount, I can see him making his target in double-quick time!
Ours done - it is a really great cause - and I'd need to catch a bus to go that sort of distance! Good on Edward for putting in the effort - rather him than me!

38 donars have made the total £920
Only £80 to the first £1000
Maybe the "Fat Lady" could dip in her purse to make up the first £1000

Had a quick chat with EG on Sunday, I mentioned there was a link on this site to his JG page and he passed on a "very big thanks" to all those that have sponsored him.

Well really, Edward - I turn my back for a few hours and look what happens! Now just go back up to the top please.
I am not sure what qualifies as a 'STICKY' but could this particular thread?

I thought that running up and down the board was part of EdG's training?

Wow, exciting a thread turning into a sticky front page. There's probably a joke in there...
But fantastic that Edward's attracting plenty of sponsorship. But more please!
Running man in the 'allez les noirs...et rouges ' colours!

How about someone from The Tulip Club come in on this and lays the full amount? Seems like there's a fair amount of cash to splash around in that particular part of the club!

Just to remind everyone about this (not sure if this becomes "New" or what but it will create a new post).
If you haven't yet donated, please do so as I know every penny will be very much appreciated!

Good luck Ed. Restore the weekend by making as good a Sunday as the Saturday defeat has been disappointing!
All,
Thank you for the support.
Together with Gordon Banks, stadium director, and Jon Hall, finance director, we raised more than £7,000 for the Foundation, which makes the mild aches worthwhile.
I wore a Fez all the way around, and was pleased that twice as many people shouted 'Go Saracens' as those that performed an impersonation of Tommy Cooper.
Two started singing 'Stand Up for the Saracens.
Again, thank you for your enthusiastic support.

Great work Edward, well done. That's a great sum to raise for the Sport Foundation.
