Happy to announce the club agrees and have asked to get the word out. Next home game v @AVFCOfficial next Saturday one minute of applause. I shall not be sitting. Comedians do like a standing ovation. And hopefully @RomeluLukaku9 will score in the 59th.
Anyone care to r/t for me please, because I will likely be affected by my ST seat not being ready on Saturday. Iโve never asked favours in 51 years & never expected any. Iโm asking now. Obviously if my seat was ok tkts request gets passed to next person in need.
