I also hear the EK manager donated a generous amount too 👏👏
Can we please ensure this money is put to good use asap as it will help deter future attempts and it will show every contributor that the Rovers donations are worthwhile and have an impact.
It would be great to see the Mens Shed get involved in helping with new security barriers etc (barbed wire around perimeter walls etc.). A great project for them.
This project should give us real optimism for the future.
There are thousands of people who want Albion Rovers to succeed.
I tip my hat to all involved.

. There are thousands of people who want Albion Rovers to succeed. Be great if some of these thousands actually turned up to watch them play occasionally. |

To add to the fundraising activities already under way via the Just Giving page, the Supporters Trust have also made a £1,500 donation to the club to assist with the costs associated with the mindless vandalism carried out the other day.
We know that the reprehensible acts have had a disheartening and angering impact upon the many fans, volunteers and club officials that hold Albion Rovers close to their hearts.
Hopefully, the demonstration of collaboration, togetherness and pooling of resources shown over the last day or two helps, in some way to restore the collective faith that we can overcome these callous, vengeful and feral individuals who try to destroy much of what so many of us hold dear.

The Board have requested the funds be transferred to the Club account and I will facilitate this ASAP.
I’ve asked the Board to share with us exactly how these funds will be used and look forward to hearing how the almost £3,000 will enhance security and safety at Cliftonhill next season and beyond.
A friend of mine had offered to install a brand new state-of-the-art CCTV system (HD cameras and new recorder) for £640. Labour costs and mark-ups were removed. I’m sure the Board will take him up on this.
Thanks to everyone who pledged to the page.
Jordan.

Excellent stuff. Perhaps they could even upgrade to the laser guided missile option!

A great response to this with almost £3000 being raised. I’m sure the board will use the money appropriately when they receive it to repair the damage done by the recent acts of vandalism at Cliftonhill.
It is also heartwarming to hear that there were other donations outwith the Just Giving page and several offers of practical help also.
