wee bit added after the original article was posted: "As part of the fixture we are pleased to confirm that a donation of gate receipts along with a can collection on the day of the match will be donated to the Gordon McFarlane Fund."
"Gordon suffered a massive stroke in July 2015 and has been in hospital ever since. His family and friends want him home, unfortunately the family home is unsuitable and major renovation work is required to support Gordon's return.
With your support we can make the necessary alterations to Gordon's home and fund the equipment and facilities that will support his recovery.
Friends and family have already given so much love and support to Gordon but we're asking for a bit more to get Gordon home where he can be in familiar surroundings to aid his ongoing recovery.
The home renovation work is in progress, but totalled with equipment and other costs we expect the final bill to be in the region of £30,000. This places a huge burden on the family and therefore any support you can offer is greatly appreciated.
Thank you
The McFarlane Family"

Good to see Rovers helping with this appeal, there has been , in some quarters, criticism of the gate prices but this puts it all into contect.
