Walk with Shay 1

Incredible pieces of Celtic History that you could win

As you may already know, we have 2 Celtic tops (1 home and 1 away) signed by the last 11 Club Captains of Celtic Football Club spanning the past 53 years of our unbroken history, from Billy to Broony. These items have been professionally designed and framed, containing all the players’ relevant stats. These truly are two of a kind and are a once in a lifetime opportunity to be the proud owner of.  The signing of the tops took us around 18 months to achieve and the journey and story behind this was amazing. We plan to share this story with you over the coming weeks.

We are also delighted to announce that the money raised from the Captains tops (and other special prizes) will not only support Shay but also the wonderful work of the Celtic FC Foundation.

This is our plan

The WalkWithShay Campaign is now fully registered with the Licensing Board to run lotteries (raffles); and we are planning to hold our 1st raffle where the First Prize will be the Away Club Captains top, together with many other great Celtic related prizes.  The draw date for this raffle will be 25th May 2017 (no need to remind you of the significance of that date). We need help to sell our raffle tickets for £5 each and spread awareness before then. Yes, that’s right, you could win the Away top for just £5!!!! The Home top will be raffled/auctioned or sold at a later date.

This is where we need your help…

We’re looking for

67 Supporters Clubs / Groups / Associations / Online Communities/Businesses/Establishments or super Individuals to each sell up to 50 (Lisboa) tickets @£5 each

This will form our Green Battalion

and

67 individuals to sell up to 10 (IAR) tickets @ £5 each

This will form our White Battalion

You are of course all welcome to sell more or indeed a smaller quantity of tickets, if you so desire. Regardless of what you sell (or buy) we really appreciate your support.

We would like to have all our sellers registered before Monday 3rd April, which is when we plan to go live with the sale of our raffle tickets. There is a bit of work here to ensure we comply with our license, so please contact us now.

Please help us recruit by sharing our story with your family, friends and colleagues.

  1. Awful news in Derry tonight

     

     

    Watched him play his usual 110% yday against drogheda .. watched him last Monday against dundalk .. watched him since he was young teenager breaking into derry team and I’ve never watched seen him give less than a 110%.

     

     

    Literally lives metres away from the brandywell stadium .. also works in one of the best local bars in town.

     

     

    The city and country is worse off tonight. God bless ryan and his family.

    Congrats to JJHS. And thanks to jobo and CRC for organizing. Much appreciated.

     

     

    I would be happy to represent Cowiebhoy in any dispute should one arise. I will even give him my ‘family and friend’ rate – which is twice my normal rate (you have to know my family and friends)

    That has to be a fake article Shirley?

     

    No decent publication would have a headline

     

    Has went bust

  4. Many thanks to Jobo and CRC

     

    It brings me a lot of pleasure and I’m sure to many more of us.

     

    I know it’s a lot of work and I’m sure everyone is grateful for the effort you guys put in organizing and chasing the laggards and forgetful oul yins, like myself.

     

    As for the winner, a jammy so and so. ;-))

    Searingly honest post earlier.

     

     

    I want to wish you well in your battle with alcoholism.

     

     

    Two uncles and one aunt in my family are fully recovered alcholics.

     

    When growing up, alcohol abuse was a feature in my own family too. I know firsthand the havoc it can cause .

     

    Hope you have enough support and never give up

    Utterly stunned tonight.

     

    Was up the town for a swally and heard that a young friend of mine Derry City captain Ryan McBride was found dead in his bed.Ryan worked with us for a while down the docks and a nicer lad you never would have met.

     

    He had the opportunity to have went to England or even to Dundalk.

     

    He declined.Very much a homebird.

     

    I really am staggered.

     

    RIP Ryan.A lovely,lovely boy.

  7. Final day fixtures are the weekend of 20/21 May.
