TWTD is a fabulous place. Sure we can all argue and disagree but at the end of the day we are community, brought together by a love of ITFC and given the platform to be a community by the hard and tireless work of those at TWTD towers.
Times are strange indeed. I don't think anyone really knows what the next 6 to 12 months are going to hold but I am sure that we can all agree that this place is a rock, a solid place in many of our lives where we can return at any point for a sense of normality.
Times are also tough at TWTD towers with the powers that be essentially working for free at the moment. A few posters have had a discussion to see if there is anything we can do to show our appreciation for the all their hard work over the years, work that means we have this site which is invaluable to many at the moment.
Given this, a proposal has been formed, one that presents no pressure as we understand times are difficult for many. The idea is to allow people to either purchase a yearly subscription to TWTD for 24 GBP which would mean that the user sees no adverts, or for people to anonymously donate any amount they feel they can afford to an appreciation fund which will be used to help with the running of the site. No amount is too small and there is no pressure. Everyone has different circumstances and nobody should feel obliged to give anything.
For those that wish to pledge something they can send their donation or subscription request to the PayPal account below. If you are purchasing a subscription then please state that with your payment as that needs to be processed by the admin.
Once again, this is a purely voluntary proposal so nobody should feel they are in any way obliged.
Everyone take care in these testing times and a final thanks to jeera for starting the ball rolling on this and making sure it got to this stage.

I should have put more instructions:
1. Log into PayPal
2. Select "Send"
3. Enter the recipient as paypal@twtd.co.uk
4. Enter the amount
5. Enter any information
6. Click continue
7. Click send

Now that he runs the show I think it will probably be TWTDKieron.
I see that you use the Skye spelling of his name. |
Yes, either that or I always get things wrong when I am trying to be clever...
[edit] I've yet to come across a Kieron on Skye but I reckon the Scots Gaelic would follow the Irish on this occasion and spell it Ciarán. [Post edited 23 Apr 2020 8:28]

You're only offering so that you can change your username to DanTWTD, aren't you?
Meanwhile we wait with bated breath for the appearance of KeironTWTD. |
Of course.
And also I hear donating means you finally get the free Audi. |  |

Unless you’re so late to the party and all the Audi’s are taken, in which case you get hobnobs. |  |

There is so much wrong with your post Hoppy. |
Only if you have that kind of mind... 
I’m disappointed in you, and whatever jeera said pre-edit, I have to say. | |

What an amazing idea. Of course I will donate. I know it has been suggested before about paying to use this forum but this is the first time we have been given somewhere to pay in order to appreciate all the work that our 'leaders' do. Well done SB and Jeera.
Thanks Phil and Gav. Where would we be without you?  |  | | |

Also if any technical help is needed, let me know. [Post edited 23 Apr 2020 7:15]

Thanks Dan, on both fronts. The hamster has been furloughed, however.

Surely there's someone on here who could sell you an unbreakable padlock for your hoard of Hobnobs cupboard at a reasonable price, say £15.99? 🤔 |

apart from ads, do subscribers get any other advantages? |
Not really. I was trying to think of additional stuff we could do but drew a bit of a blank. | | | |

Naked Friday?
Gav could pop round once a week to cook breakfast, preferably not Friday
Redo the Bobby Robson Footie poster with Paul Lambert and keep sending them to Fishy?
Seriously what about a link with Blueaction to do a merchandise deal? |  |

I offered to buy the big LAMBO banner from whomever has it but they didn't respond. I was looking forward to making a minor alteration and then displaying it again in the North Stand |  |

Probably a lot further on in our careers, hobbies and social lives given the amount of time some of us have spent on here!  |  |

Done, many thanks to Phil and Gav.
Surprised no one has asked the burning question whether MarkTWTD is furloughed or is eating all Gav's hobnobs and driving his Audi. |
Thanks for asking... and yep, I'm still around keeping an eye on the servers etc. Alas, no hobnobs... I think Gav cleared all the shops out when he went panic buying last month. |  | | |

In these trying times, I think it would cheer everyone up if you gave yourself an avatar to go with your account. I think we would all like to put a face to the name so to speak! |  |

Done, albeit I do not contribute with many posts - I often read through the comments and content and feel like I know the community.
I too spend a lot of time on the site, and it certainly helps in these troubled times.
Cheers for all that you do. |  | | |

just seen this so donated the £24 plus a extra £1 for hobnobs.
just one question which may sound daft, how do you know who has donated. do paypal tell you the name and email of the person who has donated and you can match them up with their username |  |
