Everyone needs a community, especially at times like these 15:57 - Apr 21 with 47352 viewsStokieBlue

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

Done - thanks to those of you who organised this, and cheers to Phil, Gav & Mark for making this happen - pretty much only thing that keeps me sane in these strange times (first website I check each morning, has been for years), love from Ontario x

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


Yes, we can work it out from Paypal info. Cheers.

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.


Many thanks.

I'll happily have my ads back Phil.

It's nice of you to make me ad free but they don't bother me in the slightest.

Likewise.

Plus I like looking at trainers I can't possibly afford.

I can't explain some of the other ads I get but hey ho.

I have still got ads although I think I put 'subscription' on my payment. I suppose that makes me very special.

But obviously not 'Ad subscription' otherwise ads would be all you would be getting, and we wouldn't be able to see your post.

Come to think of it, there are one or two posters who I would willing pay for them to have an ads only subscription...

Yeah, I want those pun threads all to myself.

I have thought on this a bit (to give you an indication of the type of poster I was really thinking of). They log on and hit the football threads only button, it gives them general threads only. But they read on and get incensed about perfectly reasonable viewpoints and decide to post a one line dismissive comment. At that point the site goes ads only for them...

I don't think we have, think there might just not have been any ads at that point.

Is it possible to set up a recurring subscription - I'm happy to just the £25 as a donation and pay a couple of quid a month from here on in, and sure others would be too.

I'll sort that. That sounds a plan, something we can sort once Gav's back in harness. Many thanks.

I don’t have ads Phil. I donated just under the annual ad free subscription charge so I could keep clicking on ads every day. I want my mature ladies that always say yes back.

I patiently wait for the day I get the Arab dating ad again. That contained one of the best looking women i've ever seen.

Need to enjoy these ads while we can before truly targeted ads come in.
