Palmer throws open the gates

Postby Agostinho Fri Jan 14, 2011 12:14 pm

The Gold Coast v Newcastle match next week (22nd) will be free to all supporters on the proviso that a donation (however big or small) be made to the flood appeal.

Fantastic gesture. I'd love to see other clubs (in any sport actually) do similar.

Well done Mr Palmer.

Nice one.

I also heard he was letting the rescue teams use his chopper to rescue stranded people. Well in.

Fair play Clive, that's a nice move.

Yeh i haven't agreed with a lot of the things he has done in terms of running the Gold Coast franchise but he seems to be getting his act together and this is a fantastic initiative

tbh he is a pretty nice guy, focused on building a soccer club, quite dedicated.

Also the pic looks like he will be having the ball for dinner.

I think clive and the football world got off on the wrong foot.
