to think this is cheeky?

[sockatoe]

I tire of middle class parents who live in middle class areas and send their middle class children to middle class football teams sending me fundraising requests to help buy their football strips. I get that this is possibly quite expensive, but so are other hobbies, that other children (including my own) have.
I only have limited money. I love to support charities where I can, they make such a huge difference to people in need, the environment, research and so forth. But as for Chelsea and Ruben's football kits, if you want them to have it, put your Prosecco down and put your hand into your Radley handbag and pull some money out yourself.
Am I in the minority here?

Since when was Chelsea a middle-class name or are you referring to the football team?

Never been asked for sponsorship.

It's like crowd funding.. Some of the reasons for the begging are cheeky fucker in its finest

Well am not impressed with scouts in that case, have a jamboree here! Much cheaper, I get that it's lovely to meet scouts from around the world but it is a ridiculous and unnecessary expense to expect the public to assist with. Fund from within if you have to, within your social circle but not from the public.
