Andy Theaker has been randomly drawn out as the winner of our Crowdfunding campaign which was in place throughout February.
The Crowdfunding campaign was launched ahead of the Iron’s first signing under new ownership, which ended up being Nottingham Forest loanee Billy Fewster, with the player spending the entirety of February sponsored by the 12th Man.
Following the 19-year-old's return to Forest, United will be contacting Andy to offer an alternative vacant player to sponsor.
A total of £3915 was pledged to the club throughout the campaign which, following deductions due to tax and platform fees, saw just under £3500 raised.
The funds raised have contributed to improved equipment and facilities to the first team environment, with an order placed for new equipment in the gym which will further enhance what players are able to do on-site.
Supporters had the opportunity to maximise their chances of winning, with £5 giving one entry, while £10 gave three entries, £20 gave seven chances and £30 entering the pledger’s name on ten occasions.
In total, the Iron had 274 pledgers in the campaign, with a total of 1245 entries created for the draw. The draw took place on a random wheel generator, with one of Andy Theaker’s ten chances coming out as the winner.
