They never miss an opportunity

Why should they?

[tim_noone]

Why should they?

Why would they ?

[KeighleyClaret]

My 2017 one still looks great, its been on my jacket all year.

You cant see the date unless you look closely.

[jtv]

Why would they ?

Wouldn't you?

The reason they date them...

[ClaretTony]

I think all the badges are dated and rightly so.

[burnleymik]

They look really nice, but the postage seems a bit excessive at 3.99. I'll just pick one up from the club shop.

[paulatky]

But instead of paying £1 a year ot will last a lifetime

I'd hope they aren't making a profit on these though.

[tim_noone]

Wouldn't you?

I go the traditional way buy a poppy off the poppy seller. Can't see what a football badge as got to do with Remembrance Sunday. And them lasting a lifetime 'quote'defeats the object of raising money to some degree.

I'd like to think most people who wear a poppy would donate every year regardless.
You could always keep the poppy you bought off a poppy seller for the following year if you are that tight

Or wear a badge that lasts 'quote'a lifetime ... I don't understand the Burnley Badge.

How much?

[ŽižkovClaret]

Suggested minimum donation is 30kc

[South West Claret.]

How much is that in £s.

[ŽižkovClaret]

just over a quid ten, pre-brexit vote was about 90p

Crumbs...including postage I assume

[ŽižkovClaret]

Nope, this is the "normal" poppy, i should clarify. This new "fashion item" poppy trend doesn't sit well tbh, especially not the blinged up diamante ones....

I'd like to think nobody felt compelled to donate to anything every year. Its a shame that freedom of choice has gone out of the window with Poppies, I personally don't usually buy one but choose to support other causes with less visible manifestations. It doesn't mean I don't appreciate or value the sacrifice of others, I just don't feel the need to outwardly celebrate making a donation.

I bought the BFC poppy last year in a moment of weakness though, and it does look good.

Nobody says you have to donate anything.

I personally wouldn't wear a poppy, or any other charitable token if I had not donated though.
Most people donate a couple of quid or something. You would have to be pretty tight to begrudge that

Picked one up from club shop this morning, nice badge.
