CHRISSY(LONDON REBEL) FUNDHi
As some will know, Chrissy (londonrebel) is struggling at present and the moderators kindly pinned her GoFundMe page to the top of this board. Thank you.
Chrissy was very much a regular at West Ham. Home and away. Many years. Regular on the Hornchurch coach and loved by many. Would always help you out if she could and some of the older ones on here know her as well as I do, if not more so. She moved to the States and started some great work for a dog charity. However, was then hit by some very bad health news and a lack of insurance coverage thereafter. As explained in full, on her GoFundMe page. I urge everyone to read, even if not contributing but if you can, I can assure you, every little DOES make a difference. Moncurs Putting Iron and others have already contributed from this forum.
Thank you very much indeed.
We had a successful mini-auction on here for a framed Sir Trev shirt recently for Dennis, God bless him, It went very well and we handed the winning bid money to Dennis' wife Jackie. In a similar fashion, if I may, I would like to try and do the same for Chrissy.
The item is a framed Paolo Di Canio shirt. 100% genuine. From the Stevie Bacon fundraiser way back in the day at Dagenham and Redbridge. A few of the Boys of 86 were doing it. Frankie Mac, Galey, Devo (I think) Cottee? Some will no doubt remind me but it is a genuine item, as handed out by the Boys of 86 on the night. My mate Andy Mansell bid too much for it (the power of alcohol and a table full of mates) and he had it reframed thereafter. The frame is robust, decent and undamaged, as it the item and glass covering. The outside of the frame is three foot square. You can see the pictures for yourselves, nothing hidden, feel free to WHOmail me or add any questions to this thread at any time.
From here on in I will check this thread and my messages daily until the close of bidding. Which will be Sunday 28th March at 6pm.
I am happy to deliver anywhere in Essex, E/SE/NE London, most of Kent and Suffolk I guess. Collection thereafter.
Winning bid money will all be added into Chrissys GoFundMe page for transparency.
Thanks for your time.

If you don't mind ladies and gents, I want to put Chrissys 'gofundme' page on here. Chrissy used to be on here quite a lot as londonrebel. Many will know her from the Hornchurch coach or seeing her over West Ham a lot generally, over many years. Those that know her will testify she would always try to help anybody and she has/had many friends west Ham related.
She has had a very rough time since she moved across the pond. I urge you to read through the gofundme page from top to bottom.
Those that can afford to assist in any way, it would truly be appreciated as you can probably imagine, once you read the page.
