It would be great if a version of this release could be printed in the Palace program thanking them for all their help and also,highlighting the benefits to groups in their area.
Proud to have raised a bit of that terrific total, and had a couple of fantastic moments in return.

And then the MASSIVE honour of getting to play at the Amex in this one. Thanks for the opportunities, to all who made it happen

a Leftie. Nice pen, better than Kanes against France.

Just to echo the thanks for the incredible work the committee has done over these 22 years. Thanks to everyone who contributed, Palace and Albion alike. I attended all but two of the matches, had an excellent time for a fantastic cause.
As one of your fellow players in REMF 1 I totally agree. Let's all try and make it (I realise I said this last year and family matters got in the way, but this year it is special)

Agree 100% I'm surprised Tim hasn't hijacked this thread mentioning his goals.
It would be great to get a reunion for all that played in the first game and as you say have a great turnout for the last one

Would a commemorative book be appropriate to draw a final line under this fantastic charity that has touched the lives of so many people?
Absolutely incredible from all involved. I was in NYC on 9/11 but fate was kinder to me as I was at a meeting in Midtown in the morning, with a planned meeting at WTC (7) in the afternoon. Been back many times since and always have to visit the memorial - it has been highly emotional watching the area change over the years and the visits are always difficult. Hope the family are suitably proud of his legacy and gain some comfort from the fantastic work done in his memory.

Well done all.
The cycle ride from Selhurst to the Amex in 2013 will live long in the memory. I remember cycling down alongside the Five Year Plan boys from Palace and @Motogull @Bold Seagull and @Pogue Mahone. Also remember having to encourage a somewhat I’ll prepared @Uncle Spielberg who, hats off, made it all the way.
Motogull was somewhat disappointed that I didn’t look like Eric Morecambe.
Amazing legacy for REMF. I’m in awe of the organizers. Chapeau.

The REMF has been wonderful.
You have belittled our cycle a little, Hamilton - it was Amex to Selhurst and back to the Amex! Great memories.
I also visited the 9/11 Memorial and found Robert’s name, which was incredibly emotional.

There is so much to be proud of our club, including our supporters.
NSC and REMF are shining examples of exactly the sort of club we are.
Well done everyone who played their part.

From an Eagle, many congratulations on a wonderful job done and a fabulous achievement over so many years. Everyone concerned with raising so much money for such worthwhile causes can be very proud of themselves. Personally I will miss it and the chance to share a pint and a chat with so many decent likeminded Brighton fans. It is great that much respected foe Ricky Marlowe and Peter Ward have supported it throughout. I look forward to coming down one more time to raise a glass to the memory of Robert Eaton.
I am honoured to hacve been involved since 2001. It has done so much good in the World. Let's make the last game a sell out !

An amazing charity that has brought so much light to so many from a place of darkness.
Well done to everyone involved, you should all be so proud of yourselves, achieving such a staggering amount and helping so many.
Also a massive amount of respect to the Palace contingent who have also played an important part of the fundraising, and proves football is not just tribalistic but also about community and a shared love of the game and our fellow supporters.
Hopefully the club can step forward for the final game and push, something special would obviously be appreciated by everyone involved.

strong and stable with me, or...
Didn’t we meet up at the Amex at 05.30 to get to Selhurst? Reckon the only reason we were late is Brett M had been out on the lash and hadn’t really slept. Was that really a decade ago!!??
And not forgetting @Stat Brother was there both legs @Hamilton

Our local youth football club was a beneficiary of an REMF donation. It made a meaningful difference to the welfare of the club and I’m sure others will say the same. Well done and thank you.
