How is it political?
The Government promised laptops for kids, they haven’t delivered.
Private firms and charities are stepping in to fill the gap because of that.
Not political at all.

If you say, why are there potholes in the road when the government promised they’d fill them? then yes, you’re bringing politics into it.
But anyway, laptops for kids. A very kind gesture. I’d rather charity was done on the quiet rather than with a press release and accompanying video, but that’s by the by.
I’ll make this easy for you, Club does excellent work to help the community in challenging times, the mention of “Government” appears, it’s now political[emoji106]
Don’t bother replying and ruining a good news thread [emoji120]

Why? A lot of people have donated to the Albion As One fund - players, fans, directors. It's not unreasonable for people to know where their money has gone.
And before you say 'so it's not the club that is donating', it's a fund run by the club that is donating.

I would love to answer you, but , [MENTION=534]Chicken Run[/MENTION] says I’m on the naughty step, and I’m not allowed to or it’s early to bed and no tea.

Fair enough.
I agree with you.
Lovely gesture from the club. We’re run by such genuine people, can’t fault the gesture.
But it’s not their job.
Out of interest, what’s the shortfall? Take Sussex for example, how many children are without laptops who need them?

I'm going to get political but in no way having a go at my club, who are helping kids that should have been helped 10 months ago.
My Granddaughter is mildly disabled, but is unable to get a place in school (I've been through this else where). They have no internet but recently been offered an added extra data allowance on the mobile plus a 4G router. They were told there are no laptops available.
So I purchased a new laptop last week. Internet gadgets that were promised may be here in a few weeks!!!!
So I then had broadband installed, three week wait for an engineer.
Can someone at the top either get their finger out or sort out the parents sending their kids to school when the can just as easily work from home.
