We have had a phenomenal response to our scheme to fill in the Millbank Linnets Stadium's pitch perimeter with sponsored fence panels.

Thank you to everyone who has contributed so far – your generosity is very much appreciated and has gone a long way to completing the ground improvement work that would need to be carried out under grading regulations within a year should we gain promotion to the Evo-Stik League.

We have already 71 sections of the pitchside fencing filled in and sponsored, these being in the four corners, the full length of the touchline on the dugout side and the at the "bottom end" where we have some as yet untaken sections already fitted with panels ready for sponsorship.

We are grateful for the pledges made to this part of the scheme through sponsorship, as follows:
