Rocks target has been raised yet again, to 50k this time (currently 33k) I can't help but feel we maybe missed a trick by letting up on the momentum we had getting to the 43k. Had we stretched the target to even a modest 50k and kept promoting it I reckon we'd be there by now. As it is we've got 20 something days to go and the champagne has long since gone a bit flat. The counter arguement to that is of course that repeatedly setting a target then raising it once the fans have reached it or neared it is, well, greedy. Arguably it could even be dancing round the fringes of being a bit 'fraudy' too... "come with us as we march to the top of that there hill"...then "cheers for marching up that hill, now there's this other hill... and now yet another hill I think we did exactly the right thing in setting a target and then sticking to it for exactly the reasons you give I'm not sure if that is the case with theirs but I do note that the Bog effort appears to have slowed down markedly since hitting the initial £30K goal

One day left for the Rocks I think they'll likely surpass our total as they're only about 800 notes behind. Does make you wonder what we could've yielded had we also 'stretched' our target a bit having so quickly and comfortably hit our starting target. Great effort from Rocks fans ...and with Lewes nearing £24k it's great to see healthy support for Sussex football in general.

...talking of which my daily check of the Isthmian site shows Burgess Hill are the latest to take the crowdfunder route with a £10k target for new lighting. 'Light Up Leylands'

I've said it once and I'll say it again when did the crowdfunding become a competition!! It seems Bognor are obsessed with Out doing Worthing. Or are we becoming as BIG as they think they are ¿ ??¿
