Red Panda 366 Posted November 22, 2015 You might be sure but I have my doubts. It's off-season, Christmas is coming and I suspect compassion fatigue may have set in. Still, there may be hope. Perhaps Darcy will split his donations equally with the guys in the same predicament as he's in? Now that's the sort of thing that would do his image the world of good. To be fair people will donate to who they choose to............Darcy is a high profile rider world wide where as others are not that well known outside their own country.............. What Darcy does with his money is up to him and the trustees of the fund................if he chooses to donate some to riders in a similar position as he is that is up to them................ I do post updates on the Facebook page that I run about any rider that has been seriously injured as and when I see anything.......... What also makes a difference these days is the power of social media............back when Joe Owen and Alan Wilkinson were injured there was no social media and all that was done were track collections and what was arranged through the clubs management to raise money for them............... What I don't like to see is people saying why donate to one and not another..............people will do what they want with their money and its not for the likes of you or me to tell them which riders to donate it to.............but then the way some of these posts have been worded anyone would think that Darcy should not have had any donations.................the past is the past and no one is perfect................and anyone who says they are is lying................
