Scratch card

[killer miller]

Did any body else get a woman or man at the door today? with a seagulls scratch card-with the chance to win 100 pound or a car?

I've seen these Seagulls scratch cards kicking about for years in random papershops. Always assumed that they were some kind of low-level scam or that they were about twenty years past their sell-by date, cos I've never once seen them promoted in any shape or form by the club

(that's a 'shrug' smiley in old money by the way)

They should promote the new Amex scratch and sniff card -for that new stadium smell.

They are offical and endorsed by the club since the 80's

My Dad does them for the club shop if it helps the club it is a good thing to do

We buy a Seagull Lottery ticket once a week, a lady comes to our door with them. Only ever won £2 but these are official Albion tickets, I remember a friend used to sell them years ago as well. They still have old players' pics on them!

There was a questionnaire last month asking if the regulars wanted the Seagull Lottery changed (more prizes I think such as vouchers to spend in the shop - but I think they were considering not having the big prize of the car).

Somebody comes to my grandad's house with them every week and he always buys one-has done for years. I don't think he has ever won more than a pound but considering he hates betting I have always been suprised he does it at all

Would be a refreshing change for someone selling Albion scratchcards coming to the door rather than Jehovas Witnesses.

Perhaps we could get Jehovah's witnesses to sell scratch cards?

Could kill two birds with one stone.

I’m Gobsmacked some of you did not know these exist.

There is a large band of dedicated collectors including myself who have been delivering these for years generating much needed revenue for the club.

There are currently two type, a instant win scratch off card to match 3 symbols.
£1,2,5,10,20 up to £1000 and club shirts & the a car !, all for just a £1 a go

As a point of interest, in the current batch of 1 million tickets there are I believe 4 cars to be won, and having sold 300,000 into this batch no cars have yet been claimed, so the odds say one is due very soon, so get on board now ! PM me your details an I will get a collector to call on you.

Also there is a Bingo card to again with 4 playing cards to win up to £1000

Both these games are £1 each and collectors call either each week or fortnightly.
You can subscribe monthly, annually if you wish and the club will scratch them off for you.
In fact one of these subscribers did recently will £1000

The club is always looking for new collectors for both these and the new Albion lotto draw to be announced very soon.
Its a bit of extra pocket money and you will be helping the club.

Again if interested please PM me.

Ah, right, cheers for info. I in turn am genuinely gobsmacked that it seems to be quite a large operation. I honestly never knew it existed other than as I say some totally unpromoted scratchcards lying forlornly on the shelf of random papershops.

And cheers for the PM offer, but now that I know they are indeed legit and active, I'll be be able to pick one up easy enough.

But they could do with being promoted a whole lot more by the club. IMHO, like.

The club are advertising for Lottery agents right now.

TBH your comments are not uncommon, a few of us have been saying for years that it should be promoted more in the programme and on the club web site etc and particular on match days.
The new lotto will be a lot more highbrow in its promotion.
