We must make a few bob out of this night just hopeing its enough with the Leeds game as well COYB!!!

What an incredible list of stuff, add to that all Trevor's things as well. Amazing.

Joe Vagana 2003 playing shirt just added!

Wish I had the money to bid for that!

Would it fit you?

That list is incredibly humbling. My only worry is if there are enough people out there with sufficient money to ensure all those things realise their individual worth.

Agree with tt. I just have a feeling that there is not going to be enough people there with enough money.

thats impessive,

but do you really think the people attending the auction (people who have probably already pledged cash) will be forking out massive amounts of additional cash for previously unimaginable purchases?

and wheres Paul Deacons 2003 ring?!

Me and me dad are donating Brian Macs 1997 Challenge Cup shirt as well, hopefully it will be a successful night! #savethebulls

Looks like its going to be a long night, how long does it take to raffle 67 items? There might be a risk of "auction fatigue" setting in after 20 items.

Probably a bit late now to suggest it, but wouldnt it be possible to divert half the items into a raffle at the Leeds game?

You've missed out item 68. The chance to provide commentary on a future Bradford Bulls game with myself.

Also included in the prize will be a tour of the World famous Odsal press room and attend the post match interviews after the game.

In a general auction with an experienced auctioneer lots are knocked down at 1 per minute. Exceptional ones take up to 2 minutes.
I agree about fatigue, tho if a pro auctioneer is used the momentum can be sustained. It'a a skill.
Some "lesser" items may be held back from auction to be prizes in a grand raffle on the night.
A £100 of raffle tickets might see someone winning a decent piece of memorabilia, and if not then its a contribution to the funds. Win/win situation imo.

Auction items can be sold in 15 - 20 secs. That will mean the whole event could be done quickly! The order they are sold in may need some thought. If a few items fail to meet their reserve (and £5K is a lot for most people!) then momentum can be lost.

With time a raffle for some of the lower end items may have been preferable.

Good luck.

There is a raffle for some of the "lesser items". Tickets already on sale. So for a fiver you could win a fantastic piece of memorablilia.
