Both sides have really come together with this, Millwall fans are fully behind it. Just goes to show despite society’s view of football fans in general, as a whole the football community is fantastic. I have been diagnosed with terminal cancer myself. If there's anything I can do to help with this please let me know. That you I’ve just heard on radio Stoke mate ....Russ? If so you are a credit 👍

Great cause. Not donated as I've just put down £800 towards my event I'm doing for charity but still wish you all the best

I met young Isla and her family last night for the first time when I went to collect the West Ham kit from their house. A very very humbling experience.
Isla’s parents are so strong and Isla was running around like any normal 3 year old just a week after an op to remove a brain tumour with the only visible signs being her face and head are totally bruised from the surgery
An inspiration for all

Where do I start!!!
Today’s Brentwood half marathon was cancelled due to the inclement weather and will not be rescheduled. I took all the donations on the premise that I would do the forfeits I put in place. So I will honour them all.
So now on Saturday 31st March, I will run a much more dangerous route from Cold Blow Lane to the Olympic Stadium via the New Den and the Boleyn ground wearing full West Ham kit and having claret and blue dyed hair. I will do crosses hammers at the finish where I will meet up with some of Isla’s fundraisers and then take in the West Ham v Southampton game
I’ll be surprised if I don’t get a whack from someone along the route, more so through Millwall territory in Bermondsey!!
I hope this will satisfy all of those who have donated. Wish me luck, I need it!!
I thank you all once more for your incredible support

If you do get a slap, you can refer your anger, back onto me if we do end up meeting next season. Thinking on now, and after all my lip, I might miss all potential Millwall matches in the future. All the best for 31st March. Stay safe or as safe as you can wearing the Claret... and Blue. Good luck mate.

I’ve tried to stay under the radar as I don’t want it to be about me, but the family have been in touch and we are now try and use this run to see if we can make a national newspaper so as to give Isla the exposure her story needs for her funding

Two more days until I run into the valley of death! Look out for the Goals pull out in The Sun this weekend, it’s possible there will be a bit in there about Isla, the run and the coming together of football fans to raise this money

Superb effort in what your doing, as you say football means nothing when it comes to people sticking together to help each other.

Well it’s all done and dusted, I did it!!! Had a great day, met and drank with some proper old school West Ham. Got drunk as you like and had a good laugh with them. But most importantly as a group, I and all the supporters on the forums I’ve connected with have raised over £21,000 for the beautiful young Isla. I want to thank the Stoke fans on The Oatcake for all your donations and support. You have been incredible and should be proud of yourselves. A proper club with proper fans. Thank you again and if you want to donate again the link is www.justgiving.com/fundraising/tony-munday3I’ll just post some photos up of the day and once more say thank you
