On behalf
of the Craig Shearer Testimonial Committee, I write offering sincere thanks to
everyone who supported Craig's Testimonial year, be it through sponsorship
and/or participation at the various events, prize donations, attendance at the
Wick Academy versus Ross County fixture or simply through words of
encouragement and praise for Craig himself.
I cannot
speak highly enough of Ross County FC who provided a full strength opposition
for Craig's Testimonial and made it a night that Craig will forever remember.
Given that Wick ‘won the first half 1-0', it truly was a great spectacle for
everyone associated with the Club. Ross County FC are a credit to football in
the north of Scotland and will truly deserve their success when it comes. We
all hope it arrives sooner rather than later.
Craig has
commented that the testimonial dinner was a special night, and this was made
even more so by the support provided by Murray Lamont and The Mackays Hotel who
did us all proud. There are many many others who offered their support and
assistance, too many to mention here but we are indebted to you all for helping
make Craig's testimonial such a success.
I would
also personally like to thank the testimonial committee for their hard work and
commitment throughout the year, for without you, none of this could have happened.
Thank You all.
Finally I
would like to thank Wick Academy FC for agreeing to Craig's testimonial request
and for their participation in the events.
Craig
himself has said that he feels privileged and humbled by the support shown and
as such has donated £1,250 to both The Henderson Wing of the Caithness General
Hospital and to the Caithness Early Years Autism Centre (CEYAC) based at
Pultneytown Academy and he hopes that this can provide some help to each of
these deserving causes.
Yours
faithfully
Alistair Ross
