Not me.I had a text from DHL to let me know mine was being delivered today still away so won’t be able to sign for it, but I must say you have worried me with yours being damaged. 

Please don't worry; if there's a problem, just let us know (hello@sportspersonalities.org) & we will sort this for you. Look forward to hearing your thoughts!

Mine arrived this morning Louise and I love it. Must report though that even though cardboard tube was extremely substantial the couriers had managed to put a dent in it which resulted in a bit of a crease in the print itself; a day inside an atlas (that's a big book that we used to use look at maps with pre-internet for our younger viewers) with a heavy weight on top it looks much better and once in a frame won't be noticeable I'm sure. I have number 2 of 150, what sod beat me to number one?

Hey Mike, Brilliant news that your print has arrived - appreciate you letting me know. That’s really annoying regarding the dented tube; by all means send us a pic (hello@sportspersonalities.org) & we can always replace this for you. Pleased you love the print itself

Got a print now luckily they hadn’t all gone so happy with that. 

 

Would love to hear your thoughts when you receive the print; keen to raise awareness with Everton fans that these are available. 20% of profit from the sales of Richarlison prints will also be donated to Cure Leukaemia so grateful for your support for them with this purchase too. Thanks!

Missed it fell a sleep after the game and just woke to find I was pipped at the post, bid 670.00 with 30 pp would have been 700. Only consolation is my effort probably helped the price go up which in turn raised more for charity so I will take some solace in that.

Incredibly grateful for your support; thank you sincerely. Really sorry to hear you just missed out.

Just stick in a bid of £2,000 and you'll be guaranteed to win for a lot less and save yourself from the horrors of the alarm clock.

On the subject of alarms; is this just me? Set the alarm for seven, wake up and check the time and it's around five. Totally fail to sleep for the next two hours until the alarm goes off so hit the snooze button and immediately fall asleep for ten minutes (and have a top dream which is interrupted by the alarm), repeat 3/4 times; why is that?

Back on subject I'll definitely be buying a print but sadly wife has insisted it's a present for Josh. Honestly I understand  because we have no room between the Rembrandt's and Van Gogh's so what can you do?

Just to say that prints are now available via our online shop Mike. Here’s a link for you if that helps; https://www.sportspersonalities.org/shop/richarlison

Still leading at present time just over a day to go, could get tricky with the 9 hour time difference if someone up’s the bid with minutes to go

Just to make sure you are aware, the auction finishes at 8pm GMT tomorrow.

Wishing you all the very best with your bidding. Grateful for your support for the auction & the charities

Thanks Louise and seriously the best of luck to you for the future, glad you stopped by our little corner of the web.

Thank you Mike; appreciate your encouragement!

Make sure you let us know when the prints are available Louise, I can't justify competing with Palfy for the original any more but a print would be a great Chrissie Prezzie for someone (from me to me).

They will be available from Monday Mike; link to our online shop here: sportspersonalities.org/shop

I can’t feel sorry for Mike because at the moment I’m leading so fingers crossed it finishes this way, sorry Mike but I’m sure if you didn’t win you’d want me to

Good luck over the remaining 4 days. Thank you for getting behind the auction. Four fantastic charities will benefit from funds raised from the 10 paintings available.

Hope you get it Palfy!

Danny Ings not exactly drawing a lot of interest.

As you say, the Danny Ings one still low. Thought that one may be popular though I guess still four days left..

Still a chance!

Cobbold is quite a common name in Suffolk; as you say, you never know!

On 19/10/2018 at 23:13, MikeO said:

I notice @Louise Cobbold  from ebay that you're in Ipswich, are you a member of the Cobbold family? And if so how did you become a Wolves fan?

PS I'm no longer winning, went to £300 but that was never going to be enough (rightly so). Wife would kill me if I went higher.

Not as far as we are aware! My husband was a mascot for Wolves at Ipswich when he was 6 & his dad (also from Suffolk) supports Wolves too. There are a few around this way! Sorry to hear you’re no longer leading the way in the bidding!

That really is a bit special Louise, very impressed. Also impressed that Wolves are doing something different on their prog covers, it's a great idea.

Thank you Mike; very grateful for your encouragement! This is the third season Wolves have had an artist paint/design their covers but the first that has also included an away player so it’s a really interesting project to be involved in. Thanks again!

Excellent piece of work Louise I will be bidding when the Auction opens it would be a unique piece to own whilst supporting a good cause.

One question Louise was you present when Richarlison signed it it would be nice to know his reaction when he first set eyes on it, I can only imagine he was very impressed.

Thank you for your encouragement & good luck with your bidding! I wasn’t there; usually with the paintings we are getting them signed on the day of the match by the away player but for this one, the first game of the season, my son was a mascot for Wolves & we didn’t have the painting with us so Everton kindly sorted this when we posted it to them. He did like the painting on Twitter (if it’s him who looks after his own feed!). Thanks again!

I only mentioned it because I thought it was a painting of Kevin Richardson an ex Everton player.

Good luck with the Auction.

No problem at all; appreciate your warm wishes for the auction - thank you!

Need to change the name of the thread, it's not Richardson. !

Apologies; wherever I write Richarlison this is the default autocorrect! Seeing if I can change the thread title...
