is the profit split between the club and Fareshare or is it all to Fareshare?

An update - we have sold over 1400 tickets now, with no games for next few weeks could I ask for a push from our generous fans, no 50/50 too, so can you ask your friends and collegues to participate please.
I have to date a dozen bottles donated so closing in on that target of 20.

Latest update, we have sold 2000 tickets with 2 weeks still to go, so thanks to all that have bought tickets to date.
We have an additional prize from our captain Will Hatfield giving a pair of his boots.
Sunshine Holidays have made a fantastic gesture by donating a £250 holiday voucher as a prize in the Christmas Draw.
18 bottles now donated by fans too.

Brilliant total when you consider all the restrictions that this virus placed on the usual ways of selling tickets. Perhaps can keep Gary Brown's free boiler service offer for next year's draw :D
