Got Â£50 from our OSC branch funds agreed and will add mine too on Sat. Great news. Look forward to seeing how this develops.

Reading about the rewards, does this mean there will be an official loaf named after rawk?! That would be cool if so. I'd def have to get one of them

Cheers - easiest thing now is to donate direct to the Homebaked Kickstarter fund (link in OP).

We have raised the dough for a RAWK Loaf ( boom-tish), so Homebaked Anfield will be selling a Red And White Kob once they have their oven up and running.

Just pledged £15. Looks like this one will get over the finish line, but we need to keep pushing.

I just pledged £10 via the Kickstart site. They only have about £700 to go, which is great.

They're on nearly £14500. They'll have enough for 2 ovens at least at this rate! Brilliant.

RAWK Dough hit the Kickstarter today, and carried them over the line! Happy days and big thanks to all of you who made a contribution here, through their site or at the bakery itself. This is the first step; now they need match goer support to ensure that they thrive in the future.

Oh wow - didn't know that

That makes this news even better

Great to hear they've cracked it

I was talking to Britt from the bakery today and I'm going to be helping a bit there. Maybe I'll bake one of the Red and White Kobs!

The good (no, make that gorgeous) people of Red And White Kop forum have donated over a grand to our kickstarter campaign!

Excellent - well in everyone who has donated either via RAWK or directly on Kickstarter.

A fantastic community project gets a chance to thrive and matchgoers get the chance of a nice pie.

Power to the pieple!

That's brilliant Cato! Please keep us informed on how you get on at the bakery.

In the end, RAWK raised £1100 for the oven, and many other RAWKites have donated direct to the Kickstarter, or have visited them on match days in recent weeks.

I'm delighted to see that they're just about to break the £15,000 mark today, which is a real validation from the community that they serve, and that will support them, into the future.

I think we're the only football website (possibly the only website of any kind) in the world which has it's own loaf!

Red And White Kob.

And don't forget Michael, Roy's a big fucking doughnut so that's possibly a first for a footy website too.

Well they're all made up that there's enough money for the oven now, but there needs to be some work done first, to install a ventilation pipe for it. So they're going to buy a domestic oven to plug the gap before the real oven gets put in, just to get them going.
I'm going to be helping there before the match on Saturday, they're open 11am- 3pm, but I'll have to leg it about 2:45 to get to my seat for KO.
The more support the better, hot drinks, soup, pies etc. Come one, come all!

Went in before the last game and will definitely go again.

MichaelA · « **Reply #141 on:** January 19, 2013, 11:41:27 am »

Don't forget to visit today - the oven isn't there yet but they're selling hot drinks and food. Homebaked needs sustained support from the community to ensure it becomes a success.

Shanklygates · « **Reply #142 on:** January 20, 2013, 01:37:41 pm »

Just added mine - over £16,000 pledged now!

Can't wait till the next match I go to, just so I can try some of their wares!

For those of you who supported "Rise Up Anfield" I'm in the bakery tonight, watching the first loaves baking in the oven!!!
Thanks for all your support and don't forget to call in on Monday night before the match and have a hot drink, soup, cake etc. (hopefully pies)
