GENEROUS Swindon Town fans today continued to pledge goods to the cash-strapped club.
Since Friday's appeal in the Evening Advertiser, fans have come forward to donate all manner of equipment from computers and printers to pencils and Post-it notes.
One fan even has even bought four new corner flags.
The total amount of equipment given so far is estimated at £15,000.
Chief executive Mark Devlin, 39, poured cold water on those who have mocked the club's cap-in-hand approach.
He said: "We are continuing to collect paint, Post-it notes and all manner of equipment from kind-heart-ed and generous fans who have the best interests of the club at heart.
"In fact we could probably start up our own Post-it notes factory with the number we have received.
"It's not a bad thing that we are doing. All the people who have helped want to. And we will use the money we have saved on other things.
"I don't care if we get a bit of stick for what we are doing. I expect around 90 per cent of Football League clubs could do with this support.
"Hopefully now we can give something back because the fans have had a tough time over the past few years."
Funds were so tight that ground staff were forced to use a domestic lawnmower to tend the County Ground pitch before Derek Belcher, managing director of Handy Garden Machinery in Hyde Road, loaned an industrial mower.
Mr Belcher, 54, said: "I couldn't let the club go on like that. That's why we will keep them in grass cutting equipment until further notice.
"People have had the good times and it is time we all pulled together to help out during a tough time for the club."
Football magazine Four Four Two has promised new goal nets, while Arval PHH has donated IT equipment.
Fans Gareth and Cherry Jones have given an ink-jet printer and telephones, and Neil Buckley of the Kings Royal Hussars (Wiltshire Tank Regiment) handed over IT equipment. The club's precarious financial position means the County Ground has not seen a lick of paint in nine years.
It was saved from liquidation in April after the High Court agreed to an unprecedented second spell of administration.
The recent collapse of ITV Digital and the promise of TV money has also hit the club hard.
