Regular users of this site would be aware that since 1998 we have been completely independent.

That is, we do not receive any funding from outside sources (Unlike some other sites). 

The truth of the matter is that the site is run by fans for the fans, For our entire existence we have funded site fees from our own pockets, with the occasional appeal to fans to help contribute.

Now we find ourselves in somewhat of a dilemma ….

In recent times the site has suffered a series of outages, so much so that we have decided to move the site on to a new server.

This is going to happen in late March 2021 but it’s going to come at a cost.

The cost of moving and having the site hosted for the next 3 years is going to be about $640 (AUS) / £356 GBP / $488 (USA)

Because of the circumstances, we have decided to launch an appeal to try to raise the required funds. We will be keeping a public running tally of donations received in the interest of transparency.

This is where you come in.

If you can possibly afford a small donation (or a large one!) then please click below to donate via our official account on our chosen Go Fund Me platform.

From all the team at AFG we thank you in anticipation!

THANK YOU!!!!! It only took a few days to reach our target. We raised $1055 (AUS) / £590 / $815 (USA) from PayPal and the Go Fund Me platform (After fees.) This is more than enough to keep the site going for the next 3 years. Again, thanks to all who contributed.
