We\u2019re excited to launch a brand-new feature \u2013 Thunderbolt: Fan of the Week\u2019, celebrating the incredible supporters who make the Vikings community so special.<\/p>\n
For our very first edition, we are proud to feature Maureen Abbott, who has renewed her season ticket for an amazing 62nd consecutive year!<\/p>\n
The club would like to say a huge thank you to Maureen for her lifelong support. She was one of the original members of the \u2018Lady Vikings\u2019, an all-female fan group who raised funds for the club and organised events. Their dedication even included making breakfast for players after Saturday training sessions!<\/p>\n
Maureen\u2019s passion and loyalty perfectly capture the spirit of Vikings fans, and we are thrilled to start this new weekly feature by celebrating her.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"We\u2019re excited to launch a brand-new feature \u2013 Thunderbolt: Fan of the Week\u2019, celebrating the incredible supporters who…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":242018,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[35],"tags":[5903,101,56,54,55],"class_list":["post-242017","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-rugby","tag-rugby","tag-sports","tag-uk","tag-united-kingdom","tag-unitedkingdom"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/242017","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=242017"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/242017\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/242018"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=242017"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=242017"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=242017"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
