    As a Bray Supporter, perhaps Colm Tresson or Bo McKeever (Bo only ever played LOI for Bray)[/QUOTE]
    I'd go with Colm Tresson or Tarzan. Two out and out Bray men. Tresson is probably the best player the club has ever had

    Really excellent drawings.

    Question tho from looking at your online shop you seem to cover a lot of players, what do you do about royalties to those players? Is it an issue ?
    5-0

    Honestly, it's something I've done a little research on, and there's not a lot of info out there I can find. I talk to a lot of lads who do this sort of work professionally however, and they generally have 0 problems, however there can be image rights issues where clubs are concerned, I've heard of a few premier league clubs threatening artists for making work involving their crest etc, as it could be competing with some of the clubs own merch...

    It generally seems to be a case of no one really cares, it's not hurting anyone's image, or taking money away from them so there's no reason to seek payment, most artists wouldn't be able to afford to pay them anyway to be honest. Most lads take it as a compliment if you make the work, Some have even bought prints of themselves :P

    It's a different story, if it was fan art from movies, video games etc as you're re appropriating someone elses artwork, and in that situation any work you create even if only loosely based on the original art, is actually their property and illegal for you to sell. People still sell the stuff obviously, and for the most part no one raises an eyebrow, but I do know nintendo have come down on people occasionally to make examples.

    So this football lark could be loosely similar in that there could be the possibility of a need to seek permission from the players, but there's not a snowballs chance of it ever being actually necessary to do so.

    Hope that helps! Feel free to correct me if I'm wrong, any legal whiz'

    Acornvilla maybe you could do one of yourself as a town mascot from 2000 as I happened to be looking at old town programmes from that era and seen a pict of you as a mascot for one of the cup matches was it harps?
    Gary Cronin is he the right man to manage Longford Town?

    We'll give him another year or two to win a bit more, although if someone wants one done specifically they can always PM me about it :P

    Don't think he's actually from Cork, though he may have lived here for a spell in the 70s.

    Haven't seen Tom for a while. Look forward to him resurfacing to tell us we're rubbish and going to be relegated. He used to say that when we were winning cups and in the top 5 in the league.
    Upwards to the vanguard where the pressure is too high.

    He was in Oriel for the last game of the season, he said Cork will do the double next year.

    Cork Tom lives in Ballybofey, that's why he's at so many games in the Showgrounds. He has permanent residence with a hotel up there.

    Chick Deacy for Galway United.

    He won a league medal with Aston Villa and returned home to play for Galway United but wouldn't take a penny. He was still playing junior football until his untimely passing.
    Nobody knows us, we don't care

    He certainly claims Cork to be 'his team' anyway.
