That's cool! Mind if I link it in as a story on the official site?

Course not PStu, fire away.

Most of them did well and came close, apart from me nearly hitting the corner flag at the end

good video, will you be getting to any other EL clubs?

**Mento** · 06/10/2007, 6:15 PM

we will indeed.
looks like we have a sponsor to pay the guy who records it.
So we hope to feature every el club over the next few months.
We also plan to do amateur sides

Looks like the 3 left-footed players were all close to hitting the bar - don't think much of the coaches shots though

Paddy Power have been running a crossbar challenge at Pats all season. No one had managed it, and the prize money had gone up to €7,000. On Friday at the Bohs match they let a couple of kids have a go after the main three participants, and lo and behold, one of the kids put them all to shame by successfully hitting the bar. (They didin't give him the €7,000 though, he had to make do with a jersey.

)

Also stopped moving it forwards some of the attempts have been embarrassing, also stopped letting opp fans have a go or maybe it was just bohs fans

I presume your challenge is from the spot/18 yard line?
