President, Irish Football Supporters Association
Alan Hunter, general secretary of the Irish Football Supporters' Association
:rolleyes:
That is the guy who calls himself Alan Hunter when RTE want a negative soundbite regarding Irish football.
I have never met any other member of the association. I've never seen any events organised by the association. I've never seen an address or contact number for this association.

I dont think that is the Alan
I'm not sure who came across as the bigger arse on liveline - the bloke who was complaining (whether Hunter or not), or Courtenay trying to big up his support for the LoI... Both came across terribly.
Edit: Actually it was whoever was presenting who was the biggest arse, trying to turn it into an are/aren't celtic irish debate!

It was obviously a very slow news day! having said that traffic to the webstore was up 600% yesterday!!
No one seems to have a problem with Olympic Lyon or Sweden 07:confused:
I did, back in June ... :p

Under the "Ireland Soccer Jerseys" link you can buy Swedens and Olympic Lyon shirts?

Ringo, think you should be happy. Free advertising. Lots of people probably didn't realise the facility existed.
A very positive response from everyone i talked to today. On a different note!!!

Would be funny to have the England, Sweden and Lyon shirts hanging in the
background of the pics taken of the Bohs lads :D
But apart from that I was only in that shop once and was able to get a
(Ireland) sweatshirt/zip top that I'd been after for a while buy was unable to
source anywhere before so it got the thumbs upn from me

Ringo,
I personally don't think the shop should sell any merchandise promoting any club / association outside of the FAIs jurisdiction. You would not see Liverpools shop selling Everton or Utd merchandise.
The shop is advertised I believe as the FAI store and therefore should not be promoting clubs etc outside of the FAI remit, however if the shop is XYZ's sports shop with an FAI section that would be diffrerent, i know it may seem petty but i doubt if you will see Munster jerseys for sale in the Leinster shop in Donnybrook!

Well maybe when the sales increase & its paying for itself, we an have luxury of turning down product. There’s a reason we haven't had a store before, it’s not profitable. The Store has always been called the FAI/UMBRO store. The Non Irish product is away from the Ireland product & has its own header cards

Ringo,
Possibly crossed wires, I meant to refer to the online FAI store selling non FAI products, not the shop in Carrolls which is where Carrolls have allocated floor space to FAI producs and floor space to Umbro products and this is perfectly ok IMO.
I have not been into the Carrolls FAI Umbro shop yet, but next time Im buying stuff I will certainly buy it there.
Good luck with your venture!

Also Ringo.........it might be a good idea to highlight the shop a bit better since its very easy to pass without even noticing that there is your shop downstairs, I mean its not so obvious from the street........:)

The online store is just an extension of the shop in Westmoreland Street, Carrolls operate it & paid for it. The agreement for it is with UMBRO, hence the UMBRO product. Maybe the title of the website should reflect this though.

Just wondering if you have the U21 Georgia tickets in the shop. I'd rather not pay ticketmaster charges unless I have to.

Is the FAI shop for Umbro products only?

All the clothing is sourced through the company that have the Umbro Licence. So its not just Umbro product. We can’t sell UCD shirts for example because O’Neills won’t supply us, rather than Umbro blocking it.
