The banners and big flags have taken a fair oul beating during the season with all the Euro trips and eL games. We will gather everything together and assess exactly what needs repairing at the end of the season. We hope to replace any damaged flags/poles etc. with new ones. Your thoughts and ideas on any new gear would be appreciated.


Anyone know where we can get a megaphone at short notice? It took a hopper last night - need one for the Bohs game!

Even someone could get a loan of one for the last day .... we could then sort something out for after that.

Anyone got one in work that Eric could borrow for the night Friday?
We haven't time to buy one on tifo.it

My thoughts exactly. If anyone's likely to have a megaphone in work it's the 'megaphone man' himself! :)

See here (http://www.peats.ie/cgi-bin/shop/db.cgi?view=1&id=6352&type=6&path=17x5760x5764) for a reasonable looking megaphone for €65

There's one fundamental problem with that idea. Unless somebody's prepared to go to Dublin to pick it up, it takes two weeks to ship..... :rolleyes:

Mind you, if someone's willing to go and pick it up, I'll donate some money to the said purchase. :D :eek:

Cheers Wicklowrebel. That one would do the job. Just give it a quick test in the shop with your mobile to see if it works!

We need ot make sure that we have batteries for it aswell so you'll need ot say what size they are !!

Wicklowrebel
16/11/2004, 3:48 PM

Ill be leaving Jackland about 12:30 or 1:00 so will be in the Turners Cross tavern about 5:30 or 6.

Hey you lot!!! I wanna donate as well. It's not often I put my hand in my pocket so make the most of it while you can.

Yeah it arrived alright ... and could be heard from where i was. What did you think Eric ?? The money was collected and ready to give to WR, just wondering did he meet up with the lads ??

redgav
22/11/2004, 9:44 AM
yeah , WR was late gettin down as he was pickin me up inJackeen land - didn't hit Douglas till 7 pm -- Gave the yolk a quick test and handed it over to the lads .Met Eric after in the shed and he sorted out WR

it wasnt the best in the end. you probably need to spend quite a bit of money to get a decent one

Eric
23/11/2004, 7:22 PM
I met Wicklow Rebel after the game the other night and sorted him out with the cash.

I thought the megaphone was pretty decent except the ringtones didn't come across that loud on it. I had people saying to me that they could hear the singing on it towards the other end of the ground, which was never the case with the old one.

I've been doing a bit of scouting on different sites since Friday and the strongest megaphone I've found is a 45w one which at the moment costs $140 + postage and packaging

i'm sure FFO could stretch to that???

no reason why we couldn't sort one of those out for next season I'd say. we can always run another collection and sell that one on ebay or something:

"only used once. rebel army collectors item in good working order." :D

there should be another 3 or 4 megaphones bought it would really enhance the atmosphere at the matches but the 3 or 4 lads would have to practice to be synch with each other :p

Wicklowrebel
24/11/2004, 12:42 PM
Just be careful to check the battery they need, They had a bigger one, 25W when I was getting that but it needed basically a car battery.

I'd say be no trouble getting donations for a 2nd megafone.

Would be best to do some research & see if got 2nd person available to use it & then ask for the donations before buying.
