Irish Fans United will be printing leaflets to promote the Pats v Bohs game this Friday, and to protest against Sky showing Chelsea v Man United on the same evening after we changed our games to Fridays to suit them. The wording is below (it will be laid out more attractively, with club crests etc).

We will be distributing the leaflets on Thursday and Friday in pubs, shopping centres etc. and possibly door-to-door in Inchicore, Phibsboro and the city centre.

We will decide on our print run later today, based on how many fans want to help with distribution.

If you can help, please let us know when and where and for how long you can distribute leaflets, how many leaflets you want, whether you would like to collect some and do them yourself or join with a group etc.

Based on the response, we will print the leaflets later today (Wednesday) and have them ready for distribution by about lunchtime Thursday.

You can leave a message here, or ideally email me at michael@happying.com

We look forward to a positive response,

Michael Nugent

ENJOY LIVE, PROFESSIONAL, IRISH FOOTBALL

In country after country, TV deals are destroying football. Here, when Sky wanted to broadcast live British games on Sundays, we agreed to shift our national league games to Fridays. Now this Friday Sky are showing Chelsea v Man United (Sky also have shareholdings in both clubs and are Chelsea’s media agents). Show that you care more about Irish football than Sky TV deals. Enjoy live, professional, Irish football this Friday.
