Now to round up some Eastern European room fillers :p

[Monkfish]

How long do ye reckon this will go on for? work @8pm that night but trying to get it pushed back to 10pm so i can have a nose. BTW anyone know anything about the badge?

[LFC in Exile]

club shares will be on sale on the night.

What does this mean? Can anyone buy shares and how much are they. Will this entitle holders to votes or just symbolic?

Great to hear this - it all seems to be going well so far. :ball:

250 quid a share. On sale to everyone, entitles you to a vote at the agm :ball:

Any money Danny comes along and buys a shed load of shares, you heard it hear first people! ;)

I don't see the problem with that. His money is as good as anybody's. 250 squids for one vote is fairly steep. And I presume junior, schoolboy etc have retained sufficient votes to keep control.

At the Supporters' Club meeting in the Garda Club last month, we were told that shares would cost €250 each. 100 shares would get you a seat on the board. And I think we were told that the various entities making up Soccer Limerick would between them control 40% of the shares.
So I take it that, like any other company, one share will buy you one vote at the AGM. But this is not likely to give you much input into the day-to-day running of the company, which would be overseen by the board.
However, buying shares would obviously be a good way for supporters to support their club: it would certainly be more meaningful and involving than simply handing over a small wad of cash from time to time from whatever (relatively) petty fundraising activities the Supporters' Club would undertake.

shares are being sold way too cheap!!! year ago pats sold life memberships for 1000 pounds when they were in harolds x and fcuked financially ... that now equates to about 3 years season tickets ... club is losing out big time and asked fans to hand them back, some did and some didnt ...

youd be better setting up as a members club type setup and building up a base of subscribers at say 250 yoyos a year, a five a week, price of a pint and you get to buy season ticket then for 100 yoyos as opposed to regular higher price ...

if ye got 50 fans signed up that would be 16500K a year coming in every year ...

from little seeds grow big trees ...

Thanks,

It is money we need, not kids' toys.

All depends man

I mean if they're the yoyos with the flashing lights we could easily flog them off for 3 Euro each

FFS I am trying to make a serious point about your club structures and yiz are cracking lame jokes about toys.

If the club is going to thrive, you are going to have to get more serious about things including especially the financial structures.

What are we supposed to do, plan a protest cos the club shares aren't expensive enough? You made a point but there's nothing we can do about it, I'm willing to put my trust in those who have gotton things this far...

Give us an auld bar of blackholesun there......

[jebus]

Good stuff last night lads, we got the Suppertors Club committee sorted out, and I have to say that the L37 merchandise is top notch, the New York Cosmos style t-shirt in particular is gonna fly off the shelves I reckon

[young boy]

jebus

can u tell us what players attended and signed

[redron]

Everyone involved in last night's launch deserves a pat on the back.
I too very much like the retro shirt with the white sash!

And well done Ger on the radio this morning. (For those who missed it, the 'Limerick Today' programme is repeated after the news at midnight. Ger was the second item (I think) in the second hour.)

[Breska Rover]

Yes well done Ger Finnian, Put the club forward very well on the radio this morning.

Where and when will the merchandise be available?

I presume the set up with merchandisung will be better than last year, lets face it it could'nt be much worse

[WeAreRovers]

All the best lads, I think this is a genuine good news story. The footage from 1982 on the news last night was fantastic, especially the team parading down O'Connell Street on the back of a mud-splattered VW van. Hope the glory days return.
