tv3 coverage

[max power]

one of my housemates in an editor on tv3 and has told me that the reason that our games are sometimes not featured on the box in the weekly review is because it costs to much to send a camera man down to Longford, if someone within the club had a quality camera and would cover the home matchs, it would gurantee that all games would be seen by fans who could not make it to the match, plus the team could watch the games for faults, incidents etc.

its just what i've been told by tv3 but i think it would be worth while

This has been mentioned on here before, and as well as the benefits for the team and fans, it would increase the appeal of sponsoring the team, be that shirt, ground, perimeter....

I notice on Soccercentral that Home Farm are recording all their home games this season....

if anyone is interested or knows someone who is, i can put you on touch with the right person in tv3, we should get someone to do a dummy run at the bohs game and i will give it to the lads in tv3 and see is the quality ok for them and if they can use it

Bohs have a sponsorship program going where the supporters sponsor each video...

It's increases the profile of any advertising hording captured on TV3...

Club should also look at business sponsorship here too...

[max power]

it should be done, the club should be contacted and i can deal with the tv3 end of things, i know them all in there

A couple of towns matches last season were covered by a local camera from the stand for the use of alan matthews. Duno who he was but he was there when tv3 werent. Towns goals from thurs were on utv live at 6 last night. i bet they wont be eircom league weekly even though trevor welch said that the goals of all 6 premier games would!

[Bosco]

They should be on Eircom league weekly.Tv3 have the footage.The goals were shown on sports tonight last night

[Bosco]

Oh yeah the fella with the camera in the stand his name is something casey I think its Frank Casey

Hey folks, I have just phoned Declan Gilmore, I suppose you could say he's the official Town man for the job and he charges €90 per game... that's reasonable...

€3 x 20...

But I was thinking more of something which raises funds... to which video's of games could be supported... Golden Goals...

The supporters club has their own objectives... The half-time draw gets in the way of selling anything similar, the fanzine is not out often enough to raise the cash... flansiro.net couldn't run with it... where would one look to raise the cash... would you get 20 supporters to put their hands in their pockets for three euro...

where would you go for it...

[max power]

any way of raising money for the club i'll be up for it, just give me the info and the money is yours

[Xlex]

My point is that, there's quite alot which is pulling money out of supporters pockets... we need a new direction to raise a few quid because the same 20 people would finance all video's and eventually it would be a drain...


We should aim to get the third round on recorded, give us time to sort it out, but TBH honest I don't have the time or energy to think long about this, but I'n fairness there has to be 90 ppl who would give €1 to do this for the club... but with what in return...

Thats what i'd like to see City doing, especially because we are going to win the league ... it would be great ot have on video.

any business worth there salt would sponser the video at the match for a free mention at the match and in the program, i as a business owner would do so if approched

[martinho]

Well said Xlex. It sound an excellent idea. You can count on myself an Pauro. Hopefully this will work.
