    I have a scarf, but the towel is cool and the pin badge is, shall we say, an improvement on what we have.

    Some of the merchandise seems nice, but I'm not pushed about the whole pack.

    Colm and the other guy who set this up were at the FAI meeting, and gave a pitch on it. They seem to be mainly aiming at the ex-pat market. I don't know if it's a good business plan overall - they need a lot of sales to break even, but I hope they succeed with it.

      The A stands for Association.

        Yes it does. Good spot. I hope those hats haven't been made yet.

          Because it would be hilarious if they made a thousand blue UCD hats and afterwards discovered that they were crap.

            I think it's spam.

            The Club Shop already carry some of those items (hats, bags etc) and other items are available from some people close to the club ( car stickers etc.).

            The error with the club name is a reflection of the distance the manufacturers are from the individual football club.
            (It would not stop the sellers attempting to sell the items though.)

            All they will find is my
            beer and my shirt."

              Yeah, they'd have to foist them off on unsuspecting children or something.

              EDIT: Harpo, there's less distance between the manufacturers and the club than you might think. Titan's involved in this.

                And the prize goes to Student Mullet!

                Yeah we know that but the guy doing the cads didnt. The actual hat has UCD AFC on it.

                  Which club shop would this be?The one I tried to set up at the start of the season?

                  The error was a typo. The manufacturer in the case of the hat is based 120 miles north of UCD and we are based about 45 miles north!

                    Just to clarify, the hat doesn't have UCD Athletic Football Club on it then?
                    Only the website is in error?

                    If I get an answer to these questions it will help me respond to your next post.

                              Thanks for your reply.

                              In answer to your earlier questions.
                              The Club Shop in the Sports Centre near the UCD Bowl sell hats, tops and bags with the UCD crest. I am starting to replenish by my UCD wardrobe from it.

                              All they will find is my
                              beer and my shirt."
