Barmy Army/ Vocal Fans

Right - I'm calling a meeting of the vocal fans at one of the weekends Super Cup games - probably the Bohs game on Sunday to decide tatics.
Points of Order:
1) Uefa Cup game. Making sure that all the vocal fans from the Buckfast Terrace (RIP) get together for the game, so as to avoid the debacle of the Cup Final. Although that kinda depends on whether the club are going to have the seats unreserved or insist on siting in the allocated seat. (Over to you Gheewhizz!)
2) Collection of monies to sort out flares for the Euro game - My Set Piece Athletic flare contact is to get back to me on the prices.
3) See whether we want to collect for flags and banners - i.e. pool the resources and so get bigger flags!
4) Generally aid the vocal support - hopefully organise it for away games, and aid the spread new songs.
You have been warmed!

Good call Macy, wont be there unfortunatly, will be in London, but this should be the Bible for vocal fans.... Come on the Town!!!! :p
P.S. Any word on the giant flag?

Well unless you've won the lotto, I haven't - so that will have to be a collection job to be discussed.

The club will get fined if you light flares at the European game (probably something in the region of £30,000) - also you'll get fined if you invade the pitch after the game so you might want to let all the GAA fans know! ;)

Also Macy you'll have to make sure everyone learns the words the "You'll never walk in Athlone" :D I'm sure we've still got a few spare t-shirts in Galway if you want 'em! :)

CU

Looks like we'll have to stick to ticker tape, bog roll and till roll then. Actually I was thinking about the flares - not much good when it's going to be a summer evening anyway!
You'll never walk in Athlone has already been introduced to the town song book by meself anyway. My personal favourite rendition was in the Cup semi replay, with John Stacey stood no more than 10 yards away :)
btw I'll have a T-shirt, if you're still going games after your merger. Will you officially challenge Ton the Gom for most matches as a neutral if it happens?;)

Itll be good to hear all the old faves on Wednesday! Now Thats What I Call Town Chants 37!

Macy JC_GUFC is right the club would get fined for Fans lighting Flares & also for invading the pitch. There is more things that fans could do that will get the club fined.

As a man with three years of home economics behind me, i am putting myself forward as the one to make the proposed flag. Anyone see my cup-final effort, and i only had 4 hours. Give me time and ill make you proud.

I've seen his workmanship & it's A1 ;) & I say Go for it sorbo :cool:

Id second that, his Cup Final effort was a masterpiece, and its plain to see that Sorbo is the man for making the giant flag!!! Go for it Sorbo, make the Town proud!!!! :cool: :cool: :cool:
Do it for Town and County!

We'll discuss at either Tolka Friday or the Rugby club on Sunday. Unfortunately no chance of me getting down for the match tonight (well actually it's the getting back to dublin in time tomorrow that is the problem). Probably have to console myself with going to see how $hel$ look with their 35 new signings against the Bowez.

Gheewhizz you can't leave it at that, you better give us the full list and hope it doesn't include abusing referee's or Athlone ;) Seriously, it would help to know what we can and can't do, and would probably help the stewards on the day. Does it include not sitting on the wall?:)

the supporters are going to have a huge part to play in the first home leg...with this in mind i think a large hug LTFC flag that we could pass over our heads would be a great help in creating the best atmosphere flancare has ever seen....prehaps the supporters club could commision such a flag and we the supporters could contribute to the costs....its all about organisation lads !!!! lets make the 9th aug a great day for ale and a great day for the town :) :) :)

Cant wait to sample the Flancare Park atmosphere August 9th, magical occasion, save your voices for that game, we're gonna raise the roof!!! :cool: And with a bit of luck, Sorbo'll have that flag for us!!!!! I think we can create the best atmosphere for a European game in Ireland EVER!

This will have to be sorted. Lesson learnt from The Cup Final. Put us together and in the same section........ Stop quiter fans from moaning!! :mad: and louder fans louder:D ...

Why dont you all set up a supporters club of ur own and the ask the powers that be to allocate a certain amount of tickets for one section to your club so ye can all sit together, on the subject of ticker tape bogroll etc the ticker tape is cool but bogroll is out as it is an offence to throw missiles on the field and it will result in the club being fined, also i think flagpoles are also on the banned list

Well that is the kinda plan, though I'm not convinced that it should fall within the supporter's club - I'd be more keen on an independent grouping.

Macy,

there was a gang of kids at the match last night who would be perfect for 'making noise' at the euro match, and they claim to know 8 songs, so half the work is done.

[SIZE=3]WHEN DE NIGHT................[/SIZE]
[COLOR=royalblue]Can We DO anything at all............... Could all guidelines be published soon cause it's gonna be a little more than Buckfast and chants..... seeing our Bald Truck Driving Friend is gone. [/COLOR] :confused:

I Know for certain that no drink in the ground is a euro rule - so it looks like it's back to the special coca cola ;)

they were selling beer at the match in latvia - could uefa dump them out of the intertoto over this? is our trip to holland back on?
or is the intertoto treated like a joke by everyone?
