Rovers allocation of 400 despatched by post this morning.Terryland can only hold 3,000 with the far side closed down so people wou;d want to purchase their Tickets early as a bumper crowd is expected. Outlets will be announced after Friday nights game is over as we want to concentrate on each game as they come.
GUFCT if we surpassed the ticket allocation would the club not make allowances?Surely we could fit 3500-4000 in there?
no conor its the safety of fans that comes first and anymore than 3,500 at the moment would be dangerous.At the moment there are about 800 season ticket holders plus kids go free so there is no way there will be anymore tickets on sale.
conor its the ideal time now to impress the rest of galway, make it a big occasion encourage everyone to bring a flag, maybe we could have a theme night promoting football and the diverse cultures now living in Galway ( Brazil theme night and invite up the brazilians in gort ) for a spectacle that will bring the people back.
i think another jersey night it worked the last time.Its not the night for handing out free tickets as this game will sellout no problem.
i think the jersey night is a great idea. it'd be brilliant to do it again. the last time was a good success and it'd be good to see the stand awash with maroon because ya know the rovers fans will be wearing their colours
Ticket information now available at www.galwayunitedfc.ie.
alrite, lets have Jersey Day 2006 part 2 - ill start emailing the press like before, lets make this massive!Quote:

As for the TIFO flags they'll be there for the Rovers game but no poles im afraid.We will (hopefully) have a new bunch of flags and poles for other games this season.
However Terryland will be colourful Friday week.;)
I have been talking to a mate in zhivagos and he says that the tickets sales are going well and if the trend continues it should be a sell out, so make sure everybody here that isnt a season ticket holder gets their tickets good and early.
COMON UNITED
It is the best interest of GUFC that as many tickets as possible are sold this
week, so get down there and buy them before Friday.
to sell, it will still take a bit of promotion to sell it out, the last thing we want is empty seats. even still i can picture galwegians leaving it till the last minute. Tell everyone at your club,work,college about it and make sure it sells out. there is a rugby match the same night
The tables are turned on Connacht "rogby" now. Their attempt to muscle in
on our Friday night slot has failed, will fail, and will start to affect their attendances.
i will never go up to the sportsground again. the rode roughshod over utd despite the fact that utd have spent 4 years marketing friday night footie.
i remember our former manager walking in dublin to save connacht rugby and they conveniently try and muscle utd away from fridays
not sporting at all imo
GUFC is a community based club, Connacht rugby is an artifical entity
propped up by E40,000 per week funding from the IRFU.
They had the cheek to ask a member of our marketing group if our volunteer poster team would put up their posters instead of the promotions agency which normally is paid to put them up.
Computer says no, Tim nice but dim :D
that is unbelieveable :eek:Quote:

Have You Seen Galway United,
Have You Seen Them In Maroooon,
Have You Seen Galway United,
They're The Greatest Team I Know,
We Have Played Up In Sligo,
We Have Played In Dublin Too,
But The Greatest Day In History,
Was 1991, 91, 91, 91, 91, 91
should we organize a kick about between the two sets of fans before the big game?
We had one last time down in fox's.Residents in the Southern were most definitely entertained.A repeat of the same would be brillaint!Some crack down there last time!:)
