Hold up there outside-in or inside out -what ever.
I was not knocking the wise-heads (turn of expression) I was merely pointing out that yes, we all know the club needs the money, but it will still need it on July 17th and it will need it the July after that etc, so wouldnt it make more sense to use the occassion to make more than one pay day. Yes I do believe that Sunderland can help to bring people back inside the gates. I actually believe that Ramblers will be up for giving a good show on the night and could impress people to come back again. That might not happen if its in Cork. All credit to those who swung the Sunderland game, particularly the Chairman and John Mansworth, its a pity its now to be played out of town (just heard its official). Maybe the next one (celtic) might be at home.
I'm back into my box now, you can take over on your soap box!
it has to be the cross, as with the north terrrace out of commision colemans is reduced to a mere 2000, ticket will also be sold inside the ground, no sullivan around to **** this one up,
"inside out" good one how did u come up wit dat one:rolleyes:Quote:

Pros and Cons for both arguements lads. Personally I'd have preferred that it was played in Cobh 'cause now I'm actually gonna have to travel to an away game, however, from a financial perspective, it makes absolute sense to have it played at the X.
The selling of the tickets though needs to be handled extremely well in order for Ramblers to this time capatilise on an income generation opportunity that was sadly missed out on for the Manure game a couple of years ago. I don't know that ins and outs of this from a legal point of view, but it may not be permissible to force people to pay entry into the ground so they can buy a ticket for another game and maybe that's what happened last time.
Na'h not a hope. I'm like Bosco - keep poping up. I reckon you're old enough to remember him outside-in, remember that little fella with the bright red cheeks. They say it was from a hand being stuck up his arse all day.
On a serious note, the venue situation for the Sunderland game is already decided so lets make the most of it and hope it lives up to all we wish for the club.
There is no problem with doing that. Galway did it last season for the Sunderland visit on the basis of one ticket per paid entry. Tickets were sold at half time. Its your match if people want to watch Sunderland let them come to a gameQuote:

I'm already resigned to the game being played at the Cross now, but for those saying it had to be there because of the construction of the north stand, well I have a sneaky feeling we wont see any action there until well after July. Thats all irrelevant now, lets hope they will fill the cross and maybe-just maybe, some will continue to follow them back to Colman's Pk later.
Redshanks by your comments on here so far, you seem to have alot of inside information, if your on the commitee, or a committee or just involved in the club in some manner, its not a good idea to be leaking internal information on a public forum.
i think the idea of forcing people to pay into a game whilst generates revenue could also generate bad feeling, why not give priority to people who can produce ticket stubs from lets say the next two home games.This way you are not forcing people into one game to get tickets which IMO would be a logistical nightmare.
It may not be right depending on which way you look at it and I mentioned earlier about it being permissible or not, but that's not for me to decide. Everyone can't always be pleased and no matter what the committee decide to do, someone will find fault with it anyway. If they elect to sell the tickets inside and capatilise on the revenue generation from that system, some will whinge that it's not fair, whereas if they do like they did for the United game then some will whinge about lost opportunities.
I'd say that the Sunderland tickets should be made available first and foremost to season Ticket holders and then to those paying entry to the last home game before the Sunderland date, that being at home to Pats on Sat July 12th. When buying your ticket for the Pats game you should then be affoarded the opportunity to purchase two Sunderland tickets. Technically this is selling the tickets outside of the ground as you'd not have passed the turnstyles at that stage.
Pats game will be too late. I think ticket sales should go on sale ASAP. Also agree with you season ticket holders should be given first option, and take as many as you want.
if they really want tickets make them pay into game then sell them, we all talk of revenue generators so why look a gift horse in mouth
tickets will be onsale inside the ground, this isnt the sully commitee anymore lads, ram fans have first dibs, so thereofre tickets must be sold inside the ground
100% agreedQuote:
