Friday, November 21st: A Stephen Kenny / Alan Mathews managed Longford Town Legends XI vs Longford Town XI.
If we don't get a really good crowd for this, then the Longford general public are all just c.unts
Agreed, I will be in attendance I would not miss this for the world. Sean was great for us and a real tragedy that his career was cut so short.
We still all dream of a team of Sean Pruntys.
I hope to see a good crowd.
Absolutely agree we should have a big crowd or they're a disgrace. Hopefully we can push ticket sales in advance so he's guaranteed a proper send off. Should be a good night.
If anyone has any pictures of sean in action for us (large images pref) kindly drop me a pm.
Good idea. I might not be able to attend but would be ****ed off if I couldn't support this.Quote:

I'm sure if you drop him a line or ask him at the next game, he'll let you use it!.
Too far from Holles Street for me to make it down at that date, but would like contribute, so ticket sales in advance of the day would be a great idea.Quote:

Thanks Longfordian, came across a good one as well. Will give them a ring about getting the original. Hopefully it will work out well for what I am planning :)
Tickets for this are now on sale through Ticketmaster
http://www.ticketmaster.ie/event/180...norcatid=10004
I'm sure they'll be available elsewhere closer to the date but if anyone can't make it to Longford at any stage that may be of assistance.
Hopefully they will be available from the club as well, ticketmasters 6:35 handling charge on tickets is a lot.
I'm sure they will, didn't actually notice that there was a handling charge. I see other EL games advertised there, do they all have handling charges? Who'd be bothered paying that?. I don't intend purchasing off ticketmaster if I can avoid it but just in case some people had no other means of getting a ticket and wanted to buy one I said I'd put it up.
Edit: Just checked that out, there's a €2.95 service charge for tickets.
Oh aye it is very handy for those who cannot make the event but would like to contribute. I know they charge 6:35 on tickets for gigs maybe it is less for games hopefully.
Yep, it says €2.95 service charge for this, I presume it's the same for all games. Better than €6.35 anyhow.
How'd it go? Much of a turnout?

Should be a great night. Hope the people come out.
just looked at the website.. very good job what a squad of 44! lads im doin a piece on sean prunty for the match program can ye all send me a pm of what is your favourite memory of seanie is so that i can collate the best of them... thanks
A great array of great songs can get an airing looking at that list...
have to agree with Macy looking at that List, has someone collated every town player in the last 10 years and stuck them on a list ....
funny was just thinking Darragh Sheridan would do a fine job in the 1st Division
I will try and find space in out next two match programmes to promote it as well
I will use the Tardelli piece of the link above as the article or is their another piece that someone has that could be used. Would need it for today at 4pm at the latest. Also a pic of Sean would be useful
email info@athlonetownfc.ie
If you contact Ray Donlon he should have some. www.raydonlon.comQuote:

Yeah Darragh would have done a job in his day but his knee is gone I think and he retired when he left us.Quote:

There's a few in the gallery on the ltfc.ie site after a quick look. I'm sure if you credit the source, Ray Donlon, you could use them.
Just thought I'd put up this interview with Sean which shows how much he needs the testimonial to be supported as it should be. He doesn't have much to say that's complimentary about Drogheda either.

Any chance of a "One F in Longford" special edition? Or maybe one put together with old ones all regarding Prunty?Quote:

I am absolutely gutted I cant make it. That will be a legendary moment in the life of any LTFC fan. I hope all the old favourites get an airing. And cant believe Tardelli is playing at the Flansiro! I hope the mad fella scores!
Hadn't realised that Drogheda were being absolute tossers about it. Like he says, what goes around comes around. My initial reaction after reading that is to hope they're the first club not to come out of examinership.
Printable poster available here if anyone can think of good places to put them up :

Swedish internationals Johan Mjallby and Pontus Kamark (I'd forgotten about him, class name!) are lining out for The Town in this one. Fair play to them for coming over.

Johan Mjallby, what a player!
Should be a good game I'd say.
