Barking Mad !!

Lads,

Cork City FC are having a race night .... Thursday 21st Oct in the dog track.

To sponsor a dog it is �60 and �100 for two !!

Here is the plan .... The following all sponsor a dog and we'll let them off and see who wins !!

CorkCityFC.ie (confirmed)
TheGaff.biz (confirmed)
FourFiveOne.net (confirmed)
foot.ie
ShedEnd.com
PRoC.com

What we want is everyone to chip in a tenner (it would be good to have three dogs from foot.ie, in different races) and the winner will then obviously get the bragging rights, remember ... it's all about winning !!

Whos in ??
Who is up for it ??

You can pay anyway you want, credit card, bank acc. or cash !!

Just PM of throw you name down here ....

Yeah lads, it's up to everyone to get involved in this. It's a way of supporting the club financially and at the same time making the actual night itself more interesting and fun.
If everyone here chips in a tenner it would be great. We want to get as many dogs as possible sponsored by foot.ie.

Myself and A face will co-ordinate it so you can give us the money in person at the match on Monday if you want or it would be even better if you put the money in the account and put your name with the lodgement.
I'll post bank acc details here later.

Yup I'll throw a tenner at it too.

Also keep an eye out for Shed End John's brother at the track. Tipster supreme

Right so folks, I've set up an account for this....

Account number: 24358541
Sort code: 90-96-95

The account is with Bank of Ireland

If you want to take part in this you can lodge your tenner in that account and make sure you put your name with the lodgement so we know who's donating and who's not!
If you don't get a chance to put it in the bank, you can give it to either myself or A face at Monday's game.

Don't the club have a full-time commercial manager these days to raise money for stuff like this from businesses? Why should it always be the fans who are asked to put their hands in their pockets? We pay through the gate, let companies cough up for things like this.

I think you are missing the point entirely Stadler. Its meant to be a fun night out, while at the same time, you just so happen to be helping the club.

It is these type of nights which raises the public profile of the club, which in turn makes it look like a far more realistic and viable area for commercial investment.

Bang on there Gary ..... Stadler .... no being funny, but if things like this didn't happen and we did as you suggest .... nothing would happen, i dunno ... its just logic. You can either work it out or you cant, theres not alot more i can say !!

Are you up for it or not fella .... you might even enjoy yourself as Gary said, it is for a laugh !! ;)

As Gary said you're missing the point.
Yes the club does have a full time commercial manager and he's doing a very good job, putting a lot of time and effort into it. However, the more help he gets the more money is there for the club and if the fans (those who love the club) don't help him then who will??
Get involved man, you'll be helping the club and you might just enjoy the night itself aswell!

Two 2005 gold season tickets on offer for:

1) one to the person with the highest euro value confirmed sponsorship

2) one to the person with the largest number of confirmed sponsorship submissions.

So do we take it that some lads here are registered and by gaining as many people from foot.ie as possible, they can get a gold season ticket????

I don't know where you got that from.... there's no season tickets or anything else on offer.
It's just a group of fans that are helping the club out with a few things.

Get you're money into the account and support the Rebel Army!

What's a " gold season ticket" that they are offering? Is there a difference between that and an ordinary season ticket?????

To be honest if someone goes to the trouble of setting up a bank account to collect money and raises enough to win a season ticket I'd say best of luck to them.

Ahh ... NO .... While the foot.ie users all throwing a tenner is very welcome, i dont think it will match the people would are selling the talbes for ten and the advertising hoardings etc. and all that goes with. They are taking in alot more money than just us getting a race or two together.

Even so nice one sham, you'd hardly begrudge them though would ya ??

I dunno, perhaps everyone knows ye!! ;)

Point taken ... and its a good one .... Lads, if any one is ify (spelling??) about lodging the money, then there is no problem just arrange to meet us (Monday would be ideal, as you'd get to meet everyone on the committee if need be .. not just us) in person. There is no problem.

i dont have any problem putting the money in the account for ye.
i dont know ye personally but enough people on here and in the club do so its obvious ye're not trying to pull a fast one and ye do appear to be quite trustworthy so i will lodge a tenner if i get a chance next week. its all for the good of the club like.
