Clash of the fans longford 2008

**Massop 10** · 24/10/2008, 5:51 PM

As some of you already know Longford Town / Section O are taking on Athlone Town / iSTAT in a game that I have called "CLASH OF THE FANS". It is taking place in FLANCARE PARK on 2nd of November (sunday) with a 3pm kick-off. It is in aid of AWARE - a charity that helps people suffering from depression and people who are suicidal. It is only 10 euro admission and kids (u-12) are free. I hope that you will all support this great charity by coming along to cheer us on (or laugh at us, i don't care once you pay 10 quid). The two teams are ready as is the referee ! There is a cup for the winning team that was kindly sponsored by BEGLEYS PUB in KILLOE.I also have to thank LONGFORD TOWN F.C. for all the support they have given me and the use of Flancare Park. See you on the 2nd

**Pauro 76** · 25/10/2008, 10:19 AM

Well done Adrian on the organisation of the event, sounds like a great laugh, sorry I cant be there. Any chance of any pics being taken of the event?

**Massop 10** · 25/10/2008, 11:15 AM

Thanks Pauro, there should be a few good photos of it so you'll get a look at how it goes ! It's a shame you can't be there but you'll get your chance again hopfully.
Yeah I have a squad of 18 but please come along and support us (and bring as many as you can) cos we might need it and its for a good cause !

The iSTAT squad is in prime condition ... but not necessarily for football

Like the Section O squad we have a squad of about 18 "players" signed up
so hopefully we'll have a good turn out and bag our 2nd Cup of the season having
already claimed the eircom League Supporters Cup earlier in the year.

Please note ... our squad is assembled, not on ability, but availability

We will be lining out with the Headless Chicken formation

If we cant figure out our tactics, what hope do Longford have
