    If they do play it will be such a coup for Shams. Market the game properly and make a real experience of it and you'll get a rake of barstoolers wanting in, and suddenly wanting to be associated with Shamrock Rovers.

    Judging on the club's recent performances off the field, I have no doubt they'll make the most of the opportunity. The rest of the league is in real danger of getting left behind!

    They'll be down in their Man United tops cheering on Real probably and then go back down the pub telling how they saw Real Madrid play.

    Wow. The begrudgery and negativity from some of the "LOI fans" here could never be topped by even the most ardent barstooler. Meanwhile, Rovers and Tallaght continue to show the rest how it can and should be done.
    Together with all our hearts.

    Nick Leeson from Galway Utd and Roche from Rovers were on a Business show on the radio this morning.Roche bascially said they cannot afford to keep Gary Twigg.He will go for a decent six figures id say.

    He said no such thing you clown. What he did say was if a player is out of contract and another club offers him more money Rovers won't be outbidding the other clubs offering silly money. Twigg is on a three year contract so please explain how we cannot afford to keep him?

    Listen for yourselves ... Rovers bit is the 2nd half

    http://www.rte.ie/podcasts/2009/pc/p...hebusiness.mp3

    Twiggs contract was never discussed as suggested.

    Interview mentioned a 1.4 million projected turnover and we are currently 10% under the 65% rule

    Who's organising this though? Seen on another forum thats its platinum one? And they will pay the appearance fee for Madrid and they will get the money from the gate receipts and chose how much to charge and that the only benefit for Shams will be the extra publicity, chance to attract new fans from that game and then the profit from merchandise sales at the game.

    Sorry if this has been explained already.

    Well platinum will have to pay a fee to Rovers too. More likely is that they'll give them a percentage of the gate.

    For the Barcelona games in Scotland the past few years, Platinum have given a percentage after all costs were met.

    To be fair it would be a great coup for Rovers (and a welcome few bob). presumably it could/would be co ordinated with opening of far side of the ground. Very good publicity for hoops and LOI so cant see a down side.

    Platinum will probobly pocket most of the cash but the game would still be beneficial for both the club and the League.
