Foot.ie Birthday Celebrations?

[MOD EDIT: Split from here, and ultimately from here.]


Better that than a rub of the relic (occasioned, no doubt, by the absence of a sex advice forum. Very remiss of you, Adam, not to act on that excellent suggestion. )

Seriously, though, I only stumbled across this site a couple of years ago and I was surprised to see that it's ten years old this year. Any celebrations planned to mark the event? On or offline?

This thread only exists by the skin of it's teeth, Dodge deleted it a while back but I was able to find it again in a backup! I actually thought Foot.ie was older so I never really thought about it, definitely open to suggestions. I can't afford freebies anyway, so ye can forget about free pints and sausage rolls.

what about a few free pints

Lets all meet up for fruity drinks wearing our foot t shirts. It will be like a geekier version of a star trek convention.

Does anyone else find this oddly sinister?

No Mr. Bond.

I'm not a nerd. I'm a post whore/post-whore. (Could a ucd fan help me here, am trying to say am a whore for posting on here not an ex prostitute or some one who mails naughty pictures in our postal system so which is grammatically correct of the above?) So I would be up for celebrating the 10th birthday.

I'm in showbusiness. It's my job to be repetitive. My job. My job. Repetitiveness is my job.

As long as I dont have to jump out of a cake or do anything more degrading than teaching you all how to drink proper jaggerbombers (with the vodka) then I'm up for it.

Happy birthday foot.ie and good work dahamsta!!

Thank you awec!

Not exactly celebrating the ten years, and more along the lines of marking the occasion, but what about a few special features between now and the rest of the year? Something like a series of Q&A with legends of the game (international, league of Ireland, journalist/broadcaster etc), or a few high profile guest bloggers? Or a photo of the month/year competition (a one-off, with shiny medals as prizes!) that best encapsulates football in Ireland.

Just to get the ball rolling...
