balloons

[Pat O' Banton]

Was having a bit of a gripe about this in general, no balloons (except the ones myself and Lopez had in our section) and in truth as a massive set of fans we could have made it truely spectacular, ticker tape and all that would have worked perfectly. Is there any ways that we can get ideas out of this forum into the outside world?

I don't think there will be many travelling to Israel so how about something organised for the Faroes and Cyprus? Any ideas on this?

I think fog lamps and fog horns will be the order of the day in the Faroes

From past experience, a big green Aran jumper will be the order of the day in Cyprus.

had about 50ballons myself but most people around me just burst them straight away the little ****es ! beach balls should be given out at the airport to everyone travelling to cyprus or faroe like the carlsberg hats that were at the airport. Maybe 2fm or the like might sponsor it

Couldn't Carlsberg sponsor it?
It's a year away, we've bigger fish to fry before then.

Thought the Roman Candles looked great - did the owners get thrown out for this?

Big shirt, like the French and Swiss have is certainly a great idea. Think its worth having another go at the baloon idea however we would need to get in touch with Irish media and ask them to print/announce the idea. Also announcements can be made on other Irish wesites.

(incidently if the corperate Ireland could be persuaded to do anything to promote an atmosphere, tickertape could be launched from the Upper tier of the two stands ala Argentina '78 would always be a great start to a game, tell them its soomething to tell their mates in the golf club afterwards and they'll jump at the idea)

Better still, just get somone to print them out with Ryder Cup 2006(??Is that right. Don't follow the sport much) Ireland on them and that'll get the f*ckers interested.

I was a balloon sceptic but they looked great...fair play to all who brought them!
