    Didn't Derry City have a draw for an apartment in the last couple of years?

    I presume it was donated to the club.

    Feigning upcoming bankruptcy and using political contacts to arrange a friendly with a world famous club like Barcelona alos seems like a good wheeze

    Only joking by the way.
    I'm what? I'm ants at a picnic?

    A lot of clubs over here, Southend being one example, have a draw with a squad number for the season as a prize.

    The winner is an officially registered for the club with the, Football League with squad number, gets his pen-pic in the programme along with the 'rest' of the squad (not just for home matches!) for the season.

    I reckon you could sell quite a few tickets for that at €5 a go!

    Well for €500 you can arrange a game in Dalymount for your club. My team (check sig) are playing Finglas next Tuesday in Dalyer. It's a great incentive which also includes a dvd of the game. It works out at just €15 a head (both teams splitting the cost)!!

    So if anyone is missing winter football and the games around the christmas period come on down. Kick off is at 4 and entry is free!!

    So that game was arranged for today but it never happened

    We were looking forward to this match for the past number of weeks now!! We arrived at Dayler at 2:30 (for a 4:00 KO ) to be told that the game was off...........................the reason!!

    Well supposedly the goal posts were taken down on Christmas Eve and listen to this .................................................











    The crossbars have gone missing - so to the Bohs fans next season

    Where's your crossbars gone, where's your crossbars gone!!

    i came up with an idea last eyar for raising cash for Rovers.
    at the end of the season auction off the first team jerseys, and have the players present the shirts to winners of the bids and photograph the presentation.
    over the last 2 seasons this has raised about E8,000 for Rovers

    But legally dont they have the right to give the club a good kick in the áss and get them to cop on. How organised are the shareholders ? What do they actually have to contribute, i know they have the right to do so but when given the right ... what can they actually bring to the table so to speak ?
    The SFAI are the governing body for grassroots football in Ireland, not the FAI. Its success or the lack of is all down to them.
