Right Lads,

Just got email from flag company in Dublin, they can make flag 33ft x 13ft With Foot.ie On Tour printed on it for €1,610.00 take 8 days to make.

So if we are all interested in getting it made up, please post i'm in, and i suppose if we could 81 posters or members to pay €20.00 each we can have it made and ready for stuttgart. If no one is interested please leave post and we will forget about it, i'm willing to get it made and pay €20.00 please advise!!!!!

I'm in, how about all the names of those who pay are printed around the flag, with a 12" spot per name you would get 90 names @ €20 = €1800 which im sure they will do it for.

Im in and if you go down the name list there 4 of us!

**eirebhoy** · 19/07/2006, 8:46 PM

I'll put something towards it if it is going ahead.

**FarBeag** · 20/07/2006, 7:00 AM

Right all!!!

If you check the flag/banner thread you will see that we are trying to organise to get flag/banner made for all the european qualifier games.
The flag will have the Foot.ie logo on it and will say FOOT.IE ON TOUR
And will have all the names of people who donated in small around edge of flag. The cost is €1610.00 so will need 81 - 82 donations. Add name to list if you want to offer the €20.00 fee for the flag. Would need all money offered by latest end of july so we can order and have ready for 2/09/2006 germany -v- Ireland game.

**supasparx** · 20/07/2006, 3:28 PM

Casso, Have you thought anymore about Juniors idea of setting up a paypal account for the donations?

No never even seen his post will have a look into it. I suppose it would be the best way, but we still need at least 81 / 82 people to donate money first so when we get the names listed we can arrange pay pal account.

**supasparx** · 20/07/2006, 3:39 PM

Go on then stick me down!

**Loadedscream** · 20/07/2006, 4:10 PM

Me Too...paypal would be handy

**paul_oshea** · 20/07/2006, 4:41 PM

paypal take 3% remember that.

go on put me down as well on condition my name is BIGGER than everyone elses, as with most things about me

**dahamsta** · 20/07/2006, 4:58 PM

The fees are actually higher than that, PP will take 3.4% + 35c per transaction. If you decide to go that route, I'll cover the cost of the transactions, which will come to €82.74, and I'll probably throw a few quid more in. I have a PP account, if people have no objection to that being used, I'll set up a button for it.

Chat about it amongst yourselves there, let me know when ye come to a decision.

EDIT: For the record, unless someone I know well from Foot.ie is actually organising this, if I'm organising the money I'll only pay it direct to the manufacturer of the banner. I'm sure you can understand this is just a CYA measure.

If it's going through Paypal let me know what account as I'm about to withdraw my funds from Paypal and rarely use it anymore. Put me down for €40.

Won't that cost more?

Personally I think putting Foot.ie across the entire length of the flag might be overkill, and might get it confiscated as "advertising". Not saying you shouldn't, just offering an opinion.

Sounds like a good idea alright adam. No offence intended to casso36 but he's only been here a few weeks and he's already organising to €1800 off people to buy a flag.Some people might think it's a scam.
If I was going to pay something towards this I'd rather if it was going through someone with more of a back ground on the site.

I am assuming that Foot.ie are happy with the idea of the flag and on that basis i have no hesitation in transmitting the money to foot.ie by whatever means.

On a lighter note whoever is bringing the flag will have to buy a 2nd seat when travelling with Ryanair

The flag is computer printed in full colour and extra lettering etc doesnt cost any more. It would take them a couple of hours to cut and paste logos from this site or a few minutes if they were only to print the names. Well thats the way they print all our advertising material.

**dahamsta** · 20/07/2006, 11:22 PM

I don't doubt it's a good process, but I reckon a copied and pasted logo from here would look pretty horrid. Raster images don't scale up too well! I can arrange a vector image though, I'm sure I have one here somewhere.
