Delaney Out t-shirt protest

**pineapple stu** · 14/02/2007, 9:52 PM

We'll give it until Monday, the 19th, for any final alterations to the slogan. Then I'll sort getting the t-shirts up on the internet for purchase. I'll try and get as much publicity for it as possible too.

I'd have no idea how to go about organising a plane, but if anyone wants to take the running on that, I'll contribute a few bob anyway.

You criticise delaney, but like the hacks at the star demanding Kerr's replacement after the world cup qualifying campaign, what replacement have you got? Delaney isn't bad at his job, he's just made one mistake in appointing staunton, albeit a major mistake. Don't forget the dutch appointed van basten from just a little youth team experience (admittedly at ajax, but still relatively unproven) and the German's did fantastically under the completely untested Klinsmann, despite the media hounding he got up until the world cup started.

Any gripes you have with Delaney should be kept from the players, who need complete support.

He does more than just appoint a National manager

Eh?

Read my first post, where I list all his faults to date. And they're just the ones we know about.

On the thread I linked in in m first post, I suggested Brian Kerr as an ideal canidiate for head of the FAI.

The whole point of this method of protesting is to criticise Delaney while still supporting the team. I'll still be at the game, I'll still cheer the team, and I'll probably make the t-shirts green to help too.

Don't Make the T-shirts green whatever you do the'll blend into insignificance. White with Black lettering is a must. also has anyone thought of handing out leaflets to make joe soap Ireland soccer bandwagon jumper aware of just what the protest is about as I'd imagine that 70-80% of the attendance at croker porobably wont know who john delaney is never mind what his crimes are

**pineapple stu** · 19/02/2007, 6:20 PM

Good point.

**zenokelly** · 22/02/2007, 3:10 PM

we need to do as much as possible.

Plane seems the best idea I will dig into my pocket but the t-shirts are a great idea.

Any way of getting big banners into Croker security will be tight!!

**pineapple stu** · 22/02/2007, 6:48 PM

Hope to have these ready in the next couple of days.

Have changed design to white t-shirt with black text.

I honestly wouldn't have the vaguest notion how to organise a plane, but if anyone wats to take up the running, I'll donate a few bob.

**Schlooooomp** · 26/02/2007, 1:26 PM

A plane would be an amazing gesture, does anybody here have a pilot license and access to a small plane

I'm definitely up for a Delaney out t-shirt, make sure you post when we can order one

Posted now in a separate thread.

I know I saw it last night. The cat's out of the bag now. Wait for the FAI to arrange a no fly zone around Croker for the Wales match.

And strip searches to remove the t-shirts

I say we get in touch with these people and ask them to lead the protest.

She's in my class in college. I'll see if she's up for it!

delaney has made mistakes so did brian kerr. we gt rid of him and look what we got. u dn't throw out ur old shoes no matter how bad they are until u get a new better pair!!

he defo has made boboos but i think in the hysteeria he'll be gettin blamed for shergars robbery soon. he's not long in the job and he seems to be able to make a decision & get things done. not always correct decisions but we don't want to go back to the way things were.......its definitely getting better.

we need stability & reality.

Delaneys job should not be linked to the national team performance god or bad. If we had max points in the group at this stage i don't think it would reflect on JD & i don't believe the current situ reflects on him either.

He should be implementing developement structures around the country running the league etc if he ****s up there get him out.
