im in on this one i think its a great oppurtunity for the rest of yee regular posters to put your money where your mouth is. incidently im very surprised that no one has posted a comment on the 30th anniversary celebrations to be held monday november 12th radisson hotel 7.30. this was advertied in last weeks program. me thinks that a lot of posters here dont buy the club program. any way its a great idea and a few savy individuals are hoping to raise 20 k for the club on this one. a group can book a table. just in case for thodse who have not heard abot it the special guests are 1977 league winning side, billy sinclare (manager) willie mc stay , paul fielding paul cook and current team. now thats what i call a bargain at e50 buffet meal included and disco. excuse spelling. i await comments. if we got 5 more fundraisers that would generate 20k we would have 100k at start of season. the ball is in your court lads go kick it.

You forgot to mention the disco is actually a 70's disco which makes it even classier

I definitely plan on going, would be great craic. Arrow, do you know how many people is to a table?

Don't think it mentioned it in programme.
