    The club needs a huge crowd for Friday Nights Game

    with 3 of our next 4 league games being away its vital that we get 2,000 plus for the Bohs Game. The club and supporters need to promote this game as if our lives depended on it. There are a number of ideas (Jersey Day,Text Campaign,Discounted Tickets for large groups and Road Signs) but the club has to go to the local media and stress the importance of filling terryland on friday to ensure the short term future of the club. The last 3 games have averaged less than 1000 paying customers so the club has to be hurting.

    If you havent got anything positive or new ideas to post dont bother coming on knocking the club or people who are trying to be proactive.

    I think we will.

    We might just get that crowd.ill get a couple of posters.Its too early to text GBFM now obviously but we can blitz them with texts on Wednesday,Thursday and Friday.One huge factor of course about crowd size which we have no control over is if theres another evening of monsoon conditions next friday in Galway.We can get 2000 ppl in terryland though.

    The silence is sad people. If we dont get 2000 plus on friday it will leave the club in a precarious position with only one game at home next month (unless we get a home draw in the cup).

    Great Terry if everyone else could bring 4 extra we would get up to 3000.Wishful thinking I know but you have to start somewhere.
