    Interesting angle. It'll jsut **** off the type of people who would never come to our games anyway, and thats no bad thing

    Kop out, what would have grabbed the people attention way more and got Pats headlines would be putting the name Celtic there as well.

    Regardless i can't see it working but best of luck.

    Simple and to the point. Nice one, though it might tick off people who support both Man U & St. Pats

    In what terms? may get noticed by some, may help re-inforce floating Pats fans. The €10 tickets will help

    Its not supposed to make man utd fans pack it in and follow Pats.

    Will attract attention due to shock nature but can't see it attracting new supporters. Maybe if put Celtic in front of a union jack...

    has a poster ever attracted a new fan to a game? Its not about getting new fans, its about getting lapsed pats fans etc


    Maybe if put Celtic in front of a union jack...

    Worth a try - i'm printing it & putting it up in work

    €10 euro is working too - i'd normally have 1-2 coming with me - looks like at least 5 of us, maybe more - must get my tickets before theyre gone!

    Love it (except for the Pat's bit, of course, and I would have put Celtic in there too).
    edit: and Sunderland.

    Classic.

    Hopefully all three teams go through and take their mind of the league while we swoop in quietly.

    Is the Pats game on TV?
    So if you think Bohs are big read this. http://www.astronomy.ie/perpespective.html

    Brillient advert by st.pats! I like the idea but I do think they should focus on their own club rather than enraging the aul barstoolers...

    I think the actual poster won't get many extra through the gate (Price probably will), i always think it is better concentrate on the positives from your own club i.e. Fahy, Quigley, Kirby etc etc who are all quality players than trying to show up clubs from another country. But as i said i hope it works i think you should get a good gate with the €10 in.

    I should point out that its one of the poster being considered by the club. The one they're probably going with isn't as striking (available at www.stpatsfc.com)

    Jaysis, that's a big tenner Colm Meaney has. I want one of those!

    BTW, would I be ok to buy a ticket on the night for this game? Any chance of it selling out?

    Close to 2,000 sold already. Capacity is limited to less than 3,000 in Richmond for UEFA games and once promotions, delegates, sponsors etc are taken care of there'll only be about 2,700 tickets on sale.

    I'd get one this week if I was you!
