OK people .... We have lined up another Q&A session and this time the members will be invited to compose questions for Richard Sadlier - The ex. St Patricks Athletic CEO, who had started out his playing career with Leicester Celtic and Belvedere FC in Dublin before moving across the water to join Millwall F.C..
Richard formed a strike force with Robbie Keane at the FIFA World Youth Championship finals in Nigeria in 1999 and while at Millwall as a striker, Richard scored 34 goals in 103 starts.
You will have a week to compose your questions below and we'll pass them onto Richard, then he'll send back his answers and we'll post them up on the blog.
