Boardeaux on TV - March 7th St Colmcille's 11.30

_blank_

So lads,

There is going to be a program featuring Boards.ie on RTE (Capital D is the name of it, anyone ever heard of it?) in the coming months, and they want to film the team playing a match

Now, they'd prefer to do it on a Saturday, so they have time afterwards to get a few lads into a pub and have a chat to them about the team. Also, it's better for them light-wise if it's an afternoon game.

I've just had lunch with the Director, and I said I'd firstly try to organise a 11-A-Side featuring the squad vs squad (with a few more bodies) for a Saturday in the next few weeks.

This weekend (14th) is too short notice, and I think he's not free the weekend afterwards (21st), so I think the best dates to aim for are

Sat 28th Feb
Sat 7th March
Sat 14th March

Can we also discuss potential venues?

Otherwise, he said he'd try to get out to a league match, but it's fairly awkward.

He definitely wants lads in the pub afterwards to chat about the team, so the more the merrier there I suppose.

So, please let me know if you are available to play on any, or all of those dates.

No fiffy-faffy "if it was at 2 on the first one, or four on the second one then no" please, I need to let this guy know asap.

Thanks lads

Des

wicked!!!!


just a few things to bare in mind. me, ciaran play on sats and im sure more do like dave etc. mark works sats also.How about a Sunday?

and i think u have the dates wrong des!!

Saturday the 7th and Saturday the 14th. United v liverpool is on the 14th so thats me out.

how about Saturday the 7th or Sunday the 8th??? that dates would suit me anyway.

Also, bare in Mind that we will have league matches now rescheduled and that

are we going to get a crowd out to watch this? i can round up a possy anyway!

venue - we play in wesley on sats on grass and the pitch is generally free.

homerjay2005

and theres 3 pubs near wesley also. a sunday evening would be best i think...remember all the hassles we have had organising games on saturdays before.

100% Astro, I'm not chancing a mudbath ruining my TV appearance, not for nobody.

You will buy your own drinks, unless as stated above, it takes place on the anniversary of your birth, in which case I shall purchase one pint of your favourite tipple for you.

homerjay2005

Call Me Jimmy

Hah great stuff lads! I'm praying for just one shot of a fresh-air which includes the unfortunate's 'OH-CRAP-I'M-ON-DE-TELE-(HI MOM!!!11)' face.

John Mason

Des, the 28th doesnt suit you

wolfenstein

Sounds class. I can do sat 7th or 14th of march, feb doesn't really suit tho. A bit of TV exposure might bring the Traps attention to the untapped pool of talent that is the Astroleague too.

Actually I don't think I can do the 7th, sure we'll leave it to the boss man

thelepo

I'm perenially free, so count me in. Remember to vogue

emc2

great stuff, I think I free for all 3 saturdays....

FrankGrimes

Can we make sure we play this against a bunch of pure muck footballers that look like they should be good but aren't.....like an American Football team or something?

I'm usually free on Saturdays so should be able to play perform whenever.

Baggly

Im in for whenever. Gonna have to book the fake tan, 70's wig and edgar davids sun glasses.

pvt.joker

I could come out of exile also for this one if bodies are needed. (either of the dates)

LeixlipRed

I've just joined a Saturday team (in your league Ed btw ) but I'll be there.

Baggly

Oh yeah, ive prob just joined the same Sat team :P Ill still be there tho. Boardeaux comes first always

WeAreShels

I'll be there if it doesn't clash with a match. What team did you join LR? Think our 2nds are in that division.

LeixlipRed

Chapelizod. Trained with them last night. They normally train Wednesdays so fairly handy. Some good players but seem to be lacking in fitness. They're 2nd from bottom :eek:

LeixlipRed

Is your team not called Glasnevin FC Dave? They're not in that league if so.

Nunu

Sat 28th Feb - YES
Sat 7th March - YES (preferred date because need to give work as much notice as possible when I need a Saturday off)
Sat 14th March - NO

Draupnir

Cheers for the message Des, I am free every Saturday so if you guys need numbers I'd love to play, obviously if you have enough with the current squad I understand.
