T O'Hare, you couldnt PM me with a template (basically a format) of how you's carried out your 'Last Man Standing' thing. Cheers.

Bad time to go looking about fundraising - but it has to be done - The Thousandaire thing is a good one but might be played out at this stage.

Simple, just stop paying the manager and get someone from the club to take the senior side.

TYP, but the young players coming through the ranks won't respect anyone from within the club, sure there is no one in the club who has won feck all

We've ran 3 or 4 Texas Hold 'Em nights (fairly profitbale - and doesn't take much to set up)

GH Can you pm me with details of how you organised your THE nights as we are looking at similar for our club?

TIA

We had managers and trainers from within our club taking our Senior team from 2002 to 2008 inclusive.

I would have thought that fundraising would be used for the benefit of the players and not to pay an outside manager.

This is for the player's benefit. It has nothing to do with the paying of the manager. Im just looking for ideas that we as a Senior team can utilise for ourselves to raise money to cover physio bills, training gear etc.

We received something similar from Ballyskeagh/Drumbo, which may be more suitable for those from the black north in these strong Euro times.  Think it's the one crowd that owns these tracks now??

Armagh made over £40,000 from a hospitality event at Down Royal races. The guy who runs these also combines clubs for a big joint event - was at one for Craigavon Eire Og last year - a fabulous day out as well as big money-spinner. Could be tricky in the present economic climate though.

We had a Casino night about a year ago - something different and AFAIK it made about 3.5 grand.There's a crowd that set the whole thing up for you.Also had a pig racing night - great craic
