nothing in the showgrounds anyway, any students not from sligo would be gone back home for the weekend when we play anyway
I am now Sports Editor for the independent DIT student newspaper and I'm thinking about putting in a piece on the el for the students. Something along the lines of fixture lists, etc.
Are there any clubs that do more then student prices to entice students to games? I would be willing to advertise any such promotions.
All clubs should respond, there's a lot of people from the country in DIT and they tend to go home for the weekends.

We dont do student prices but the CITy supporters club do get reduced price tickets.
We have a student rate (just ask Sligoman ) and our drink is cheaper than the pubs in town. Will try and see if can talk the chairman into giving you a voucher type thingy for a Mondog or something too.
is it for the whole of DIT or just a particular building???
This time of year there seems to be plenty of rescheduled games and the likes of bray at home last night and UCD next Monday could be taken advantage of. I know the debate about UCD and when they play their games has been done but would they get a bigger crowd if they played their games say monday nights during the college year??
Thursdays didn't help. I don't see why Mondays would be any different, apart from being an even poxier day for a game. Changing the day of games isn't likely to help attendances any more than changing from 12 teams to 10 in the premier division and back again. Much more fundamental work is necessary first.
We're not arrogant, we're just better.

This year we hope to get even more students into UTD with a few ideas already in the pipeline....such as a society or Club.

The media department is based in Aungier Street and we are the ones producing it but it will be available in all the other campuses, AFAIK.
Weekday nights won't help at all. Most (night)clubs have student nights out and stuff and the option of going out, getting smashed and taking someone home with you is a lot more appetising than going to a football match and standing around in the freezing cold.

Superfrank, I'm 90% certain UCD have a free beer/food kind of promotion going on this Monday.
Isn't Monday our date with Noel Mooney, yeah?
UCD are letting first years in for free on Monday. Just need to bring their student card along with them.
No, Mooney's cancelled any direct involvement for the moment. He was originally going to help us with the Waterford game I think. Students will be given free entry to the Bray game this Friday.
The plan for Monday is to put up a marquee outside the ground and have free beer and/or food. How much of that will be allowed or will transpire remains to be seen. It depends on the college bureaucrats. I might be able to give more info tomorrow. Entry will also be free for Monday I imagine.
Just reading the poster for the Bray game (I brought some home to stick up before work tomorrow) and it says: Free admission upon production of your student card!!!! So it's not UCD or first year exclusive.
At City they don't do student prices. But I'm running the CITy Supporters Society and we're selling tickets for the Rovers game for €10 and CIT pay the other €5.
