You can never beat a bit of cross-promotion

The pic above was taken just before the recent Eircom League game between UCD and Drogheda Utd, which UCD won 1-0. We used the event for two purposes. Firstly to present Alan Mahon (who is pictured with me) with an award to mark his passing the 250 league appearance mark for UCD.

The ulterior motive was of course to promote the hell out of this campaign. UCD's next home game is against Bohemians on Hallowe'en. By that stage I'll already be in the air for New York but John will be there, where he'll likely still be hobbling a bit after doing the Dublin City Marathon the previous Monday.

At that Bohemians game we'll be selling the last ever regular edition of STIG. Due to constraints on the producers we simply won't have time to make it regularly from now on, however there will still be occasional issues released. All funds, not just profits we mean all funds, from the sale of that issue will go towards the campaign. It's a great way for the league's longest running and most prolific fanzine to bow out of regular publication.
