Is there any way the bid team can really push the Tassie bid with publicity etc to promote the game between Adelaide and Victory at York Park on July 26 as a show of strength of the support for A-League football in Tasmania and especially the Tasmania United bid. It would be great if there was a sea of red and yellow and green flags and banners in the main stand so we can get pics to publicise our bid on the various forums that many of us frequent.

Foxhawkposted at 9:16AM on 6th May, 2009 I agree. These are the sort of events that TUFC need to take advantage of. I do wonder though if the two clubs involved in this match would have some exclusivity clause preventing the promotion of other clubs at the event? I would be interested to hear what dmin's take is on this. tazziedevilposted at 1:43PM on 4th Jun, 2009 I'll be looking to the NTJSA to get behind the game and get as many kids and families involved. The more the kids see of the senior league, the more involved they will become. ntguyposted at 5:20AM on 8th Jun, 2009 I think that the qualification of the Socceroos for the World Cup next year will have a dramatic effect on the popularity of football in the state. Hopefully we will have a co-ordinated plan to lock TUFC and the World Cup together. Maybe TUFC fansites in both ends of the state to watch the games together would help our cause. Chuqposted at 4:19AM on 6th Jul, 2009 Hi guys, What do people think of a dedicated area set aside for TUFC supporters at York Park for this match, if it was available? Along with a banner or something similar? Do you think the visibility of the group would be enough to make it worthwhile?
ntguyposted at 5:23AM on 6th Jul, 2009 I think it would be a great idea. There would be 4 or 6 of my family there. Tas_U_1posted at 10:13AM on 6th Jul, 2009 A great idea lads! Maybe we should have signs for eveybody to hold up stating "We want our team!" just to show the FFA we mean business. tassihatterposted at 11:10AM on 6th Jul, 2009 Great ideas guy's ! I'm not in Tassie and won't be for the game but a BIG LOUD group together would make a wonderful specticle - go for it ! tufcposted at 11:54AM on 6th Jul, 2009 I'll be there. I've never been to York Park - is there a suitable section where we could all congregate? Chuqposted at 11:34PM on 6th Jul, 2009 Will be discussing it with their management today! ajax1995posted at 12:04AM on 7th Jul, 2009 Great ideas. On the Friday prior to the game, I can devote about 10 minutes on ABC radio if anyone would like to join in as a spokesperson to further promote the cause? I host a 30 minute local sports show on ABC Northern Tasmania (sorry, it doesn't go to Hobart) but it's at 4:30pm on a Friday and the listening audience is large at that time of the week. The show is purely to promote local sports people & events. Let me know if you think this could be worthwhile. Chuqposted at 3:52AM on 7th Jul, 2009 ajax, sounds fantastic! I'm sure if FFT or TUFC doesn't take you up on the offer, a couple of us will be able to :)
ajax1995posted at 4:08AM on 7th Jul, 2009 Had Martyn on a few months ago when the Sheikh was all the rage, so will approach him again, but I will advise and open it to supporters to call in perhaps also. Last year we had Aurelio Vidmar on pre-game and he was very complimentary on Tassie as a football destination and supporter base as crowds have been strong in the past. If we can get more A-League coaches, administrators, etc to promote us, it can only be goodd. ajax1995posted at 2:27AM on 7th Jul, 2009 As far as a suitable section is for seating, in the past the Melbourne Victory supporters have congregated on the Eastern Terrace. Probably a good spot to be on that side of the ground, as generally the television cameras are in the Gunns Stand which is directly on the opposite side of the ground. I'd suggest around the middle of the terrace and hopefully (with plenty of noise & colour) the cameras will focus on the group regularly. ntguyposted at 8:24AM on 7th Jul, 2009 Sorry, but I won't be sitting on the eastern side because it is too far away from the play with the pitch moved over to the Gunn's Stand side. ajax1995posted at 11:55AM on 7th Jul, 2009 I do agree totally, however, the reason for that suggestion (on this occasion) is to try and gain the best exposure for the betterment of showing our combined passion for having not only football played here, but that we are passionate about having our own "home team". tufcposted at 3:46PM on 7th Jul, 2009 Is this match even going to be televised? It's only a pre-season trial... tassihatterposted at 9:40PM on 7th Jul, 2009 No live tele cast, but WIN, Southern + and local ABC should carry a news story. With a group presence we should get some air time, plus maybe Examiner and Mercury. It all helps - go for it ! |

Perhaps we could use the day to officially launch the Tasmania United Supporters Club and have people signing up on the spot.
