CALLING ON EVERY IRELAND FAN IN THE WORLD TO BE IN THE AVIVA ON NOVEMBER 16 

- Create a hashtag and push it out on all social media channels as soon as the draw is made. #GoGreenNovember16
- Call on every Ireland fan across the world to send us your selfie in a green jersey
- Every picture sent in will be used to make one giant mosaic which would cover the West Stand so the players would see it when they enter the pitch
- It could be a simple message or image, the idea being that the fans' selfies are all in that mosaic
- When they send us their image, fans can also send a good luck message with the hashtag #GoGreenNovember16. All messages can then run on the bottom of the screens pre match and at half time

See this clip from something similar Juventus did a couple of years ago.

What we need: 
Media partner: I will work on that
FAI support: Working on it
Financial support: Anyone?
Fans: Check

Good idea lads, would be great if this was picked up on.ClapClapClap
I tried to get an idea of lighting the aviva green on matchdays, and sent out emails to a good lot of   the main sponsors last year but never got a word back, we should have the street lights with green bulbs and the bridge there at slatts should be lit green, this needs to go to the press to push things along.

First positive thread in a long long time

Maybe a list of ideas, and then see what is realistic etc

Most important is everyone in the ground early and keep the singing going from before the teams come out till the final whistle

As many buildings in the vicinity of the ground lit up in green, and as much bunting as possible for starters



I know nothing :-)

Gerk Mentions Financial Support, surely we all could voluntarily make a donation for the displays, set a target and the rest goes to YBIG affiliated Charities? 
I'm the gaffer whatever I say goes.

Didnt we have paper clappers for one of the playoff games(France 09) ?
If we could get a sponsor on board for them be a good addition.One put on every seat pregame.

Lads might be an idea to setup a group on Facebook or WhatsApp of people who are interested in helping to get this idea of the ground makes it easier to stay in contact about ideas etc

Great stuff lads just thinking back to the Poland game in Warsaw when they had the whole stadium decked out in red & white with what looked like plastic A4 sheets so that probably won't be that expensive to get sorted if 3 mobile came on board?

If you could attract a pre match atmosphere to that created in Croker for the playoff in 09 then that would be fantastic. The place was absolutely rocking that night before KO
