Now I appreciate this is entitled in a style normally only seen on dodgy emails for ***** enlargement or Nigerian princes offering a billion pounds but I have a foolproof way to get more punters through the gate.

Sign a Polish player, he doesn't need to be very good or even feature that much but the polish community in Inverness is huge and would flock to watch one of their own playing.

The polish Sunday league team in Inverness take 30 fans to all their games that's a fifth of our attendance today.

Having come up with such genius I shall now sit back and await my OBE for services to football.

Zibi the Hibee...

There is no feckin way that I am going to jump up and down in the middle of feckin flares !!

We could indeed do with a Klose or a Podolski at the moment ;-)

not sure about your math in relation to 2000+ but I can see it working to a degree!

Thats not a bad idea,  how much would a polish international cost. We could also play  Inverness lads  but Im not sure if that  would pull in any more fans

dont see the polish community in the aberdeen area rushing up to huntly to watch Łukasz Stasiak .

but fair play for the idea,should not rule anything out if it brings in more support for the team

Nah, they have switched to German nationality for glory hunting

But Blaszczykowski or Lewandowski would suffice, or even a defender like Pisczek

Not sure bout the price and wages but that young polish mid for rangers that they just released?

Somehow i think Lewandowski is a tad out of our price range, but the logic behind it is fair enough

Yeah Huntly have 2 polish guys , Stasiak and Klecjykowski, not sure how good options

Loved CC's comments about Thistle getting better support in the Highland league - different era in many respects Charlie. And then he mentioned Caley taking 5,500 to Perth - but he forgot as LSM commented that 5200 of them must have got lost on the way back.

Only one polish guy can bring in 2,000+ fans and hes a kn*b





Artur Boruc

Not sure if they are just within our budget and we don't need a keeper really but Zibi Malkowski and Bartosz Bialkowski

And for an oufielder that Adrian Mrowiec who left hearts for germany!

As Poles and other Eastern Europeans prefer to send their money home to relatives I can't see them forking out £26+ for a game at the TCS.

Ok - maybe I would.

This post has had it's desired affect, bit tongue in cheek, bit of outside the box thinking.

But yet again one of these 'hooligans' brings up the subject of pyrotechnics. Our poor club will be banned by Uefa for life if this anarchy continues.....

 I think it would be worth it just for the entertainment value of the stadium announcer (and Chick Young) trying to pronounce names such as Jędrzejczyk  and Rzeźniczak.

 

Some Pole dancing as half time entertainment whilst we're at it might bring in a few more.

Wiclewczniew Jecyjsyliak, Macej Kucherolowski, Luka Namryjinoviniak

isnt this what football clubs did about 20 years ago

 

football fans arent that stupid

Although it's not the freshest idea in the box, still a decent one. Although it's probably far easier for them being so big but isn't it what Premier League clubs do in order to get a foothold in countries afar and build a new Asian fanbase. You could to an extent claim Celtic played that game with a few choice players? Probably not purely on fanbase terms but it certainly helped them merchandise wise.

Yeah, it's a loose approxamation and comparison but general idea is there. Could be worth a try just tapping into the Polish population and hand out flyers ect. Into the Polish shops, ofcourse in their language, letting them know they can play a footballing related part our club and our community.

I for one would be happy to knock up some mock media and see what the club thought.

What about a Chinese or and Italian or an Indian or a Thai or a Romany Gypsy.

If you need some merchandising stuff in German, I'm happy to translate as it's my native tongue.

Before we target minorities like the Poles etc, remember there's an untapped market of tens of thousands of Invernessians who've never been to TCS either.
