JUST ASK you friends, colleagues, bretheren to come, it's the football, the atmosphere and the people already at the match that count.

More power to your elbow, CG.
I also think Stanley's involvement with primary schools is a good idea to generate support. Pester power has made McDonalds and Disney what they are; lots of successful businesses know that the way to a parent's pocket is through their children.
Visiting secondary schools may be too late -they'll either be too cool to be impressed by anyone or already wearing Barca shirts.
But a few visits to the 20+ local primary schools might get the kids wanting to go, especially for a quid - and most will then bring at least one parent.
