Most tinpot thing I ever heard. (tinpot thread)

[Chris FGR]

I quite like the idea. A bit of off the wall thinking. But couldn't they have employed a graphic designer to make the cards look professional ? Those look shit.

I think they did lol.

It was a couple of lads in our marketing team who thought it up btw, not a bad bit of merch to have imo especially if this turns into our most successful season ever.

Lots of kids there playing it and meeting the players etc at the launch yesterday as well, the amount of stuff our club does in the community now is brilliant and is attracting a lot more families then we used to.

I'm not sure if this photo from a recent Guildford City game constitutes tinpot in its purest sense, but it deserves some form of recognition.

Dewey from Malcolm in the Middle scored for Bury today.

And why is he wearing a flip flop on the end of his... oh, it's his leg.

Borehamwood really are the gift that keep on giving, aren't they? - "In closing, we really do desperately need your support on the day, if we are going to spring an upset against Notts County. They have we’ve been informed already sold close to 500 tickets. Where in all honesty, our ticket sales have not just been slow, they have been almost embarrassing to date.."
The accompanying photo showing their fans in full voice is pretty pitiful too.

"So please find a way to buy your ticket early, please find a way to bring your family and friends down with you for a day out. Please know we’ll be doing our best to cause an upset and beat a professional club for the first time in our history and give you a real reason to raise the roof.. BUT WE NEED YOUR HELP!!!!!!"

Have they really never beaten a professional club?

 

[eightiesrobin]

You're not professional enough, it seems?

 

[Pablosammy]

Bloody hell, I'd well and truly blocked that out of my head!

I had to google it. I didn't realise how many games you lost at home last year.

Can someone confirm whether the double full-stop is now a thing?
Thanks..

This is just a minor detail. You've never read any of B'wood's website articles/press releases before, then?

 

[EnglishRed]

B'WOOD.. B'WOOD..

 

[Chris FGR]

They beat us 1-0 on the first day of the season. Given how good we are, and the fact we're the most professional and well run club in this league, that must surely go down as one of the best results in their history.

We're going to take like 700 and outnumber them, fucking hell.

The first paragraph of this is gold. "FA Cup fever has hit the Wood, albeit slowly."

You could take no one and still outnumber them though....

Probably Matt Rhead's from his time at the club.

Hipsters.

This has Notts County winning 6-0 all over it

 

[Pliny Harris]

Hipsters.

Infirm hipsters. The very worst kind.

 

[Aber gas]

Hipsters.

Hipsters in Mansfield? It's definitely over.
