If Braintree see it maybe they'll bring one out with Marks and Sparkes dressed as those fairies.

That is just brilliant: well done to The Shop and to everyone involved.
I'm looking forward to the end of season Shop sausage-shoving sequel: "This Time It's Personal"

The bit when he's sat under the tree pretending to be a present! Class!
Also that bit of acting from Hamish might be the most we ever get to see him feature for Town! ;)

The way the club have improved in the social media/promo work this year is nothing short of astounding. Seriously, the people behind this particular area have done a fantastic job and should really be commended for it.
This one, the behind the scenes vid, 12th man, the WW1 tribute, sticker book - all lightyears ahead of what came before. Hats off.

I agree, the social media presence is really well looked after. When you compare it with other teams, we are simply the best. For instance a lot of clubs only post team lineups and the half time scores online were as we keep fans communicated throughout the whole game and feel involved.

Amen to this.
Jack Johnson is the one responsible. He's done wonders for the club's image.

Couldn't agree more. After years of only negative PR coming out of the club, they're getting some really good publicity with their videos and interacting impressively with the fans as well. Keep it up Town.

If it went viral there could be a few quid in it for the club!
Nothing astronomical but every little helps :)

Just seen him in the new Ladbrokes advert too... Have to say I personally hate the whole 'LAD' culture thing that is going on with the betting companies, but big well done to Lloyd and hopefully a big 2015 for him (and gtfc)!!!

I fully agree with this, the club and media team have put out some fantastic videos. This latest one is superb, some subtle but great comedy moments and of course LJL part is played brilliantly, well done to all involved.
As mentioned above, we need a sausage/Jonnyboy video, that would be hilarious, LJL proving a point and getting 20 goals and a censored Jonnyboy honouring his part ;D

The Mirror, Mail and Daily Telegraph have already published online articles singing the praises of the video. Add to the full page article that Four Four Two posted regarding the sticker album, the commercial department can really give themselves a pat on the back for there work so far this season

Agreed. I thought the video was a good bit of fun and makes a real change from football clubs taking themselves too seriously. I bet they can't believe their luck that this video has started to get some widespread coverage in the national press :)

Absolutely. The club has had a lot of criticism in the past but here is something really positive and well done. Praise is definitely due.

He's in his 20s and understands how modern social media / digital marketing operates which explains why there's been a clear improvement by the club in those areas of late. Of course, they still let Dale Ladson record Mariners Player interviews meaning they're still often ruined by noisy sprinklers / gale-force winds / weird green-screen backgrounds (wtf was that all about on the FGR preview?!)
