This apart from goal nets are regulated and rattles are banned are they not?


Well there's this sort -

or this -

They appear to be about 6 inches long so I guess they are almost invisible.


or you can even get plastic ones -

which could hardly be classed as offensive weapons.

Quoted from HackneyHaddock
I LOVE the idea of a Retro theme at BP as it shouldn't have the require people buying loads of new stuff if they didn't want to (though it would be good to shift a few hundred bar scarves) and it's something the club can really market well using things like the old Bygones footage we had on here from earlier in the week.  The club could also tie it in with the town's fishing heritage and release some old pictures to get people thinking.

There's a huge trend at the moment for dressing up in period costume or themed outfits for events with things like Secret Cinema, Forties re-enactment clubs and 80s themed weekends, so it could be something that gets people excited.

Just a few ideas:

-  Rattles
-  Bar scarves
-  False moustaches
-  Big baggy flat caps
-  Banners made from bedsheets ("GTFC are Ace" or other such 70s type lingo)
-  Brass band on the pitch
-  Bog-roll streamers
-  Ticker tape
-  Replace the goal nets with with super-heavy fine-gauge black fishing net and old-style triangle stanchions for the game.
-  Play old music for the day
-  Up the Mariners sing-a-long
-  Old footage on the big screen

I'm getting carried away here on a dull Sunday afternoon if you hadn't noticed....


Was getting really excited reading all those. Perhaps we could sub title it 50 Shades of (Stuart) Gray?



No attempt at ethical or social seduction can eradicate from my heart a deep burning hatred of the Tory party. So far as I'm concerned they're lower than vermin. Aneurin Bevan.

I've posted it on Facebook and twitter, seems to be a hit with fans. So I can see this happening. Going to be awesome, especially if / when we beat Chester next weekend.

Good idea for me. Scarves and singing creates a positive energy which equals more likelihood of better performances from the players

Indeed, but it's being past around quite a bit, so it's all good.  

We have 2 weeks, so there's plenty of time to promote it.
