I think we just need to stick to simple themes that were sorted weeks ago. Hi viz at Alferton and suit & Boot at Southport.
Should we play Barnet in play off then that should be inflatables and if FGR then inflatables plus Hi viz.

It's fun to learn what happens at other clubs, but I also agree with others who would like us to keep it original, which is what has worked well so far.

I think for now, just keep the scarves at the park thing going and try to turn that into some sort of pre-match ritual/routine.  From then on, perhaps the club could look at having an annual vintage/retro day, where the club celebrates the heritage of the town, remembers fans no longer with us, and rekindles memories.  That could work well.

Don't get me wrong, I've nothing but admiration for these young lads. They're the absolute balderdash and have made aways more fun than I've had for years.

It's the recent spate of suggestions on here that aren't much cop.

I agree. They've done an amazing job at improving the atmosphere away from home. It would be great to hear a few more classic Town songs and maybe some original new ones.

The old trawlermen used to go to sea in a suit and tie and flat cap, and they'd dock in the same gear - who needs a bowler hat!

And to the point well made - why be like everyone else. Black and White scarves, Harry Haddocks and 'Sing when we're fishing!' will do nicely!


Its hard enough remembering my opinions without remembering my reasons for them!
Brisbane - beautiful one day and perfect the next! UTM!!!

Why don't we just start playing "you'll never walk alone", taking celery to matches and singing "no-one likes us"?



I remember back in the late 80's especially, we used to sing the 1st and 3rd of these in the ponny (les?) mate.

Yeah defintely but the "You'll Never Walk Alone" was nothing like the way the Liverpool fans sing it. It was like a disjointed version of the song. "You'll Nev---er Walk----Alone, You'll Nev--er Walk---Al--one.

If that makes sense.
