Do you have some official position at York City which entitles you to use the expression "we", and infer that you speak for all of them, or are you just full of sh!t?


That's nice AFF! I can tell that your name isn't a derivative of AFF-ectionate!

I am a shareholder of my club so yes, I do have an official capacity at York City. More importantly, I've been a supporter for 26 years through thin and thin!

Things seem to have gone wrong at St Albans City recently. I do hope you can turn it around because we're looking forward to coming back to your place next season.

Good luck v Forest (As in FGR!). They will play a more attacking game than the game at yours when they seemed content with the draw. Unfortunatly, I think you'll only take as many to their place as they brought to yours on a Tuesday night!

Good evening was it, Little Miss Urchin?

 

Let me tell you a story, LMU.

 

Once upon a time, there was a Non League football club and they appointed a new Commercial Manager. A month later, at the next Board meeting, the Chairman opened proceedings: "Right bonny lads, I've read in the Tyneside Evening Argus that Manchester United have just announced a shirt-sponsorship deal with AIG which will bring in £416,000,000,000,000,000 over the next three years and while we will never be in that League until we move to a new ground on the roundabout at the bottom of the M10 motorway, I'm looking forward to hearing the results of the range of initiatives instituted by our new Commercial Manager. Fill us in, whateveryournameis."

 

"Well Mr Chairman, things are going really well. It's early doors but my super, whizzo, major thrust for income for this season is looking very promising indeed."

 

"Champion," says the Chairman, "tell us more, but don't bother with that football-speak 'early doors', 'second half', 'at the end of the day', 'to be fair', 'take the positives' rubbish. How much, bonny lad?".

 

The Commercial manmager replied "The biggie project for this season is to sell a match-day programme on e-bay, before or after the game itself. That bunch of no-nothing, negative idiots on the message board aren't yet fully and completely behind the initiative, other than a lass calling herself 'Wench', but I'm certain that we can win them round. The first programme sold last week and, after administrative expenses, that one single sale generated a profit of 22p. It's the future. I'm planning to sell a programme from one of our away games - bigger profits come from a lower cost-base, as you will recognise -, a shirt and maybe a season-ticket next month. This one is going to be HUGE."

 

And so he came to pass.

 

 

 

I should add, LMU, that this is a work of fiction, and any similarity with any Non League football club or its erstwhile Commercial Manager is entirely co-incidental.

 

You can't make Maryland crab cakes served with a butter, taragon, tomato and prawn sauce without breaking at least one egg. Recipe to follow in "The Mighty Saints Christmas Annual: The Players' favourite Food, Holiday Destination and Music on the CD Player". Only available on e-bay [no reserve.]

Concentrate on the league, blah, blah, blah <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/frown.gif" alt="" />


Yeading appear to have the upper hand in the nickname stakes - "Busy", "The Head", "The Sticks", "Ca va", "Screech"... Nottm "Notts" Forest will be quaking....

Maybe the City commercial manager can work on raising the player profiles by spending some of his £97m budget on a branding consultant to create new nicknames for our players who are showing their bottom-of-the-table credentials by having name-based nicknames. Assuming that image rights haven't been signed away this could raise at least a tenner in additional shirt sales.

Starting with irony at the back: Paul "The Chairman of the Board" Bastock. Any more?

'Twas a good evening, just a little hazy.

Thank you for the story, though I didn't really get your point as I don't know what this thread's about. I'm sure I must have read it upon my return but my memory has dumped the information somewhere. I can't be bothered to read it again.

Anyone seen that nice Mr Ridley lately?

He got quite a mention on the BBC coverage of the Weymouth match the other day. I was thinking LMU wouldn't be agreeing with this when the commentators were waxing lyrical about what a good man Ridley was!!! <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />
