a ticker tape welcome against u@t [merged]

Postby CITYSTEVEDON » Mon Apr 12, 2010 5:11 pm

Can I just add.

I'm sure things are being organised as I type, and a big thank you goes out to the people behind the effort(and the club), but surely the club can purchase enough streamers to put on every South Stand and North Stand seat? If they purchased 10,000 streamers(enough for both ends) from a wholesaler, they would probably be looking at 25p per streamer, if that, which is £2500. With all due respect to City, £2500 quid plus whatever else they've got planned for 'that' match once a season isn't asking too much.

Just picture the seen. 5000 streamers coming down from the South and North stand, as well as x amount of streamers coming from the East stand.(as that has already being planned) That would look amazing. Being honest, my only concern is that we'll end with a few hundred bog rolls being lobbed onto the pitch. Shit!

This is not a rant at club as I know, ;-) but I think the club should sometimes take the bull by the horns and just think outside the box and do it themslves instead of seeing what the fans can do and then trying to help.

I want Argentina 78, not an Andrex advert. Come on City, if were going to do it, let's do it properly. Where's my Andrex Aloe Vera 4 pack?


i have just seen this on bluemoon, they are bringing steamers,blue and white rolls to greet the teams as they come out, they want e/s to throw as many blue and white streamers to make it look fantastic on sky. the club as o k it and have given the stewards the ok for that to happen. lets hope we can do some streamers as well

I think munchen hating snipers on the roof of the East stand would be much more fun.

Bring any blue or white rolls/ticker tape/streamers you can get hold of,and by the way watch the EAST STAND when the boys come out.

Due to the fact my life for the last 4 weeks or since I first posted the thread has been taken over, can I now ask any fellow blues who go on the other City Sites to please paste on my first thread onto other sites.
I am maxed out at the moment with PMing people and arranging other stuff, but the time is now right to go on other sites and get fellow blues informed.
I had my last chat with the club today and they are geared up and will be ready it is now up to us to add to the occasion, It is our CITY.

If someone can PM and let me know they have gone on the other site that would be great, and if they can monitor it and let me know feedback.

Remember, blue and white streamers, rolls, ticker tape, cut up paper as much as they can.

Cheers Nick

Mod's not sure how all this works and I know you are bumping this thread, but can it be PM'd to all user's, only asking as I don't know what you are capable of doing accounts wise.

Cheers.

38 years old and you're asking me to throw streamers like a kid?






























Maybe just 1 or 2 then ;-)
