General Bring them up 'right'

[Sarge]

What an absolutely brilliant 'marketing' ploy by the club. Lead all newborns in the 'shire to support their local EFL club, right from birth .... well done to all concerned for a top idea

though one teeny observation from me, perhaps if the slogan ' To The Manor Born' was added on the bib, it would absolutely perfect in every way ?

Love this - brilliant move.

 

[Notaswindonfan]

Go forth and multiply ?

 

[Essexyellows]

Over population, Greta will hate it.

That aside, great idea!

 

[TailsWeWin]

Could we expand this idea to Gloucestershire please?!

 

[The Mighty Aldo]

My granddaughter was born at the JR 2 ten days ago any ideas about getting one retrospectively?
She will be attending our next Saturday home game v Southend if I have my say.

My grandson was a little older at six weeks before he attended his first game

I wonder if a few bibs might be made available to us slightly older fans in the SSU? Dribble on one's shirt is so unsightly.

You deserve one. Ask the club I am sure you can get one!

My one year old grandson is spreading the gospel in Perth WA

My one year old grandson is spreading the gospel in Perth WA

I would like some stubbie coolers (made out of wet suit material) so all us exiles in Perth can spread the word ?

 

[Reynolds97]

Great idea from the club! My little one was born in December so missed out, but he already has a life of misery & happiness lined up following the yellows.

 

[outsidethebox]

Great idea. Still think there is a market for nappies with the Ox on the outside and the scum badge on the inside.

If I can get some made I’ll send some over with my daughter in the summer when she comes over for a few weeks ?

Imagine the scene: A pregnant Swindon supporter is down our end of the A420 and goes into labour, ends up in the JR and is given an OUFC bib!!! Oh the first family photo would be great.

 

[McXal]

I also think this is a fantastic idea! My little ones were born in Reading (bad luck kids!) so again, wouldn’t necessarily be relevant - but I love this idea. And the older one is already getting dragged to football most weeks eating sweets and attached to her iPad so dad can watch the game anyway!

Great bit of proactive forward thinking from the club to get families in the area engaged in the club - whom we may not otherwise have reached.

 

[AbbeyOx]

perhaps marketing opportunity for yellow rattles as well

 

[Oldham]

There’ll be enough yellow nappies that’s for sure ?

That would be great, I have quite a few siblings living in Perth.

 

[Neville60]

There is so much merchandise for Aussie Rules, , Rugby, etc here the club could ask one of the companies that supply them (Davaric in Malaga) to produce some and see how they go.

 

[Oldham]

That would be great, I have quite a few siblings living in Perth.

I’ll actually try to do this mate, if I can ill make contact with you and arrange for her to meet you when she goes back.

Not a prob mate, cheers.

I had a look at a local firm online http://stubbyholdersperth.com.au/quote/ but they’re minimum order 100. Not sure we’ve that many Perth (or even Aussie) exiles.

 

[chuckbert]

These guys do smaller runs https://www.mystubby.com.au/pricing/, but they’re expensive.

 

[Neville60]

Yes that is a problem - their start-up amount, also copyright for the image (badge and name) my brother in law works for Davrik and I did get some stubbie coolers for a fundraiser made up a few years back, I suppose the way to go about it is to contact OUFC merchandise to see if either they can get some made or let someone use the copyright to get them made. I feel that once we get better followed hear by advertising and when we get promoted = more tv over here then we will get more support.
