D'oh!They're not Easter Eggs anymore. Do keep up. They are chocolate eggs that happen to be made every year around Easter
Yup. Just like Christmas cards aren't Christmas cards any more but are only given to people at Christmas.D'oh!
Eeee, when I were a lad.......
"Yup"? Tried looking up the word in the OED. No reference to it. Is it an "Americanism"?Yup. Just like Christmas cards aren't Christmas cards any more but are only given to people at Christmas.
It’s an excellent move by the club. It’ll both increase the buzz on the day and also mean that x hundred kids will be leaving the ground with a memento which helps bond them with our club. More of this please.Nice touch from the club with 2000 flags and also 300 scarfs in the family section.
How can we get more fans to attend on Friday?, the club really needs a noisy turnout!
Trifling sums Dave. You know perfectly well that Rosy is paid handsomely.So he can he afford to give away scarfs and flags if he can’t afford to pay wages![]()
Exactly. How often do the club use images that can be largely credited to the Ultras due to the time and effort involved with the displays? It seems the club has been more than happy to use them to promote their own image - and rightfully so, they look great - but seemingly not as willing to engage in positive discussions with those mostly responsible. Hopefully that changes.It’s an excellent move by the club. It’ll both increase the buzz on the day and also mean that x hundred kids will be leaving the ground with a memento which helps bond them with our club. More of this please.
Plus, if the club engaged positively and proactively with the Ultras, they’d probably also get displays, banners and atmosphere that money can’t buy. It’s been better for the last couple of games and a bit more encouragement from the club could lead to us fans using PayPal donations to create the visual extravaganzas which typified the early years of DE’s reign.
I’d implore our MD to reach out to our most enthusiastic and important group of supporters and help make this a reality.
Latest rumour doing the rounds is that the players and staff have been paid exclusively in tracksuits and bobble hats from Tiger’s excess stock.So he can he afford to give away scarfs and flags if he can’t afford to pay wages![]()
Absolutely. It’s perhaps the biggest no-brainer facing our club in my view.Exactly. How often do the club use images that can be largely credited to the Ultras due to the time and effort involved with the displays?

Also, if any more positive news come out of the club, Dave might need a bigger bus.
Niall is Greig’s sort. An Oufc fan with probably as much experience of being an M.D. of a football club as he did when he started. Give him a chance to push this sort of thing forward, he’s already making big improvements.Bring back Greg Box Turnbull. Was fully committed to the club. Like so many others, left the club with hardly a mention. We need his sort more than ever.
Yokel accent is being replaced, I have written a strongly worded letter to the OM.Agreed. Niall has a nice "lilt" to his accent. What is he doing South of the border!. Earlier this season we had a "North Easterner" doing the announcements. I liked that. More of the same, please. The Oxfordshire accent is very boring and naff to be honest.
Just get your head around the fact that the "Ultras" are just supporters the same as the rest of us that should not be singled out for "special treatment".It’s an excellent move by the club. It’ll both increase the buzz on the day and also mean that x hundred kids will be leaving the ground with a memento which helps bond them with our club. More of this please.
