Go vomit if you must. Simply responding to you saying "is all this neccassary for a new kit?". Life is a bit dull at the moment, but I'll cope with it. Being told to "get a life", in capital letters no less, by a poster on a messageboard is somewhat ironic.

Tommy_Fent Posted March 24, 2011 Share Posted March 24, 2011 sometimes hype can be annoying yet at the same time successful, just look at the "go compare" adverts, it annoys a lot of people that much that they'll always remember it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

j@cko Posted March 24, 2011 Author Share Posted March 24, 2011 Was that real;ly neccesary? of course! you have to be so careful what you say on here, with fear of someone jumping all your post. I was merely killing a few minutes at work with my statement, didnt want a barney wasnt controversal.....yet some tool has to come back with a smarmy comment, gets my goat up....so yes IMO it was.

I was merely killing a few minutes at work with my statement, didnt want a barney wasnt controversal.....yet some tool has to come back with a smarmy comment, gets my goat up....so yes IMO it was. Ok, let's start again. Is all this really necessary for a new kit? No. They could simply launch a new kit by sticking it in the club shop and saying nothing about it. Word would get round and some shirts would get sold. But they could then rightly be accused of doing little to market things and, as a result, negatively impacting the income for the football club. We all know that the more money they make from gate receipts, shirt sales, programme sale etc, the sound financial position they'll be in. Having to sell the leading scorer season after season is less likely to happen. So, assuming this 27th April thing is about shirt sales (although I don't suppose it really matters what it is), they've started to market in advance. The countdown clock has raised some eyebrows. A handful of people have commented on a messageboard. 10 times that have probably read about it and now understand that there's a date next month that matters for some reason. Something that's cost them a few quid to set up could go viral and generate thousands of pounds of extra income for our tin pot football club. Or it might stay close to home, but generate a few hundred quid that it may otherwise have been missed out on. Either way, they've done something. They've made the effort. People are showing an interest. I'm quite interested to see how the campaign develops. I think that's a good thing. Better than doing sod all.

Bloody hell, you are being just a tad sensitive here. If you don't want a barney, why the complete attack on a comment? The comment was way off being smarmy. Look at the negative rating for your comments. That's the most negative reaction to a post on OWTB. You don't have to be careful. You just don't have to act like a brattish 2 year old if you don't get your own way or somene disagrees with you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OAFC_Rob Posted March 25, 2011 Share Posted March 25, 2011 I have a theory, at first I thought it was a new online show. but ive just had a brain wave! Maybe...just maybe it is an annoucment on the stadium front. Any thoughts? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oafc0000 Posted March 25, 2011 Share Posted March 25, 2011 I have only just started on this venture so I am looking to build a portfolio. This is good for you as a customer as it means I will most likely do this dirt cheap. That had me crying laughing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt Posted March 25, 2011 Share Posted March 25, 2011 It flashes when the countdown finishes. www.andrewhopwood.co.cc had better update his customer facing website, or at least remove the remark from his code. His portfolio has given me a migraine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
