Most tinpot thing I ever heard. (tinpot thread)

[UTS]

Even if they aren't vegan, catching them in Maccies and then KFC is pretty tinpot. It's like one extreme to the other. I'm guessing FGR don't have a nutritionist?

 

[GlynTheMilk]

The club only sells vegan food, but that doesn't mean everyone is told to be vegan.

99% of the clubs employees, fans and players are not vegan. So why should they eat vegan food? Last season I ran into the whole squad in Maccy D's after Southport away, and there weren't too many salads about.

I take it the 1% is Dale Vince himself, yeah?

 

[Chris FGR]

Pennock was simply chatting to a Grimsby fan at KFC on the way back at a service station. He is taking a picture with a young lad, who he spoke to for around 20 minutes.

Don't take everything at face value..

Saw some of the players and staff at Maccy D's near Braintree a few weeks ago as well. They weren't stopping for photos.

The real shame is they're at a big chain like Greggs instead of supporting Walkers, the excellent local option.

Fantastic attention to detail from the bandwagon jumpers at North East Lincolnshire Council:

(Hurst not Hirst & @officialgtfc not @grimsbytown for those less pedantic than myself over gtfc minutiae)

 

[genesimmons]

Not non league but odd to see accrington stanleys lights have gone off so near end of game. With that crap narrow stand faceing dugouts and now floddlight failure are these the worst facilities in football league?

Leaving a fake bomb in your toilets and having your game called off at the last minute.

Some team up north did that.

I'm sure we've all seen this already but I can't resist the opportunity to put Man Yoo in the tinpot thread for the second time this week.

 

[GTFCfish]

Some erm, how can i put it - 'less than generous' odds here:

http://www.grimsbytelegraph.co.uk/P...-Town-s-odds/story-29282647-detail/story.html

Multiply those odds for getting in the Premier League and also then winning it by about 500 and it may be about right!

"Grimsby Town's talented squad and huge support mean they've got the potential to quickly rise through the leagues."

Huge support? For the Conference maybe.

Last time they were in the Championship, they were easily the smallest club out of their depth really. Even teams like Gillingham, Walsall, Rotherham and Brighton (at the Withdean) were getting more.

Andy Rafferty finding out he's been released by the club via a supporter's tweet. Tinpot and embarrassing.

https://twitter.com/AndyRaff21/status/736170318209941504

Raffa's been nothing but class since he joined, not complained about being on the bench at times and does a lot of work with the academy lads. Parmenter/Kinnear should be ashamed of themselves. Presumably the other 5 or 6 who have been released also haven't been told.

To be fair to Brighton, their crowds at the Withdean were limited by the size of the stadium, when they moved to the AMEX they pretty much quadrupled their average home attendance.

A number of official signed items are now up for grabs on the club's eBay auction site, with all profits going towards much-needed equipment for Charlton's media team ahead of the 2016/17 season.

This is the type of thing you expect from a non league team not league 1..
One of the items available http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Ricardo-F...088693?hash=item41abda5c75:g:EiUAAOSwOVpXUCyU

Has the Stepford Whores FC support at the play off final had a mention on this thread? It's definitely the most Tin Pot thing I, for one, ever heard.

A sweatband with a smudge on it is going to raise enough for some much-needed equipment? Be lucky to get them a pencil sharpener.

Non league in every way except league position. Rochdale.

Where to even start? The font cutting into the mans arm.. The lack of grammar at the end. The whole thing?

Here is another of Rochdale's fine works:

^that is genuine

From the Curzon forum.

Nantwich with a poster of their friendly fixures and spelt half of the teams wrong.

Robbie Savage's commentary, so unbiased.........

Also loved his phrase "the flyers are tackling in" -_- hate that bloke so much.

 

[dedwardp]

I loved the: "Have another look at your watch referee!" when there was still over a minute of the indicated stoppage time left to play.

Or "have a look at your referee watch" as he first said it!. Twat.

He's a distant cousin of mine

Never met him though, and twat seems a pretty apt description

Rooney's acting is a thing of pure greatness

Excellent Man U in this thread again. LOL
