This is truly something else

So many aspects to this that are so stupid, both the fact that it's scripted, and that everyone knows that lions don't even live in jungles (though I suspect Tamplin may have a tenuous relationship with the truth as a whole)

By far my favourite part of it is that he thinks this is awesome. He's filming these and posting them himself, on his own twitter account. He either doesn't realise everyone thinks this is a stupid joke, or he doesn't care. Either way it should be a long season full of stupid shit like this from him.

How can you not find it embarrassing doing something like that yourself?

Despite the many mocking comments there are also plenty of sycophantic comments about great passion.

 

[genesimmons]

Apart from having a bellend in charge and a stupid wall full of graffiti they've not done much that's tinpot. They've just turned themselves into one of the most detested clubs in England.

Ha ha. 1st club ive seem where chairman has tattoos on his knuckles. Looks bliddy horrible. I think glenn tamplin is more of a barmier chairmam than george reynolds and thats saying something

And the way he responded to one of them taking the piss about someone 'only have 97 followers on twitter'. Great insult mate.

The Carabao Cup draw.

No idea where in the world it was this time, but after managing to draw teams out twice last time, last night they couldn't decide whether the team drawn were going to be home or away.

 

[GTFCfish]

Funny thing with that draw is that should we somehow beat Derby then it is Championship Barnsley v League 2 Grimsby with League 2 Grimsby being the seeded team of the two.

Not to mention newport in the north, wtf!

I'm not sure whether this should be filed under tinpot or just embarrassing, but we're taking down an Irish tricolour flag flying over the Railway End (alongside the St George's Cross, Union Jack, Cheshire flag and Uruguay flag) because a very small minority of peculiars think it shows support for the IRA.

Give me strength...

This is a wind up right? I mean, having it up in the first place is a bit random...

If I ever end up at Edgeley Park again I am damn well making sure I bring the tricolour and LOFC printed on it. Maybe if I bring my Irish passport with me and mention I went to a Catholic school I may even be held as a suspected terrorist

On a side note, can you please remove the Union Jack? I associate it with the BNP/ National Front. Thanks.

Good old toxic nationalism

And to think in Mr Reynolds we had the privilege of having our own safe cracker, and he still ended up flushing us down the toilet, mind you he never did get round to taking us into the premier league like

Stupid post. As you well know County and Orient will never play each other again. Try and take this more seriously please. Otherwise I'll get my UVF mates on you.

Billericay's home dressing room. This is not a joke.

Could do with that in ours after Saturday

Lovely pantomime fonts on the wall there.

My eyes!

I'd be so embarrassed if this was my club. The man is a joke.

 

[Darlo On Tour]

Also this

I take it he's a Bible-basher.

 

[Raymondo316]

Yeah he claims to be a born again christian.

 

[GuiseleySteve]

Yeah he claims to be a born again christian.

Not sure you'll find his vocabulary in any bible

 

[Aberstone]

It's hilarious because even the most objective person would look at Billericay's new changing room and think 'MY EYES!' yet there are those so blinkered by his ambitions that think it's amazing. The mind truly boggles...

 

[Darlo On Tour]

It's a shame on how one man that in all honesty has essentially turned Billericay into a circus with that changing room, and probably the most mocked club in non-league football as it stands at the moment.
