Kingsland Red Posted 2 March, 2013 Posted 2 March, 2013 Caught a glimpse of the "If Carlsberg did Crooks" banner unveiled in the Northam today before our PC stewards rounded on the culprits. After the recent debacle at St Marys regarding the 'NA sacking' banners, one wonders where has the fun gone? Even his Rupertship tolerated "Duck off" etc.
Saint Samuel Posted 2 March, 2013 Posted 2 March, 2013 It was a fire hazard apparently. To be honest I wasn't optimistic, but a lot of the stewards around seemed to like it and we kept it out for as long we could before one of the less impressed threatened us with eviction.
Kingsland Red Posted 2 March, 2013 Author Posted 2 March, 2013 St Marys must be one of the few places outside North Korea where the client isn't always in the right and looked after by the stewards rather than shafted by them. It's so dull dull dull. It's only a fire hazard if someone sets it alike, like, erm, setting you or me alight. Good effort though Saint Samuel ,and much appreciated in our area of the Kingsland.
Saint Samuel Posted 2 March, 2013 Posted 2 March, 2013 Thanks Kingsland Red, glad it went down well, but afraid I can't take much of the credit, a few of us chipped in, I didn't really do much.
Just a Fan Posted 2 March, 2013 Posted 2 March, 2013 We saw the poster from the Kingsland, but couldn't read the bubble bit. What did it say?
Saint-Armstrong Posted 2 March, 2013 Posted 2 March, 2013 It reads.... ROSIE: What should we do with this money Dadda? HARRY: BUNG IT
Saint_clark Posted 2 March, 2013 Posted 2 March, 2013 In this case it might have had something to do with Carlsberg being on there and sponsorship issues...everyone knows how funny companies get if their products aren't represented exactly how they want.
110_Persaint Posted 2 March, 2013 Posted 2 March, 2013 It reads.... ROSIE: What should we do with this money Dadda? HARRY: BUNG IT actually quite clever
Lighthouse Posted 2 March, 2013 Posted 2 March, 2013 Is it not also libelous to call Redknapp a Crook? I don't know much about law but as far as I'm aware he hasn't actually been convicted of anything.
Big John Posted 3 March, 2013 Posted 3 March, 2013 So, I can 'think' he's a count but i can't call him a count basically. Coolly. Free speech
Tokyo-Saint Posted 3 March, 2013 Posted 3 March, 2013 Gave me a lol in the kingsland corner. Not cause it was good but cause it obviously took ages to make and got taken away in less than 10 secs. The Leibers one hasn't been out yet, what chance did that have?
Spudders Posted 3 March, 2013 Posted 3 March, 2013 The Leibers one hasn't been out yet, what chance did that have? Yeah that was all a total waste of time and money wasn't it
Tomobz Posted 3 March, 2013 Posted 3 March, 2013 Liverpool had some good banners at Wigan, football needs more of this image from http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-2286507/Wigan-v-Liverpool-live.html
trousers Posted 3 March, 2013 Posted 3 March, 2013 Is it not also libelous to call Redknapp a Crook? I don't know much about law but as far as I'm aware he hasn't actually been convicted of anything. Maybe it should have read: "Carlsberg don't do people let off on a technicality..."?

You are making an assumption as to who it is referring to, no mention on the banner of the man in question.
SnailOB Posted 3 March, 2013 Posted 3 March, 2013 It was a fire hazard apparently. To be honest I wasn't optimistic, but a lot of the stewards around seemed to like it and we kept it out for as long we could before one of the less impressed threatened us with eviction. Would be interested to know what the flags that the club have sold in the past are made out of. Then we could all make our own banners out of the same material - if they can be waved then obvioulsy they can't be a fire hazard. Is there anything in the T&C's of Season Tickets that gives a proper reason why banners can't be displayed ?
Minsk Posted 3 March, 2013 Posted 3 March, 2013 I don't get this 'fire hazard' thing. How are they going to catch fire? The whole stadium is a no smoking area. Are there often naked flames in SMS? Come on, own up, which of you like to light scented candles in your seats? It's like asking everybody to remove their clothes as they are a fire hazard....... ffs.
Kingsland Red Posted 16 March, 2013 Author Posted 16 March, 2013 Good to see that Liverpool's support satisfied the stewards with the fire safety of their banners, thunder flashes and flares. No fire hazard there then.
Eaststander Posted 16 March, 2013 Posted 16 March, 2013 Its ok, they had a nominated steward to carry a bucket of water, so that satisfied H&S with regard to the flares
Wade Garrett Posted 16 March, 2013 Posted 16 March, 2013 So, I can 'think' he's a count but i can't call him a count basically. Coolly. Free speech True story - a bloke at work said to a manager 'what would you do if I called you a c*nt'. He replied that he would be reported and disciplined. 'Well what if I just thought you were a c*nt.'. He replied that he could think what he wanted. 'Ok then, I think you're a c*nt'. Boss didn't know what to say, he just walked off. To be fair, he was a c*nt.
Badger Posted 16 March, 2013 Posted 16 March, 2013 Good to see that Liverpool's support satisfied the stewards with the fire safety of their banners, thunder flashes and flares. No fire hazard there then. Yes, but their loveable scouse wits, so thats alright. Did you see any carrying the Jimmy Tarbuck Jokebook with them ? And disappointed we did not have a minute to observe 'Justice for the 96' etc.
