My final word.

If my missus was a brass (don't) then anyone mauling her should pay for the privilege.

That's the first rule of being a Mack Daddy - 'A pimp must always be paid!'

Reebok are a former punter still getting oral gratification - for free!

It's monetary madness.

 

My own little bugbear is the fact everyone calls the GPO Tower the BT Tower. It was paid for by taxpayers money and then sold from us without consulting us.

Also, did you know that you can't tell anyone where it is, otherwise you'll be breaking the official secrets act. So Shhhh, loose lips and all that.

1 Canada Square.

There, have you had enough, Nazis, or do you want some more?

Also, why can Railtrack sell off land to build crap new-build estates.

That's not their land, it's ours.

Fucking Thatcher, Gillian Anderson has been deleted from my wank bank an' all (I have never watched 'The Crown' btw, ever.)

Caught yourself out there, B.D.

It isn't 'The Reebok' then by your rule.

I’m sticking with the Reebok

@gonzo

I was thinking more potential sponsors who'll actually put money in may have reservations if loads of folk, still and always will, refer to it as 'The Reebok'...

Like I alluded to, if say, we'd redeveloped Burnden and then sold the rights and it was The KFC BucketBowl or The Dunlop Wellytop then it'd be perfectly understandable for folk to say "I'll stick with 'Burnden Park' thanks..."

We didn't - we relocated and it was corporate from day one.

Sir Nat knew the value of brass in pocket for the club more than most and, around the time of the move, vocally supported cash rights pragmatism over tradition. Calling it 'The Reebok' is neither, it's an expired corporate link only.

If I was a moneyman (or moneywoman) at Macron or The University I'd be royally pissed off every time I'd heard 'The Reebok' being used, especially on/in the radio/telly/social media/newspapers.

Every penny counts these days and we should be doing all we can to invite money in.

Every penny counts and Reebok have provided fuck all pennies for years now - fuck 'em.

It was factored in during the pricing.

Or at least it should have been, and if not, more fool them.

Give us a shout if you ever become pimps you The Reebok-ers...

I think it's easy to guess who's still shopping around for casual or bootcut jeans because that's 'what they've always worn'.

Give the shitty-shoe peddlers who treat us like paedo lepers a free ride.

I'm surprised you don't pitch up at 'The Reebok' in bell-bottoms with scarves tied around your wrists.

I'll tell Eliy Musk to toddle off up the road to Wigan with his $6m a season. The piemen will gladly trade in The JJB for The Tesla. 😡

Rename Fanzone the Alan Stubbs' 'Watch This Space'.

The North Stand could be Sasa's Stand.

Let's celebrate folk/entities who've shat on us - akin to Stockholm Syndromed battered wives.

Youri Mentalist, Youri!

Do you think you might overthink things sometimes youri? :D

Call it fucking Moonbase Alpha, call it Ravi Shankhar's Bongwatered Rug.

Just don't call it 'The Reebok'.

They fucked us over Royale (see what I did there?) when it looked like we were falling from grace they scarpered Rapide (and again?)

It really grates on me that people still associate them with us after that.

I use 'the ground' for the stadium or Middlebrook for the area.

I'll never use Reebok.

Unless they come back and promise not to hit us or shag around behind our backs anymore. 😍

And they do the kits again, and sponsor the shirt.

And tar and feather the designer of the mustard sports bra.

Do you know who designed it?
