The Jetsons is probably a good one. Metropolis (the fritz lang film from 1927) is probably full of it. a lot of it looks acronistic , but i didnt mean it like that, i meant it like how art deco or whatever looks good. the old braun appliances (shavers, radios, etc) have good style. if i could find it... Nope. Not a clue. (It's 'Anachronistic', btw) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nottm_Wanderer Posted October 21, 2022 Share Posted October 21, 2022 There was a Saturday night entertainment programme on ITV. A bit like Britain's got talent , judges do a critique , but the acts were club acts from the same area as the football club . The green logo was on that show. BWFC got to the final and won ! They got a trophy ( first silverware of the season said the club )! As the closing credits went off the audience broke into a chorus of " when the whites go marching in " It was surreal , seem to remember Bob Williamson being one of our acts , maybe not Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

e2e4 Posted October 21, 2022 Share Posted October 21, 2022 (edited) that website came up when i were looking for it. the talent show plot and lack of elton welsby, made me cross it off my list. and not even look around. that granadaland fansite also mentioned this record, which i definitely listened to whilst reading that page yesterday.

BobyBrno Posted October 21, 2022 Share Posted October 21, 2022 Just a little complaint about the shirt. The box that it comes in is a bit crap. Compared with the other commemorative shirts that’s been produced. For the cost of the shirt a couple of quid extra on presentation wouldn’t seem too excessive. Many collectors would agree. I’m sure it will sell out though. Nice shirt. I don’t usually complain but ….🤷♂️😊 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Charlton had a Bobby davro and Jim Bowen ( that was unexpected) ...I was right about ' when the whites go marching in ' ... Dave ding dong higson can be seen celebrating the win in the Bolton section of the audience . Segregation in the seats 😊 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

perth_white Posted October 25, 2022 Share Posted October 25, 2022 Got my Dad to pop along and pick me up a large to bring with me when he visits. I also want one of the red/blue stripes tops from the recent kits, anyone know if they are selling cheap anywhere? (If I get one of those the average price seems reasonable). Ta.
