Only been in Clarry once this season. Expensive beer for a start, they took Moretti off and replaced it with a cheaper lager but kept it at the Moretti price. But my main reason is the landlord insists on always wearing a Hull Fc shirt on City match days, with his mate wearing a Spurs shirt. I've had friendly words with the landlord but he is very dismissive of City, with obviously no connection to us at all, even though City fans fill his pub on match days. But it's his choice, as it's mine to take my custom elsewhere.
Why shouldn't adults get names on the backs of their shirt? I've never understood why this is seen as one of those 'cringe' things to do, when to me having a player's name is meant to encapsulate the feelings of that season and a particular player's contribution to it. Just one of those things where don't see the harm in people doing it if they want but some seem to get particularly annoyed by it.
He started 13/24 and never came off the bench for 3 games. Put another way he has played 1144 minutes out of 2430 minutes he’s been available for (47%).
Probably for the same reason your missis don’t wear a unicorn horn to work, and you don’t wear light up flashing shoes.
Kids having player’s names on the back of their shirts is normal because they idolise players. An adult doing it is just cringe. I don’t get annoyed about it. I just think it’s cringe. I look at it the same way I look at those sycophantic freaks who get all excited at a royal wedding and camp out in London with their paraphernalia. Harmless but still cringe.
I wasn't suggesting you get annoyed, just that some do. I don't think it has to be because of players being idolised, but just as a key memory of a particular season. I have a Dawson shirt from 14/15 and it reminds me of his goal against Liverpool for instance. If it was just a plain shirt I'd probably look at it and think of relegation. Each to their own I suppose.
None of my shirts are numbered. Partly because I'm a tight bastard, but partly because it's a memento of the season, not a single particular player. Couldn't give a **** if people do otherwise though. But it always seems a gamble getting a printed shirt at the start of a season. And if you wanna dig it out again for years to come and multiple runs through the wash then frankly, I think it devalues the shirt itself long term as you want fewer prints as possible. . Different I suppose if you get one printed up for display perhaps, but then wouldn't you pay the extra for a match-worn?
Striker Mika Biereth has just been recalled by Arsenal from Motherwell to go out on loan in the Championship. 6 goals and 5 assists in 11 starts. Sheffield Wednesday want him, I reckon that's who we're after. Big lad at 6ft 2, decent option, would probably be available in the Summer.
Yeah, he's a brilliant target man but not sure that's what we need. Probably not suited for the same reason Oscar isn't.
