Rather than this rather uninspiring patch of grass we currently have as our banner, I've begun process of designing a new banner which can be put at the top with some collaboration with the chief mods. It is attached, and any more images (as it is a little sparse at the moment) which would add something, then please leave a URL in the comments for me or an attachment.
I fiddled around with looking for a decent image for the top a while back. Perhaps a shot of the ground and the fans celebrating?
I don't think many people would understand the connection to the gentleman in the photo, but that's why I like it.
is the gentleman with the coracle eustace rogers of ironbridge? if so he taught my father how to paddle a coracle. love the banner, only 2 loggerheads? no room for a third
The banner is fine apart from the necessity to include a photo of young Tom Bradshaw!!!!! Must keep AJ happy.
aj is not fussed about inclusion of tb or not, he may be at cardiff in 3 months, and for the record aj is always happy, more so when in his local. good work lenny. fs aj devon
I have now updated it, but there's still one more space in between the Rowley flag and the coracle man. Uncle Roland maybe?
As a quick play around. Would you want any text on it i.e Breath on 'em Salop? Floreat Salopia? Unbeaten at home 2011-12? Shrewsbury Town? STFC? Or just plain backgorund picture? Any suggestions?
I think we posted that simultaneously there Matster! I am trying to stay away from including current players due to the fact they're all going to leave at some point, although it's a simple enough job to change it around if they do. I also have two Turner pictures, but I'm quite happy to put another one on!
Always wondered if ..... .....the ball retriever was paid or did he do it for love? ......were there two of them so he could have holidays or be off sick? .....if he was a fan how could he see matches in the days before 'The football league show'? .....when we had all the floods in the old days (but still just managed to get the match on) how dangerous was it? As you can see I am very much a son of the Severn, loved my fishing too! Let's add one more for the oldies.....can anyone remember after one flood the ground was covered in sand but someone thought molasses woulds be a good addition!!! It looked bad but after a couple of matches it smelt awful!
I'm loving that panoramic photo Matster, but I'm also loving Lennys too! There's only one way to settle this... Fiiiiiiiiiiiight!
Get rid of Clippy and you're onto a winner! I'm not going to be offended if one of Matster's versions are chosen btw!
Sorry Lenny but I like this one. Too much is made of the loggerheads but another one instead of Lenny wouldn't go amiss. Matster
