Wymsey Posted 27 September 2016 Posted 27 September 2016 I know there's some on here that detest it's term/use at the ground, but I thought it stood out very well with the fox in the middle pre-match. I suppose we'll see it more and more, now part of the club's DNA?
Sharpe's Fox Posted 27 September 2016 Posted 27 September 2016 Soon as we start saying a ****ing hashtag is "part of our DNA" we might as well start selling popcorn and playing crowd noise through the speakers like those plastic sellouts in the east end. I know football is commercialised and toned down to within an inch of its life but let's try and keep a modicum of pride about our football club, please. **** sake.

If twitter had been about when Micky Adams was here it would have been #FoxesNeverQuit. Honestly, there's far greater things to worry about. The fact that two words can make grown men angry is mad IMO,

foxile5 Posted 27 September 2016 Posted 27 September 2016 Why does it need to include the hash tag. That's the painful part. Just fearless. Why do we need to tie our identity to a facet of some soulless global marketing medium.

Football is becoming increasingly commercialised but it doesn't mean we should just accept it.
CosbehFox Posted 27 September 2016 Posted 27 September 2016 I thought it was crap to be honest. A complete lack of imagination in design. The cards aswell was pretty pants.

No? Well alright then.
Manwell Pablo Posted 27 September 2016 Posted 27 September 2016 i think the fact a multi million pound company produced something so tepid when a relatively tiny sized supporters group relying on nothing but hard work and donations could of produced something much more memorable for our first ever champions league game is what will annoy most. i look forward to Copenhagen when hopefully we will get to see the fans effort. As for the club, shocking quite angry about it really (no cat or crackers here sadly) but can't be arsed to go into detail.
urban.spaceman Posted 28 September 2016 Posted 28 September 2016 I love it, but they should drop the hashtag.

adejo92 Posted 28 September 2016 Posted 28 September 2016 We could use #championsofengland however that shelf life will be fast dissapearing. At the end of the season we could just use #wewerechampionsofenglandbutnowwearenot

The thing is and always will be with things like this a multimillion pound company are not football fans and have no passion for the club. No matter how much money they spend and who they employ to design it. it will never compete with a group of people doing it for nothing more than the love of the club, who have grown up watching games and experienced grounds, support and atmosphere across the globe. #supportersknowwhatsupporterswant
davieG Posted 28 September 2016 Posted 28 September 2016 What were the blue and white lines supposed to represent?
Weller in Tights Posted 28 September 2016 Posted 28 September 2016 Moan, moan, moan. I visit this site less and less. The last few years have been the greatest in my football supporting life. I come on here and someone is actually complaining about the blue and white display using the clappers! it just added a bit of colour, get over it. #Fearless, so ****ing what! COYB

Fox92 Posted 28 September 2016 Posted 28 September 2016 It was literally there for about half a minute, then down again. Not a massive fan of the 'fearless' thing, when it first came down and I saw the text in a scary Halloween font I was afraid what it was going to end up looking like but the Foxes eyes aren't too bad tbf.

Also the cards didn't work as only a half the people got involved, although that might be because by the time they realised what to do the banner had come down again. On the plus side there is scope now for UFS to work with the pulleys, would they be allowed to use the foxes eyes for future displays? Maybe design something with the same dimensions, but I really like the foxes eyes. Were they only allowed to keep it up for a certain amount of time?
