    The logo was just out of a 30 year exclusive use contract that Dali placed on the design when he drafted it. Chupa Chups could only use it on their immediate branding during that time. 

    Both Barca and Real Madrid wanted it on their shirts but also demanded exclusivity. The owner of Chupa Chups didn't want to alienate either of the clubs so sourced a club out of Spain. 

    We were chosen because of our individual name and the fact we wore blue and white stripes, the colours of Dali's favourite team. We were also still in the Premier League when the deal was signed. Chupa Chups tried to cancel the deal on our relegation but it was water tight. 

    They've not sponsored a football team since but a section of Espanyol fans started wearing our shirts in reference to Dali 

    Didn’t know any of that so thanks for the info. I still standby the fact that it looked a mess plastered in the middle of the shirt. How many people wear them now the current retro shirt trend is in? I didn’t see one chuppa chups shirt at Wembley.

    Under the cosh boys were giving us some stick from clips I’ve seen.

     

    Only Parkin but he is a Dingle after all. The other two said they’d love to make a comment but couldn’t because they were amazed at our fans. 
     

    anyway on the main point who cares. we won’t have the biggest home attendances this season but as always we will have the best away support.

    best away fans in the country for the past 30 years. 

  3. I’m confident the core of Byers, Windass and Bannan can step up another gear and with the extra quality we will hopefully add around them this could be an exciting season. Mid table come Feb and a late playoff run with nothing to lose would be unreal. 
    I honestly think Bannan having a few more quality players on his wavelength will make him more dangerous than he was in league 1. Less cloggers in the champ too but we definitely need to take him off set pieces ffs. I cannot watch another floated corner miss everyone.

    Just noticed that Jesse Lingard has been released by Forest. Not entirely surprised but bloody hell, that was an expensive signing if his reported wages were anywhere near true!

    I think it was only ever a 1 season thing. Players like him are one of the reasons I’d prefer to be in the championship. The level of ego in the prem is a joke.

    Coppers closed Nags Head and White Lion about an hour ago, and have just been moving everyone along, taking any opened drinks off people.  Reinforcements waiting round the corner.  Must’ve been 250-300.  Lot of taxpayers money gone on making us go home early.

    Mistakes made from wednesdayites to be fair 

     

    smart thing to do would have been to dress like Spider Webster and throw paint over the buildings for no reason. Sadiqs woke met mob would have brought you all coffee and sandwiches along with blankets later in the evening.

    Daft second sentence that. I'd rather Wednesday have some of the cash before it pops. We fell out of it before the money came in, be just our luck to get there and its gone.

    Once the 1800 away allocations, last minute match moves and fighting for 17th settle in that rubbish about money will soon wear off. Don’t wanna see mercenaries at our club like Lingard at Forest etc. 

  7. As already said Spain isn’t new to this, awful racism inside stadiums for a long time now closely followed by the Italians. The problem is, this story will sink into the abyss as the crackpot left over here spend every day calling things that aren’t remotely racist, racist.

  8. IMO the clubs know roughly how many they are going to sell and at what time slots etc. it looks as though this has gone to plan and they didn’t put the general sale text and the ‘additional ticket per ID on day x etc’ for no reason. It’s been a controlled slow release and I’ve got a feeling we will get another 3/4000 maybe starting tomorrow afternoon. 
    Easy to sit here thinking that knowing I’ve got mine and I get it’s a worry for those who haven’t but I’ll be amazed if we don’t get a shed load more.
