| Quote: Nothus "?
I think you might have misinterpreted my post here. I was referring to an article wherein the club presented a special prize to the 1863rd person to buy a season ticket. They then did the same thing with the 2000th member (with a quick promotion of their tailoring business).
I was merely being my usual cynical self and implying that these were ways of drumming up good press. I wasn't having a go, and I certainly wasn't bagging the entire 1863 Members Club. I think it's a great idea and the welcome pack is fantastic. The scarf in particular is brilliant and will be getting plenty of use by yours truly, just as soon as it drops cold enough ![]()
Apologies my cynical friend, you are right I misread your article, I think 'Malarky' and Kid (ding!) in the same context threw me into alert mode!
In that same vein, I read a post that deduced we had sold on average 26 memberships per day to reach the 2k, so that being the case we should be celebrating the 3000 mark just before the 11th January which will coincide with our first Friendly against Cas and 4000 will be reached just before the first home game of the season on the 22nd Feb.
How's that for timing?????

Ruh-roh, I sense Ferocious Aardvark will be along any minute with a spreadsheet for us all to predict when we'll pass those milestones!

do you mean he will provide all of us with a spreadsheet that predicts when we will pass the milestone, or a spreadsheet for us all to use to predict when we will pass the milestone?
If Nuthos is promoting the PR value of both the 1863 and 2000 memberships can I also promote the PR value of appointing a captain that is not an obvious ever-present starter and not announcing the vice captain until further down the timeline? This is certainly the best, most coherent and consistent PR campaign from the club in a long time, and long may it continue.
Sharps appointment must be a sign of certain targets being achieved, and further evidence of the long term thinking of this regime

My spreadsheet social experiment served its purpose. It proved that there is no point in any of us trying to predict anything, as nobody came even close to a correct set of predictions. Indeed after examining the final results, there were queues of bookies in silk-collared Crombies fighting for the Odsal concession, as a get-richer-quick scheme.

I knew you were going to say that... 
I'll go 3000 reported on 3rd January; "reported" to factor in Nothus cynicism of PR. And it'll be a lickle baby Bull.  |

Mine is a quote from the 17th chapter of the book of Job...or so I was led to believe. Not that there is much that is too obviously, wholly believable, in that book but that bit seemed a good candidate - if indeed it is actually there..and indeed, if the book of Job really exists..Well, I'm hanging on to it anyway!  |

Sounds more like the book of Khan or possibly Hood's first letter to the Deceived fans

Job, 21 21
What can this mean, if not that the bull will rise, we will not fail, and Odsal will once more be filled with dancing children?

'My' Old Moore is the one of almanac fame, y'know, buddy of Mother Shipton...[who also never predicted the Loveabulls]  |

Ah, that Mother Shipton. Quite a savvy lass, for somebody who didn't predict she'd end up living in a cave, Oh well.
But did you know she was into rugby league predictions, too? Look at this one'The time will come when England shall tremble and quake for fear of a dead man that shall be heard to speak ; then will the Dragon give the Bull a great snap, and when the one is down, they will go to London town.'"
How could she know about Catalans, and better still, how could she know that when we went down, we would still be playing London?

I bet she didn't predict that one day her gaff would be owned by a little with a bad hair piece. Not a lot of people know that.
