Like I said in the previous post I now work until 1 plus I didn't say it was entirely my idea I suggested it a Long time ago, I'll stick to watching Leigh

someone in the 'family' has to suggest things for them to be heard? In that case I wont bother saying I'll help out or putting forward ideas I'll leave it to you experts. It doesnt take 14 months to use an idea that was first put to you over a year ago. I also said I'd help do parky pig and the p.a announcer put as per it's kept in the family

He was injured, didn't you see?

he said hes fine on twitter this morning!

I'm still waiting for Parky Pig to open a twitter account. I was looking on there earlier to see if he had an account so I could tell him about the beautiful bacon butty I've just had.

Is it just match days they need volunteers ?

Depending on what you can offer/do for the club. what can you do to help?

To be honest the club wont turn away anyone willing to help doing anything.

I was a big fan of Parky in his hey day but at the end of the day it's down to one thing, the person in the suit. The costume is irrelevant.

It's a man in a suit?

People miss the point re having a mascot, it's a focal point for the kids and a marketing tool something other clubs do quite well and we have never utilised, entertaining the fans at games is an aside an important one I grant but the marketing that could be done is something I see our new director John Roddy making use of to the full, we didn't do it last time with Parky or with Artie but we must not miss the boat this time.
Last time out I felt that Parky had run his course only because he wasn't fully utilised and at that time a fresh approach was needed, now we have a load of young fans who may never had seen The Original Parky so again use him or lose him.

We might have had a chance with our mascot had the thieving pie eaters not employed the roman centurion as their mascot. When that happened our teams mascot was doomed. I still think that it was done on purpose. Why could they not have done something like Thor or Connan, or even a native american. No they took a roman centurion. There is no way that the people of Leyth will accept a mascot that is simiilar to the pie one. Silly but thats how it is. Anyway I have really felt for all the Arty's as they really have been flogging a dead horse.

Has he still got his quad bike?
