When the Comms team get things really right
at 21:24 13 Sep 2023

Thought I'd share something that I shared at work today at my "away day". I have been on leave so missed the memo that I had been assigned the impactful comms task. Scrambling around for inspiration, I vaguely remembered being almost reduced to tears by the preseason "Born Blue and White" promo vid narrated by none other than our very own Dean McKee (RIP).

So I "youtubed" it and slung it on for the crowd of non football fans and my word the response it got once again reduced me to tears. It truly is a masterpiece and being a diverse East London based organisation, possibly struck a chord amongst the "football fearing" assemnly, who applauded en masse. My director was so impressed and wants to recreate something similar.

Well done to the comms team, aside from faux pas such as "Straight outta Luton" etc, they really do a good job... by way of reminder:

Avant garde player chants
at 01:48 3 Sep 2023

Inspired by our man's 43 mins of perfection, I wondered whether we could be a little less obvious and less borrow'y of others chants?

He came to the Rangers,
Via the River Trent,
Oh and just like those before him, he's been defending ever since,
Oh it's been a long time coming,
But Steve Cook's race is never run...

Or some such.

Unique chants
at 20:40 6 May 2023

With our apparent penchant for borrowing others chants, possibly scripted for the United songbook "all the words to all the songs", can anyone come up with something genious which we've all collectively missed?

I'm still gutted about the ubiquitous(ly) sample Kenneth Paal chant.. in my opinion it should have been:

"In you, I find a story
I want to keep hearing
In you, I see all colours
Not just black or white
In you, I find a reason
A hope for all dreamers
You are my fill, you're my supply
You're Kenneth Paal...

He's what my heart, yearns for now....
Kenneth Paal"

Liverpool request Carabao Cup match at Arsenal is postponed because of rise in Covid cases - https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/59872772

Whilst being at risk of looking like an idiot when it's discovered that they only have a cast of 4 players to choose from (highly doubtful) this to me is a complete and further disregard for the legitimacy of this competition. The big four, six, eight or whatever iteration is the current raison d'etre treat this competition with complete disdain in the early rounds, fielding countless youth team members as well as their cast of a thousand out of favour squad players, but suddenly when Wembley is within a whisker, suddenly it all becomes really important. I guarantee they have most of those players they reeled out in the early rounds available and they had plenty of notice of the absence of the afcon players... No doubt, the efl will be forced to relent and accept the request, but the whole farce of it all from a club that were desperate to leave the English game less than 12 months ago to further enrich themselves..... The people's club indeed

Scaled back tunes
at 18:47 10 Mar 2020

Given the penchant for banks and tour operators to utilise insipid, scaled back, versions of awful pop tracks sung by 14 year old girls, to pedal their wears, I often think of possible tracks that could be given this treatment.

Perhaps Pigbag could be vocalised by angst-ridden, post-modernist, voice of the woke generation, GenZ songstress Billie Eilish?

How about Living in a box by Living in a box for Deutsche Bank?

Opposition keeper run-up
at 14:15 25 Jan 2020

I honestly can never remember us ever doing the whole "oh bullsh@t aaah" thing. But last night with a rare night perched in the loft, I heard this everytime.

Don't particularly have a problem with it but just can't remember us ever doing this and is it another lazy copy job from every other club?

Brentford do plenty of this.

I hope the judges don't have a feed into his dire monotonous punditry. Almost as if he is going with the bookies.. all about aggression this that, however Brook landed cleanly throughout and the other guy was just bluster.

Watt just is so negative, I had to turn off the commentary at one point..

Here;s the decision
