Forfars have been found to be putting anti amphetemines into the Albions half time pies,resulting in wins being turned into draws,and draws to losses.If it wasn't for Forfars ,the Albion would currently have 66 points and be ready for the Premiership.
Forfars with their mouse-turd infested bakeries and Falmer dwelling capitalist nimbys have aimed this thrust at the heart of our club,its history,present and future.
Now,can the bumper sticker be re scheduled as a bunper sticker,and also issued as a window sticker?
I'll take 2,though my smilies option seems to have taken a hike.
Oh,and I don'tthink many in my neck of the woods would have heard of Turdfars the bakers.

Luckily I am not claiming credit for the design nor the wording. So no offence taken, cos it wasn't mine to receive.Bwian said:
What do you suggest, though?

Not that you asked me but i just thought the forfars bit could be a bit bolder and also the design as a whole should include a bit of blue and white, great idea though.

The point about a car sticker is is that it is a very short, humorous statement capturing a passing person's attention for the briefest of moments.
Taken out of context, the first line 'Ban the Bun' is obviously a bizarre statement.
The line below talks about Forfars the Bakery and Brighton & Hove Albion at loggerheads - two organisations not obviously linked, so again a little bizarre if you don't know the context.
Therefore, the bottom line is the last opportunity to give the uninitiated some perspective and clarity, otherwise it will make little sense. And it's this line I am currently not overly happy with.
So, in answer to your question, yes I do think it needs a last line, but the line has got to be short, punchy and informative.
Incidentally, I am very happy that the bun looks a bit like some sugary poo.
In response to the point about blue and white featuring in the artwork, I would resist that on two main grounds. First, blue and white can possibly make it look like an 'official' club sticker, something we must at all costs avoid. Secondly, and more importantly, red and black add a sense of warning or importance, and are far more noticable when catching the eye.
And that, folks, is my rationale on the wording and design of this car sticker. Thank you.

I think the design is fine but the bottom line didn't make sense to me-maybe I'm missing something there?
Why not something like "Until LDC Stop Trying To Destroy BHAFC" or am I way off with that?
