How to honour Tony Bloom?

[BensGrandad]

Bore off and watch cricket or something, I've waited 32 years for this, done my time in the lower leagues stood on terraces with just a handful of others watching us lose in some northern hole. Every club ultimately belongs to the fans not the owners as without us there would be no club. We should celebrate just like every other club does when they win promotion and not be made to feel we are doing something wrong.

Having waited so long you must be of an age that is past acting like a wally and running on he pitch so stay where you are and applaud the team from there.

- and the rest of us haven't? 32 years - you're just a JCL!

what about a bench on the approach to the stadium with a life size figure of Mr. Bloom ...complete with satchel and bobble hat....sat on it ......??

 

[Weststander]

Simply 30,000 singing his name as loud as possible, today and at the next game.

Agree.

We're you thinking of "Tony, we love you! Tony we do!" to the tune of 'Grandpa'?

Or would it be better to go with the less sickly: "Tony Bloom's Bluarwhiarmy"?

That would be risky. A billionaire could buy an awful lot of sheep to drive down Madeira Drive or whatever rights you get. Traffic chaos.

for Bristol City ?

Just keep turning up to the football and buy plenty of the related tat I guess?

 

[ruthers]

Invade the pitch and all bow down before him

 

[The Andy Naylor Fan Club]

If we have already won the league by the time we play Villa the club should register TB as a player on a non contract basis and have him on the bench at Villa Park.

He could come on in the 93rd minute and we could give him the reception he truly deserves.

Great idea. If he scores perhaps he could do a little celebration for Mr Calderwood as well!

 

[B.W.]

Tony is an absolute legend, but not sure the best way to honour him is a statue TBH... could he be added to the legends 'flags' just outside the stadium?

 

[Aveacarlin']

Our club are on the eve of something momentous!

I would think hes probably too humble/proud to have a statue of himself.

How about something more personal/discrete its the thought that counts

These guys do custom/bespoke poker bracelets could to one with a seagull on blue stones and have it engraved on the inside with "You're the man. Thank you from the fans"

 

[Dave the OAP]

I think a manly hug, a firm handshake followed by a huge kiss!

 

[Southern Scouse]

Listening to 5 live whilst watching sky. Brighton score on Sky while it takes my live commentary 60 seconds to catch up. Are we 2-0 up?
I will be a happy shopper in the Drapers arms, Peterborough tonight get in!

 

[string_bean]

Should be given a well done and pat on the back

 

[Gullflyinghigh]

However he bloody wants. Yep, including that.

On the pitch...Cheering Tony Bloom and the players thats where the real fans were..

 

[rippleman]

Perhaps we should just do as he has asked and stay off the pitch.

Well that went well! Hee hee

And Tony seemed delighted; applauding the thousands of us on the pitch after the game.
