Latest 1901 Club Email - re lounge movement, which parking voucher and attire!

[East Preston Gull]

Some of them looked as though they came from 1901 tonight!! And by the looks of that car park 1901 is the time they will get home tomorrow evening.

 

[Jimmy's gonna get ya!]

So glad I didn't shell out a grand to be told what to wear, how to behave at a football match, how many people I must have in my car and wait longer to get said car out of the car park than it takes to get the bus and not even get a free sandwich or a flat coke into the 'bargain' As much as I love the new ground and my seat etc I really can't see why anyone would want 1901.

Best view/seats, nice lounge at half time, no long lines for food/drink. Dont use car park personally but so glad I did get 1901. Don't knock it til u tried it.

 

[Seagull on the wing]

Indeed they should - it won't be me though as I'm not a 1901 member. Pity, I'd have loved to shown off my Karen Millen summer dress with my bright red Jimmy Choos

They'd chuck you out straight away...for not having the right shade of lipstick...

Ooh you bitch!!....but fair point

I'm loving the dress code. Am I the only one? I bowled up in two McQueen 'pieces' last night.

 

[Herne Hill Seagull]

I fully appreciate the club's desire to raise as much money as possible from posh/corporate seats, but banning football shirts from any part of a football ground exemplifies many of the game's ills, for me. If I'd bought a 1901 season ticket I'd have been extremely pissed off by this - I do hope they told 1901ers that they couldn't wear the club's shirt before they shelled out.

 

[Stoichkov]

Do 1901'ers lie awake at night fretting about 'lounge movement'?

Clearly, the club MUST sort draw-up and implement an effective lounge movement strategy or else the wheels will fall off this season's waggon any time soon.

How many GA tickets do the club keep back for 1901ers who disobey the dress code? It's a great shame that we'll never have a full capacity attendance because someone insists on wearing a football shirt.

 

[AMEXican Wave]

Do 1901 get their beer in proper glasses, or is it plastic pints for them as well?

 

[APACHE]

Next email: Top hat and tails to be worn at all times !

Clearly they didn't tell everyone, but everyone I know knew about this, and it ( a dress code rather than specifically no replica shirts ) was a part of our decision not to take 1901.

 

[Northstandite]

Ties are optional ? This country is going to the dogs.

Hilarious.

Shirt top buttons must be fastened, and shoes shined to military standard.

No mention of compulsory waist coats yet.
Or suits to be black or navy.

Is that the same 'privileged' car park where 1901ers wait for an hour or more to get home. £360 down the swanny.

Using the park n ride, can get home by 5:15 after Saturday games.

Some 1901ers now using the park n ride, saying they've ditched their £360 space.

*sound of sniggering from the cheap seats

not so much sniggering as an a loud bellowing guffaw of laughter. especially at this as we look down on them from WSU in our unacceptably stripey shirts................

Not acceptable: T-shirts, shorts, sport shoes, flip-flops, sports clothing, including replica shirts

 

[Storer 68]

Do 1901 get their beer in proper glasses, or is it plastic pints for them as well?

no. but their man will bring it to them on a silver salver when summoned by them at the click of their fingers to their seat whilst they peruse the stock exchange prices in the Daily Telegraph

And no nasty polyester ties please. Only the finest Italian silk will be deemed acceptable

Here's a fine example of someone awaiting entrance to the 1901 club.......

 

[Storer 68]

and I do hope the club are not really thinking of trying to enforce this .......becasue it is rubbish. They really aren't considering turninn someone with a valid ticket aaway FROM THE STADIUM because they aren't wearing a JACKET

Ooop, yes they are
