Stand or fall

[Goldstone Rapper]

On Chairman Mike Bamber's wall in the 1970s and 1980s, as Albion shot up two divisions, was the motto, 'They can, because they think they can'.

Perhaps the phrase, written by Virgil, a Roman poet, could be amended to 'We can, because we think we can' to increase its impact.

I could get that made into a T-shirt - profits to REMF.

Anyone interested?

TBH I'd only sort one out if I knew there was the market for it.

If I get enough thumbsups, they can be done for as little as four quid each.

 

[Digweeds Trousers]

Sent you a PM LB. Do it. I'd be prepared to pay a decent amount for a decent quality one of those t-shirts with that badge. I think it's fantastic.

 

[Sergei's Celebration]

In fact i would take 4 or 5 and give them onto non-NSCers.

 

[The Large One]

Print or embroidered?

 

[Captain Sensible]

Any news on the banner?
It would be great to have it in place for the new season.

I will chip in a tenner, when your ready.

Me too.

Sorry good people....I understand the meaning of 'Stand or Fall'....but it would look like 'Elf and Safety gone mad without' For Sussex by the Sea' underneath...on it's own it looks like the obvious...Stand or you will fall and as Goldstone Rapper says...you can bet your life there will be photoshopped versions on some club sites.....Without mentioning SE25......but each to their own....marjority wins.

 

[Goldstone Rapper]

Don't agree. In this instance, to "fall" means to die. It's saying I'm willing to do what it takes for Sussex, live or die.

In the heat of battle, wouldn't it be better to get the opposition to have recurring thoughts of dying and have them contemplate their own mortality, rather than us?

Our focus should be fixed firmly on victory.
