'Together we can'..?

View attachment 67249

Go.

Seems rather appropriate for the club of a team sport with a sell out crowd each fortnight; youth, women's and disabled teams (a sport that anyone can join), as well as a prominent community outreach program (REMF, coaching in schools, London - Paris)....

How would you market the new kit?

 

[knocky1]

Can it.

 

[goldstone]

What crap. Typical corporate marketing bullshit. Why do we need these straplines? We're a football club for chrissakes.

[Pickles]

All the time that we have a CEO trousering 500k per annum , high prices on entry and merchandise, selling players for great money and not re investing into the team, you'd better get used to more and more corporate c.rap.

After all, these straplines aren't cheap.

 

[Easy 10]

It at least needs a comma, otherwise I'm thinking this.

Because we've just spent £30 million (that's 600 Gary Hobsons, or perhaps more impressively, 300 Bobby Zamoras) on a training center and are filling it with starlets. Now feels like a weird time to suddenly miss the days of amateur football, its been gone a while.

After all, these straplines aren't cheap.

Yes. They. Are.

Ok, actually Pickles has a point.

Does it really bother you that much?

Who actually cares what they use in their marketing stuff? All clubs do it. Can't say I find "South London & Proud" particularly dynamic either, but it's just the way of the world.

 

[Codner pharmaceuticals]

Shoot me down, but I like it.

 

[jakarta]

I think that their attachment to an obscure (although wonderful) 1970's German avant-garde Prog Band is an inspiration....

Having those three high profile Brighton hairy faces in the picture shows that this season together we can't.

Nike can on their own.

You sound as if you've just swallowed a dodgy wine gum.

Together Were Loose.

I must admit your " one club one ambition " was very good and sent out the right message . " premier league ready " didn't quite work for me .

 

[JBizzle]

I find it funny how angry people get about this stuff. All the marketing washes over me anyway, if I like the kit, I'll buy it. A slogan won't influence me either way.

 

[Rookie]

Who knew one line would provoke such anger amongst some

 

[AmexRuislip]

Whing for President

 

[Pinkie Brown]

'Together' is indeed the new marketing buzzword that should make you feel all fuzzy and warm inside, a la as Dave once pronounced 'Can do attitude' and 'blue sky thinking' are so last year.

 

[Dan Aitch]

Together we can all come up with our own preference for that 'orrible collar - button done up, button undone, collar turned up, collar turned down... collar tucked in or collar cut off.
