Free snoods at Turf Moor (Leicester fans only)

Post by ClaretTony » Tue Jan 14, 2020 11:13 am

No happy clappers, t-shirts or scarves this time for the Leicester fans at Burnley. This year they will go into the cricket field stand to find that free snoods have been placed on all the seats.

Says it all about what their club (and many other) have become. Before they had a rich backer and escaped punishment etc., they never used to bring big crowds, now it's all tourist-based happy clapping (literally). I'm glad we don't go down this route - other than giving away some flags that half the people aren't bothered about, putting on free transport is better for our lot

Totally agree Cricketfield,.
Folk bitch about us fans being taken for granted, and being seen as irrelevant by the BFC board. At least the board at Leicester show their appreciation for the support the fans give the club.

Nobody would listen to a smurf in person so they jump over the wall !

A snood is a type of traditionally female headgear designed to hold the hair in a cloth or yarn bag. In the most common form, the headgear resembles a close-fitting hood worn over the back of the head. It is similar to a hairnet, but snoods typically have a looser fit, a much coarser mesh, and noticeably thicker yarn.

I love the word snood. It sounds like a race of aliens that Dr Who would come up against.

Doctor don't open the door, there are Snoods waiting on the other side.
Oh no, not the bloody Snoods again, as if I haven't got enough on my plate with the damn Daleks.

Gimmick City strike again. Is it only when they come to us that they get all these freebies or all their away games? At least it's not those awful clackers they use at every home game...although they will probably bring them with them. More annoying than a drum.

If we all paid an extra £100 for our season tickets, our club could make some great gestures too.

Getting a free ground whilst letting local businesses go bust meant they could do that.

Perhaps if we had a chairman with no morals whatsoever might help!

Snoods. The worst thing to appear in Premier League fashions (remember when the players all had them) and so typical of Leicester to give these out to their identikit PL fans.

Summed up very well , they are the personification of giddy plastic corporate fans with their free scarves and waving hands ,even that band they have at home are like some Disney esque/Bollywood outfit . It’s as if Richard Curtis has made a film about a football club and its been teeth grindingly successful .

Should have just said no. But not BFC - we bend over backwards. "Oh you want to give something to your fans? let us put them on seats for you"

Better if it would have gone like this

LFC: "Can we please give all of our fans snoods on every seat in the away end?"

BFC: "No"

The end.

I'd rather be found dead in a ditch than seen wearing a snood. Particularly a LCFC corporate branded one.
