Tinned Food Count Perello Pitted Queen Olives 350G

Steve1956 · Post by **Steve1956** » Mon Jul 25, 2022 4:25 pm

Last season when we where struggling for a win I did the tinned food count for the first time that season against Brentford to try and change our luck ultimately we put in one of our best performances of a poor season so as not to get caught out against Huddersfield I'm giving this Claretsmad/Up the Clarets institution one last swansong to get us off to a flyer....I know one or two will help out but let's keep it going for a full season between us and I'm sure it will help us have a promotion winning season,the wife has some weird & wonderful stuff in the cupboards...and I'm sure others have to

Well done Steve. A tricky commodity, my guess is 80 olives and 144 ml of juice.

Afternoon all,

Well this is a most welcome surprise.

So without further delay

I can confirm for certain that the are,

The original counters will tell you that you have to follow certain rules for the positive effect on the team to take place. I don't know if any research has been done as to whether that still applies to the modern era.

Cheers for stepping up Steve, and hopefully you can play your part in getting the Kompany era up and running with a win.

Thanks for the count Steve. Lack of counters will probably see it fizzle out about November but cheers for stepping up.

If its successful ... there will be no shortage of counters (I have been sussing out tins ready to go

already) and perhaps a revamp to the old rules is just what is needed ...

As nonaynever says ... Different League ... Different Manager ... Different Format ... Exciting Times
