Getting stuff in the programme

[Nade]

I've got a picture of me an a mate scuba diving with my United shirt on. Me and him are in front of a shipwreck near the Cayman Islands. My mate is a Wednesdayite and I thought it'd be funny to get the picture in the programme describing us both as Blades.

Anyway I've got in touch with sufc and they've got back to me saying that it costs £35 to get it in there?!?

Maybe I'm looking at things in an old fashioned way, but this doesn't seem on to me. For one thing, I thought they had a section where they had pictures of Blades in different places. In any case though, charging fans £35 to stick a picture in the programme seems a bit out of order, but then again maybe I'm just being sentimental?

Thoughts?

Edit: As an ex player and especially considering my goal against Arsenal, I thought they would be more than happy to oblige

 

[Isar]

Suprised they want to charge for this, thought it would be free.

Me too, they surely struggle to fill all those pages every home game?

Cheers I'll get on that.

In case it gets in the programme, I should say that I have a disease whereby once I get in water I transform from a black dude that scored against Arsenal into a white guy in his late twenties. I'm very sensitive about the condition and I don't want people to take the piss as it might trigger me, so this is just a heads up.

Summary of my thoughts

If he's a Wendy then how come you got him to wear the Blades shirt?
How come you can both squeeze into one shirt?
Is this before you got onto the sausage rolls?
Were you there for tax reasons?
When you got back to the beach did you set up a shell company?

I think this is a question that can, at least in part, be referred to brownie. The question of why a supporter would subjugate themselves to the point where wearing the shirt of their historical rival is even a thought, let alone something you'd do in jest, is beyond me, but maybe brownie can provide an insight?

1. If he's a Wendy then how come you got him to wear the Blades shirt?
2. How come you can both squeeze into one shirt?
3. Is this before you got onto the sausage rolls?
4. Were you there for tax reasons?
5. When you got back to the beach did you set up a shell company?

1. I didn't. There's only me wearing a Blades shirt. I want the programme to say we're both Blades though so I can show it to him for the lols.

2. thsoidhgfdgsoihdfgih

3. A haiku:

Sausage rolls for life.
There is no before.
I'll be rolling forever.

4. I'm not allowed to talk about it.

5. They're not allowed to use shells for commercial use out there because other crabs might still need them.

I wasn't really looking for any coherent answers, Nads, just taking the piss out of you and your sloppy prose

Still, even the answers are proof that the UK education system is failing, dreadfully

If I knew it would be scrutinised in such a way then please do not for a second worry your pedantic little mind about it: I would have made every effort to nail my grammar would have taken great pains to be as wordy verbose grandiloquent as possible.

Already a thread for this sort of thing?

Does the water also absorb pastry-based fat deposits?

I like grandiloquent

 

[Nade]

I like grandiloquent

it was a toss up between that and magniloquent.

I like that both of them are examples of what they describe.

With a haiku of that quality? Very harsh Ken.

More of a fan of doggerel myself.

Is that fancy show off speak for dogging?

Just asking like.

 

[Bladepicker]

Alas, no.

Doggeral is poetry that has no structure or rhyme,
or has easy childlike rhyme,
for mainly comic effect at the time.
Or sometimes when done
Both styles can be fun,
You can even chuck in a pun.

And the biggest plus point to take to the bank,
When talking doggerals over dogging to be perfectly frank,
with poetry you'll never see Phil Mitchell having a wank.

My picture will be in tonight's programme.

I asked for the Walsall game specifically because I'll be going tonight so I'll be able to buy it. Looking forward to it.

 

[larkymasher]

On a purely financial point, if you can afford to go Scuba Diving in the Cayman Islands, i think getting your picture in the programme for £35 is a reasonable price to pay to round the whole adventure off.
I look forward to seeing the picture tonight pal.......

I got it in for free in the end. There was a miscommunication and they thought I wanted a page-size feature of it. I didn't, I just wanted a picture in the 'Blades on holiday' section.

Glad to hear it. Was a bit cheesed off that the club was taking the piss a little you when you first came on with this.

Or... They assumed it'd be a full page feature just to get all of you in shot.
