The parade

[ourbob]

Don't like secrets.

After 1st of may and before the 3rd of may.

That's not tellin anyone the date is it?

 

[Kenilworth]

Imagine my dismay that this thread is nothing to do with the main shopping areas in Royal Leamington Spa

 

[Cerberus Blade]

I heard Sheffield City Council are going to delay it until Wednesday have won the play-off final so we can have just the one open top bus with both teams on it as a Sheffield celebration!

 

[Canterbury Blade]

And I thought you were discussing the long lost and lamented 'adult' publication. For those of a certain age and interested 'Parade' was top of the niff mag league...

I'm only in Sheffield until the Tuesday after the Chessie game so it better be on the Monday.

Have the Blades had parades after our other promotions? And would we still have a parade if we finished runners up?

I think we still had a parade/town hall gathering at the end of the Triple Assault season?

Until anything is confirmed the council won't be booking an open top bus as last year they prematurely booked one and wasted tax payers money on the deposit when it had to be cancelled and sent back

Does winning Third Division warrant a parade?

Beat me to it.

Can we not just forget that we were even here? I don't want reminding of the Neil Collins, Connor Sammons or Jose Baxters we've endured in 5 (of six) painful, pathetic shameful years in this league.

Does winning Third Division warrant a parade?

Yup. We're not too up far our arses to think this isn't an achievement. If it was't we wouldn't have spent more than half a decade trying to do it.

Sense of achievement or sense of relief?

No one will be more pleased than I to be promoted and/or champions. But..

Edit. Wonder if Oxford/SISU will do the same for the CrapaTrade Trophy

But we're too massive to celebrate winning such a piffling league?

Erm... Maybe not massive, but it's hardly been seasons of pride down here.

 

[JohnDenver]

Nope, true, but we're celebrating this season's team, not the last 5. And they deserve that much.

 

[super_pig]

don't think we should have one personally.. i think we have more class and should show it.. we don't want to be like 'them' do we??.. do we??

 

[HillmortonBlade]

Honestly.. I'm conflicted by my own argument. I'll celebrate like crazy.

Maybe the opposite of the Walk of Shame at end of the match against Chesterfield would suffice? But if it's to be a parade, I'll be there.

Alternatively, we make that bunch of carthorses pull the bus while we all pelt them with eggs and dogshit.

Well, pigs had one when they finished 2nd so if that's worth one, winning the league surely is?

 

[knowsnowt]

Not bothered about a parade and such shite. Then again if we go up I win a bet with our lass (her dad is a pig). She has to massage my privates with coconut oil. I'll take that.
(My forfeit was to cook tea for a week, little unbalanced but I knew I was on a winner this season)

I'll check Owlstalk to see what they think before I comment ☺

Not saying our views should be dictated by them, merely that if 2nd in this league is worth a parade then logic suggests that 1st is.

 

[3-GBlade]

If United win the league it is worth anything.... Not may teams ever have won all four divisions.

Is not a major achievement but its not a bad one...

 

[Snowman]

Parades are so 1970's. I'd tell Sheffield City Council to go and do one and save their money for sucking up to Blue Tuna man whilst we have our own private party round Bramall Lane. Fuck the rest of the city. Build a wall round S2 relocate Radio Pig to South Barnsley and put on a load of bands, free beer and a firework display.(and a BBQ).

I did put a smiley at the end.

Should we get the title and have a parade, the pigs will take the piss forgetting that they had one for 2nd place. Nowt so sure, not that I give a fuck what they think.

And make The council, Wendy or Mexico pay for it

 

[blade too long]

if wednesday do miss out on the play offs cant we ask Jim Bowen along for when we lift the trophy up and he can say to owls fans heres what you could have won

 

[GRUMPY BLADE]

Send the bill to Jimmy Cranky.

But for many they are. I tire of the 'Don't be like the Pigs' tripe conditioning what we say, think or do on here. Even what songs we sing. No wonder we've only got three and they're all at least thirty years old. It's a symptom of B.I.C.

Personally I've never visited 'Porktalk' and wouldn't know any of their players if they fell on me. The only one I've heard of is Ja Kunt.

I'm a Blade. We're a massive club.
