Certified Legendary Thread Winged Guernsey Petition/Letter - #ReturnTheWings: WINGS RETURNED, PERIL RETURNED - JOB DONE!

[QS]

I would love to see more of this too. Fills me with massive pride. The dockers can **** off though.

I have that guernsey
Anyway, I'll have a better look at this tomorrow and have a bit of a think.. larrikin FiveStrings swannies any chance of a sticky for a bit?

 

[Embley]

Any way of getting the media involved? Send it though to clowns like Gossage, Reid, Barich etc?? Twitter??

 

[W.C. Fry]

Love the concept. The clash would only ever really be needed against the Dogs. Could use it for the Dig Deep cancer game too.

If you really want it to get some legs it could be an idea to get a stall going out the front of a few gates at subi and get people to sign the letter as they come in. Big glossy picture printed up and lots of letters (anyone work in printing that could get it done??). Few volunteers from here, set up at main enterences. Get this done properly. If that was the case then maybe editing the letter to allow space for people to write some kind of details - name, member for ## years, whatever.

Yep great idea

Club email but you will probably just get the normal BS sending it there. Anyone know Nisbetts/Cransbergs address?

I reckon it wouldn't be too hard to guess it.

I organized a function not long ago and was emailing the functions sales guy. I will see if I have it, but it will be on my work email

**** the navy off in what you send to the club. You don't start bartering with the most you are willing to pay. If the navy wings are a compromise so be it, but don't start with the compromise.

And if you're one of those people who likes the navy wings, you're dead to me.

 

[Ochre]

But sadly, we've been down this road before and we'll go down this road again. The club simply couldn't give a shit about what the fans want, and nothing will change.

Except for the limited $120 94 premiership replicas we'll wear twice next year, only to disappear afterwards.

 

[smashing]

I'm all for it, but don't we go through this every year? I don't hold out much hope of the club actually listening to its fans for once.

 

[FlowersByIrene]

Even I will participate in this
As a perth resident, although I heavily dislike the eagles, I honestly do enjoy that jumper and dislike the current one
Youre not an expansion side, you're a triple premiership side, your club should act like it and stoo sweeping through jumper changes at the drop of a hat like Fremantle and settle back upon your classic retro style.

I approve and support

The yellow looks dumb with a royal outline on the eagle. Make it navy like the rest. The logo is navy after all.

I did make mention of the change Freo made in the letter but perhaps I could have said it better? Agree with what you say we aren't GC or GWS!! The admirable thing about vic clubs in this respect is most have retained their identity.

Yes we talk about it, but I think enough is enough and as I said in the OP we need to take it a bit further. Somebody mentioned Gossage and those blokes who like a story.
Anyone semi know these guys? Or a better way to communicate with them than just a tweet?

 

[Tiff]

Old mate is right, we need to contact as many media personalities as we can to get some initial attention and then try and get a proper petition set up at the ground.

Yeah bought one of those, only to see them practicly given away for like $40 at the end of the season. Wasn't I a sucker.

Western Bulldogs changed their guernsey on the back of fan power.

It would be good to understand how they went about, given they were successful in enacting the change.

The Western Bulldogs have a very small number of members and therefore need to work hard to keep them/get new ones.

We have a waiting list of thousands, apples and oranges.

The WC BF board podcast gets on average 9.3 million downloads.

I'll make sure to mention it on this weeks show.

 

[JordanWCE]

Totally support this, it's about time we stop talking about it and actually make it happen.

Does anyone else prefer the below eagle head compared to the current one?

I prefer the current one, white outlines can gtfo.

 

[Bacon Warrior]

Nope. I never liked the first one. I only bought one after they removed the white off it.

Top is sooooooooooooooooo much better.

[Gibbsy]

Actually what about the return of this

 

[QS]

I do like the one with the white, but really I think the particulars of what we will use as examples might be better on the FGD board so this thread isn't clogged up with jumper designs?
Can anyone think of a few media type people who love a little thing like this that they can get their teeth into?
