Title: One-off 69er promotion/play-off special Post by: crystall Tips on Sunday, April 18, 2010, 14:03:22 time is a bit tight, but just for a laugh, I want to whip up a a small circulation, paper-copy 69er in celebration of this season.
too many people are getting away with no piss being taken. Already got a couple of people with me, need few more + contributors. Maybe a short meeting somewhere in Swindon over beer this week would do it. If you can contribute anything or help, you can pm me or reply here. Title: Re: One-off 69er promotion/play-off special Post by: THE FLASH on Monday, April 19, 2010, 10:35:09 I will contribute!
Title: Re: One-off 69er promotion/play-off special Post by: crystall Tips on Monday, April 19, 2010, 11:16:57 cool! Get writing, I am trying to find a printer who can get stuff done quickly and cheaply.
Few others are lined up to write/draw stuff too. Hopefully we can get this confirmed in the next couple of days. Title: Re: One-off 69er promotion/play-off special Post by: Power to people on Monday, April 19, 2010, 12:49:33 Not so sure you would sell it though - fanzine's are a dying breed with the introduction of the internet, look what happened to fanzine's since the 69er died, and at other grounds in general you don't see many at all these days.
Title: Re: One-off 69er promotion/play-off special Post by: THE FLASH on Monday, April 19, 2010, 12:54:00 I am sure a play off special will sell.
My Malpas piss take article will draw in huge crowds. Title: Re: One-off 69er promotion/play-off special Post by: herthab on Monday, April 19, 2010, 12:55:48 I am sure a play off special will sell. My Malpas piss take article will draw in huge crowds. Must be funnier than your posts on here then. Title: Re: One-off 69er promotion/play-off special Post by: Arriba on Monday, April 19, 2010, 12:56:10 and the top post says only a small circulation.i'm sure enough will buy it.put me down for a copy

Title: Re: One-off 69er promotion/play-off special Post by: donkey on Monday, April 19, 2010, 20:28:30 Fuck off....im busy writing something funny. That's good copy. Title: Re: One-off 69er promotion/play-off special Post by: THE FLASH on Tuesday, April 20, 2010, 07:01:43 Herthab has put me off......I have writers block.

Title: Re: One-off 69er promotion/play-off special Post by: yeo on Tuesday, April 20, 2010, 22:02:52 Its hard to think of stuff when things are going well,if only we were getting relegated :(
Title: Re: One-off 69er promotion/play-off special Post by: crystall Tips on Tuesday, April 20, 2010, 22:05:03 True, if only we had a McMahon or a Malpas to slag off.
Or even a Shaun Close. Maybe we shouldn't wish that. :) Title: Re: One-off 69er promotion/play-off special Post by: chalkies_shorts on Tuesday, April 20, 2010, 22:33:20 Hutchinson, Nouble, Taylor of Oldham, Beckford, Snodgrass, Naarwich payimg money for Owain Tudor Jones and Macca, Baz Savage, Scum wrapping it up by X Mas - again, John Barnes and thick cunt McAteer at Tranny, theres' plenty.
Title: Re: One-off 69er promotion/play-off special Post by: Nemo on Tuesday, April 20, 2010, 22:35:25 And O'Brien's hammies.
Title: Re: One-off 69er promotion/play-off special Post by: THE FLASH on Wednesday, April 21, 2010, 15:16:14 Im doing a piece on the Squawking man.
Title: Re: One-off 69er promotion/play-off special Post by: jayohaitchenn on Wednesday, April 21, 2010, 15:23:35 I'd like to do a number on him.
Title: Re: One-off 69er promotion/play-off special Post by: Nemo on Wednesday, April 21, 2010, 15:25:34 A number two?
Title: Re: One-off 69er promotion/play-off special Post by: ibelieveinmrreeves on Wednesday, April 21, 2010, 16:15:54 I'd like to do a number on him. You ought to get Grist to draw up an advert or something to join the JFL fanclub, might be a better way to get it out there? Title: Re: One-off 69er promotion/play-off special Post by: jayohaitchenn on Wednesday, April 21, 2010, 16:26:23 You do it Chillers
Title: Re: One-off 69er promotion/play-off special Post by: crystall Tips on Wednesday, April 21, 2010, 17:05:53 O'Brien's hammies, now there's a thought. But if I tried to draw that it would look like stick man.
The Flash and Adje's cartoons were always best, along with Alex Cooke - where is he now? Title: Re: One-off 69er promotion/play-off special Post by: One F In Fitton on Wednesday, April 21, 2010, 21:30:10 Im doing a piece on the Squawking man. He'd be chuffed and honoured if he could read. Surely Aljofree could be a target (even though he was a good leader for us at the beginning). Seemed an arrogant fucker....happy to have his shorts pulled down in a game by BP, to show off his Superman kecks....has impressive tits....APPARENTLY was heard calling a Town fan a "southern twat" in that Stockport game....strutted around with his chest puffed out pointing the finger at others all the time............oh I dunno, probably nothing in it, just trying to think of something. Title: Re: One-off 69er promotion/play-off special Post by: Nemo on Wednesday, April 21, 2010, 21:40:15 I don't know why, but my mental image of Hasney Aljofree is Foghorn Leghorn. Apart from the inflated sense of self-importance, I'm not quite sure why
Title: Re: One-off 69er promotion/play-off special Post by: crystall Tips on Wednesday, April 21, 2010, 21:54:47 Well if I could do cartoons, I might do alter egos - Foghorn Aljofree an all - but I can't. Wonder if that might be a bit flattering of him anyway
Title: Re: One-off 69er promotion/play-off special Post by: Talk Talk on Thursday, April 22, 2010, 19:29:11 Well if I could do cartoons, I might do alter egos - Foghorn Aljofree an all - but I can't. Wonder if that might be a bit flattering of him anyway Are you fit? Title: Re: One-off 69er promotion/play-off special Post by: crystall Tips on Thursday, April 22, 2010, 19:33:07 Fit? I run quite a bit and go to the gym if that's what you mean ;D
Title: Re: One-off 69er promotion/play-off special Post by: Talk Talk on Thursday, April 22, 2010, 19:49:41 Fit? I run quite a bit and go to the gym if that's what you mean ;D You'll have to run fast to get away from me honey. Title: Re: One-off 69er promotion/play-off special Post by: crystall Tips on Thursday, April 22, 2010, 19:56:40 I bet I am old enough to be your mother little boy
Title: Re: One-off 69er promotion/play-off special Post by: Talk Talk on Thursday, April 22, 2010, 19:59:03 I bet I am old enough to be your mother little boy Ha ha ha ha. No. I reckon you would be about two and half years younger than me. Perfect. :girlgiggle: Title: Re: One-off 69er promotion/play-off special Post by: crystall Tips on Thursday, April 22, 2010, 20:02:51 now you are annoying me. I am not fit at all, in fact I am very ugly.
Title: Re: One-off 69er promotion/play-off special Post by: Talk Talk on Thursday, April 22, 2010, 20:03:35 now you are annoying me. I am not fit at all, in fact I am very ugly. So am I. A match made in heaven. Title: Re: One-off 69er promotion/play-off special Post by: One F In Fitton on Thursday, April 22, 2010, 23:39:20 This thread's gone down an unexpected road.
Wierdly, I'm keen to see what develops........ Title: Re: One-off 69er promotion/play-off special Post by: spacey on Friday, April 23, 2010, 07:48:13 You'll have to run fast to get away from me honey. Smooth like an Anarcho-capitalist Pepé Le Pew Title: Re: One-off 69er promotion/play-off special Post by: Red Frog on Friday, April 23, 2010, 09:30:26 You could run a lookalike competition like the hilarious one I kicked off here a few months ago.

Title: Re: One-off 69er promotion/play-off special Post by: Red Frog on Friday, April 23, 2010, 09:44:52 You're welcome to rip mine off, no royalties, nothing. Frankly, if you're selling the zine to 40,000 townies at Wembley, I don't think we need to worry about the little band of TEFers who'll have already seen it.
Title: Re: One-off 69er promotion/play-off special Post by: crystall Tips on Friday, April 23, 2010, 12:39:21 Well that's true. There's a lot to rip off on this site, not that many people will have seen it before.
I might use the line-up thingy - cheers. I also hadn't thought of taking the fanzine to Wembley tho :doh: We shall see. Title: Re: One-off 69er promotion/play-off special Post by: Ardiles on Friday, April 23, 2010, 13:12:35 On the morning of the play off final in 1993, I threw up in the sink while I was brushing my teeth. This caught me quite by surprise, but also made me realise the extent to which I was truly bricking it. It stayed that way until the final whistle 8 or 9 hours later.
I very much doubt I would be able to do anything on play off final day other than get myself to the ground and drink alcohol. I would be completely unable to function in any other way...and that would include selling fanzines. Good luck if you manage it, though. Title: Re: One-off 69er promotion/play-off special Post by: crystall Tips on Friday, April 23, 2010, 13:25:56 Yes that's kind of what I was thinking.
If we have to go to Wembley it's all I can do to stop the nerves taking over. Won't be taking a box of fanzines there, maybe just a handful. Title: Re: One-off 69er promotion/play-off special Post by: crystall Tips on Saturday, April 24, 2010, 08:31:49 ok, so we're heading for around 30 pages for the zine.
Anyone still wanting to contribute, deadline is tomorrow lunch-time ish. Title: Re: One-off 69er promotion/play-off special Post by: Bob's Orange on Saturday, April 24, 2010, 09:40:57 Photos of Town fans in different locations around the world? I have some pics from the Taj Mahal, South Africa and various places in Europe whilst wearing my town shirt that I would be willing to let you use. Sure Bankok and China Red would have some great pics as well perhaps?
Title: Re: One-off 69er promotion/play-off special Post by: Crispy on Saturday, April 24, 2010, 09:54:38 Ill buy a copy if this comes about.
