Quote ="Shifty Cat"I was replying to this comment you left,
'Last season I took some friends of mine to a game. sat in the east Stand were squad members who were not playing. Most were unshaven, dressed in scruff and to be honest, resembled outlaws from a refugee camp'
You might have not mentioned you wanted them clean shaven,but why mention they were unshaven,it must mean you'd rather see the player shaved.How do you get I want the Trinitys' image 'stuck in a 90s grunge / chav un-proffesional timewarp ' from what i said.My reply had nothing to do with the photo of Smith,it was a response to your story of you taking a friend to watch Trinity play and players resembled outlaws from a refugee camp,dressed in scruff.When I go to watch Trinity play,the players who are not picked or injured are usually dressed in one or other of the clubs tops and tracksuits,so i don't know where your coming from.'"
Yes your right about "shaving," my apologies, but I stand by everything else and I honestly thought it helpful to pass on the comments made to me over the years
=#BF0040so don't shoot the messenger. Plus, "Where am I coming from"? My own eyes of course.
As a footnote, on Friday I was talking to an "all time great" ex Trinity player from the 60s who has attended numerous formal functions where players attend and he is dismayed by the players who think it OK to appear in beach wear, (flip flops included) and a generally unkempt appearance (Aussies being the worst culprits). Defend or deny this all you like but many [iaren't[/i impressed but on the other hand I can't think of one person who would be unimpressed were they to make an effort on all these occasion. However, I'm sure there are occasions when they do make the effort, and rightly so.
And so I now await to see the quality and quantity of investors, sponsors etc for the coming season.
