I heard it was going to be Harry Beautyman, but there were concerns he might elbow it off the plinth as he goes to shake the winning captains hand
BRILLIANT.

Andrew, Duke of York was interested but has a booking in Pizza Express, so they're currently in talks with Harry and Meghan as she reckons she can make a Netflix documentary out of it.

My attempt at a little bit of light humour seems to have gone over your head, beechcroft.

Light humour yes, but would any of us actually bet against it happening? :? :lol:

FWIW my money is on Jones as captain but is substituted in the closing stages and the armband passed to Theo for a few mins so everyone gets their way.

It looks to me like we have sold just over 300 since early Monday morning so should be close to 17,200 now.

Sales are slowing (around 50 today?) so the final total may only be a couple of hundred more.

It's great to see the town getting behind the club and seeing some local pride :)

Ahead of a Bank Holiday weekend, we must now recommend you do NOT make any more orders for DELIVERY if you want your items to be delivered before our trip to the Arch on Sunday 11th May.

Orders can still be made for collection and thanks to the incredible hard work of our very small team of staff, the majority of orders already made for collection are available to collect!

Orders that have already been made for delivery have been sent out as and when possible and whilst we cannot guarantee an exact delivery date for orders made at any time, every effort possible has been made by ourselves to ensure they have been received by Royal Mail at a time to be delivered before our trip to Wembley.
