Good evening how we all doing?

Would anybody be interested in promotion t-shirts with the slogan 'GULLS PROMOTION PARTY 2012' on them?

I've made a few inquiries up here in Edinburgh and I can get 100 tshirts @£4.80/shirt!

They would obviously be yellow with black or blue writing on the front!!

Also if you wanted to personalise your top (like i would) its around an extra couple quid tops!!

For Example

Front of Shirt

GULLS
PROMOTION
PARTY
2012

Back of shirt (personalisation)

Scottish Gull
87


What do you all think? or is this a complete

Sounds interesting, any chance you could get a pic of what this shirt would look like?

I'd have one Scottish. Must be a XXXL though

It's a good idea mate.

How did you do your avatar by the way as i want to do mine like that but haven't got a clue how to do it. Could you help?

Steady, I seem to remember 87/88 needing just 1 point from the last 2 games for automatic promotion, a t-shirt coming out with something along the lines of "the gulls winging thier way into div.3" appearing which quite a few brought, things went badly wrong in the end.

Agree with forever, think it is way too soon to be thinking about things like this. If we blow it then we'll look like absolute tits. Just wait, if we've secured promotion then fair enough but until then, no, too soon.

Steve - I'll try my best to get a pic up

Andy - lol brilliant and I'll pm you buddy

Forever and TUFC - i know this seems premature but a bulk order takes the company 2-3 weeks to do and also I respect your position on this, i dont want to overstep the mark i thought it was a good idea, and i should've described the thinking behind this so on that front I apologize. I should have asked for numbers and then take it from there!

I meant it's a good idea.............................so long as we get promoted! :na:

Very true................................mind you i dont mind looking like a dafty

It is a good idea, I think wait to see how the league table looks after Barnet away/Accrington home, we will have a fair idea by then as to whether, the team are going up or not, and would still cover the 2-3 week lead time.

I hate things like this. I seem to recall Exeter had some made for their Johnstones Paint final appearance, although they lost to Brentford and never made it to Wembley. We've achieved nothing yet so sorry if you think I'm a killjoy but count me out.

I realise a bit of planning needs to be done in advance for this sort of thing. But we need to cater for everyone & the significant number of pessimists among our fan base make up a potentially lucrative market also.

Therefore I'm considering placing an order for some 'TUFC - We didn't want to go up anyway' T shirts. I believe they have a back print with the slogan 'League 2 feels like home'.

Difficult to judge how well they'll sell, but I've already had an enquiry from Brucie

I seem to agree with SG on this one, I mean you can just see it can't you. We get goodness knows how many t-shirts saying "We are going up", or something like that and we don't get promoted. If we do really well and are automatically promoted before the last game of the season (Hereford Away) then it's a great idea. But other than that it's not a very wise proposition, IMHO.

no probs just throwing it outthere

well id like one!!! i have faith...dave and the doubters are just grumpy pants!

Premature, but a good idea.
