Lol. Looks like an escapee from 'Top Cat' - anyone else old enough to remember that?

No. Just you.
The likes of me, and other regular posters such as officer dibble, are far too young.

I remember seeing Grimsby's mascot at Bolton and thought it looked like a prit-stick. Here it is in all its glory.

I'm way too young - I wish I were old enough though, because if he's anything like that mascot then surely he's the boss, he's a pip, he's the championship?

He's tip top also.
Seriously, it's not *that* old is it?

Oxymoron
Contradiction, paradox even, but not an oxymoron.
And not only am I at 21 old enough to remember Top Cat, so is my 15 year old brother. It was still on up to a few years ago, and may even still be.
Back on topic that is a seriously pathetic mascot. And 'JJ and B'?! Why isn't the new one this:

Thank you, Pru. I'm sick of correcting people on this one. 'Terribly good' is an oxymoron.

A few years ago I'd nowt to do one Saturday afternoon, so, for the sheer hell of it I went watching Bury v Northampton at The Gigg.
About five minutes in and I end up being joined in the stand by the Bury mascot, Robbie The Bobby, who, sits himself down, pulls off his massive napper - thus revealing the old bloke inside, who then proceeded to put said head in a black bin bag, pull out a Briar and blaze it up.
All around (ok, nite quite all around) children's dreams were shattered.

Last time i went to bury I won third prize in the half time draw. A football.
Fortunately not signed by the team.
Gave it to a kid three rows away.

It is indeed, but to quote the good folk of
Websters Online Dictionary:
"The most common form of oxymoron involves an adjective-noun combination"
Quality (adjective) Mascot (noun).
