I'd like to see it rolled out across all the ground too,
surely when the sprinkers were on that would blur and smudge the artwork?

I just hope this doesn't encourage some amateur Raphaels' into thinking it's open season on spray-can art. Mind you, an original Banksy of his namesake might be a nice touch. :D

Wrap that round a paint can and get started on the mural of Fat Kitman... He surely deserves a spot up there with the best of them!

one of banksy's muriels got vandalised last night with silver spray paint... irony stacked on irony... his original (vandalism?) graffito was protected with a clear coat of anti-vandal paint!

I thought our deal with Macron was for bespoke kits. I've just noticed that Millwall's kit is based on the same template. We've been ripped off.

talking of kits... this is a bit different!

Spanish football club Cultural Leonesa caused a stir on Twitter after posing for their 2014-15 Segunda Division B team photo in their new tuxedo-inspired kit.

Bolton Wanderers wearing Fibrelec? kits that look like the Met Police XI , playing out of the Macron Stadium with a Yank as our most notable player, players who get homesick for Southampton, a distinctive shortage of razor-blades and a manager who is a walking conundrum. Yep, all the makings of a super season?

We are going to be having words on the train to Watford young man, give it large towards Horwich and you will have me and Bobo to deal with. :)

not really sure what difference it makes whose sponsor-name we have on the shirts - or the kit design - or the stadium name - or the nationality of one of our players - or facial hair, for that matter... but - hey! - each to his own! I'd take more notice of how we play, personally...
