Re: Lofty the Lion: Good thing or bad?
Good, especially for that priceless moment a few years ago when Norwich complained to the referee during a game that they were confusing Lofty with Bolton defenders.
Next day the Sunday Times showed pictures of Lofty and Stellios side by side, so readers could see the resemblance.
Hence why since then Lofty has had to wear the away shirt at home.

If for nothing else, Lofty deserves our undying respect for the day Wolves fans complained about his posturing saying they found him 'quite intimidating'!

My brother wrote to the Wolves fans, gently explaining that 'Lofty is not a real lion.'

Haha, good point. I remember chuckling as he stood there pulling pieces of the pies out of his mane that the Wolves fans had rained down upon him.EverSoYouri wrote:Bruce Rioja wrote:We can land on a fecking comet yet still we have a grown man parading round as a lion. It's ridiculous.

Not advocating mass-murder as an entirely positive experience, of course, but it had its moments.

Actually. it's a bug bear of mine that the club don't. nor have ever understood that people turn up for night matches hoping to score food. Anyway, that's another thing.

Not sure who these two blokes are, but they definitely seem pleased to meet Lofty Junior! In fact, the one on the right appears to think that he's pulled!! Did you, LE??

replace halftime mongkick or whatever with this-

and the winner gets to win a copy of tasword2 after they follow lofty.
