What IS a bobble hatter?

[Tooting Gull]

What do they look like? Do they actually have to wear a bobble hat, or is it a term that has come to represent a more generic group?

Let's build up the one true definition then, when we've established beyond any doubt what one is, perhaps we can have another thread on who is and isn't a BH.

dunno...I have one and a flask and a tartan rug ( and occasionally a hip flask)

Easier to say what bobble hatters aren't.

People who moan about bobble hats are the same types that moan about the horns in the family stand, women referees (women in football generally esp. female supporters), they're the people who moan when attendances swell on Boxing Day with kiddies in their new scarves - this was actually a criticism of the boxing day Yeovil game last year and I still can't get over that.

I'd rather be a bobble hat if that's the alternative.

I have no idea and got even more confused about the whole thing when someone else on that there other thread started typing booble hat - frankly theres nothing wrong with a bra and a jumper if you're cold!

[Fran Hagarty]

According to some it's people who travel on the supporters coaches! However, none wear bobble hats, anoraks or play bingo on the coach!!!!

 

[Goodfella]

It's an Uberfan with a cold head.

 

[ROSM]

i have travelled on supporters coaches, did once have a bobble hat (when I was 6) and also have in the past played bingo.

My bad.

Obviously not Attila then as I distinctly remember him trying to convince those who would listen early in the dark days that Greg Stanley had the interests of the Albion at heart. We can all make mistakes but having Gold on board seems like a minimal risk one to me.

Bobble Hatters!

Really? Did it go something like this? :

I bet you £50 (all proceeds to the Falmer fund) that Greg Stanley has Albion's best interests at heart. However, I'm all gob at the end of the day, so don't expect me to pay up in the event of me losing

Isn't that a highly self-contradictory thing to say? - what's to say that you're not making EXACTLY the same mistake about Gold that Attila (and, I reckon a few others too) made about Greg Stanley?

Except Stanley had already appointed Archer and 90% of the fans could see what was going on at the time, Stanley just happened to be a friend (I believe of Attila) and he didn't seem to want to see it. The meeting at the Concorde, chaired by Attila, when Stanley stumbled around in a stupor insisting nothing was amiss was about the same time. I am suggesting that Gold is a LESSER risk not that he comes without risk. if you reread my original post I accept that there is some risk with Gold.

You seem to be in the NMH camp if you think that there is a risk free alternative.

You are the epitome of a bobble hatter

Go and be a delusional twat somewhere else eh ?

If your powers of comprehension are that bad there's not much else I can say
