Get rid and we shouldn't have had it in the first place.

Well, hang on a sec there Yorks: you've used a Brightonmarkism in your earlier post. Which tickled me greatly.
Can't now say it was bullying.

Which bit was, and how am I bullying?
By using my old username which caused me lots of problems are you not trying to do the same thing?

Dick Swiveller · May 15, 2019

I think were loose wheel whine this poll.

Cheshire Cat · May 15, 2019

It's quite apt these days.

I don't think you are bullying. "Get rid and" was Mark on song.
No, I'm not trying to bully you.
Hope that clears things up.

I simply quoted the poll option. Keep it or Get rid. It didn't occur to me that he said it.

Judging by the mood on here the last 2 years can we go back to "home of the binfest"?

TheJasperCo · May 15, 2019

It's not even a particularly funny expression.

I should know, I've used it enough.

giveusfalmerplease · May 15, 2019

change it simply to #UTA

StonehamPark · May 16, 2019

Time for a change, each season I say.
There's plenty of NSC'isms to choose from.

Curry night hun? xx
Not buying it on principle.
When are the fixtures out? (apt for the summer imo)

etc, etc.

Djmiles · May 16, 2019

Were loose
Binfest
Fixtures

I bloody love NSC.

Tokyohands · May 16, 2019

If we have better results under our new manager I think we should change it to 'were shit'.

Ceramicists. Now there's a word that appears all too infrequently on this board.

Oh right, that's far more sinister than I thought it would be.

Gwylan · May 16, 2019

TBH, I hadn't realised that we still had it. The words are cut off on my screen, I wonder how many other people didn't know it was there

I agree and it grates on me.

tedebear · May 16, 2019

I'm with Thunderbolt, I thought it was in very poor taste

This whole thread is news to me.

I've been quite on/off with this place the last few years and t must have all happened during one of my "off" phases. Literally never heard of it until today, and it already feels like it's been done to death.

GloryDays · May 16, 2019

Why don’t we change it to “we weren’t at our best” in honour of our former king, and reference to the past-tense of we’ll lose.

Not as catchy but still be self deprecating. We wouldn’t have it any other way.

That puts a different complexion on my vote and now I would change it. I had forgotten the origin, it has become so much a part of NSC's lexicon.

Got something to say or just want fewer pesky ads? Join us... 😊

[Albion] "Were Loose" POLL

Were Loose. Keep? Or get rid?

Keep it. It's an important part of our history. Without it were loose!

Get rid. It's been done to death and is now boring, time to move on!
