Jaggernaut Posted May 3, 2013 Report Share Posted May 3, 2013 Leave it as a mess and name it the Jackie McNamara stand. Stabilise the ground, call it the Dick Campbell Stand, Lay some foundations, call it the Ian McCall Stand, Erect half of the structure then do a runner, call it the Jackie McNamara Stand, Erect a spanking new SPL-standard stand, call it the Alan Archibald Stand. Or, Get a battalion of homeless gnomes........ 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gettingjaggy Posted May 3, 2013 Report Share Posted May 3, 2013 (edited) Told my Caley Thistle supporting pal about this. He wants to steal it for their open end. He did say, however... Brilliant idea and get it sponsored by Dobbies. ...that we should really get it sponsored by Gnomebase. He said he could imagine the cries as a gnome met its end after a wayward shot. Most of the crowd reacting in the normal way, save one poor fan shouting "JIMMYYYYYYY!" as a clay pipe or fishing rod soars skyward.

I'd certainly envisage a quite ignomeinious end for some of the wee chaps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jaggernaut Posted April 5, 2014 Report Share Posted April 5, 2014 Own up: Who has taken the gnomes-on-the-bing idea too far? http://www.scotsman.com/news/odd/police-uncover-stash-of-stolen-garden-gnomes-1-3365079 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Sunnylaw Jag Posted April 5, 2014 Report Share Posted April 5, 2014 I sometimes think we never took it too far. We never turned up at the first game of the season dressed as gnomes or with our beloved garden gnomes bedecked in red and yellow tucked under our arms.

partickthedog Posted March 19, 2019 Report Share Posted March 19, 2019 Bing could be a place of companionship and encouragement for gnomes who feel socially excluded, ie Billy Gnomates 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ARu-Strathbungo Posted March 19, 2019 Report Share Posted March 19, 2019 There is a team in England called Lewes FC who have a similar 'bing' as us … they came up with the idea to use beach huts. Wouldn't that be cool to have a hut with a fridge and a cooker and some decking for your deck chairs? [no I have not been drinking].

Jaggernaut Posted March 20, 2019 Report Share Posted March 20, 2019 The resurrection of this thread actually seems timely given the rumoured uncertainty over the training ground, which was also heralded with a fanfare and lots of media coverage. Getting on for 7 years of embarrassment now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AlgarveJag Posted March 27, 2019 Report Share Posted March 27, 2019 Seriously, I like their wee sheds. I'd happily do a bit of weeding and potting on a Saturday to get me through the afternoon. No planning permission required. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
