New Badge

Post by The OXman Cometh »

I was at the Oxford Beer Festival on Friday and was told that there is to be a new '12th Man' style badge in a limited edition coming out, anyone know anything about this?

Although early stages, a supporter has proposed and is keen to fund a new badge which is slightly different to the current offerings. It will be limited to 500 and be available before Christmas.

Let's have a new badge every week. No, every day. Or should that be hour or minute. Killing the goose.

'Killing the goose' is a bit apocalyptic isn't it?

I think we've gone the full distance personally on badges for 12th Man. But if someone wants to do it, why stop them? It's for a good cause isn't it??

Maybe a car sticker or something would be better. I like to wear my badge but not sure I want several to support the same cause.

When I quit smoking, part of the helpful literature I received gave ideas for things to do instead of lighting up.

My favourite was 'wear a wacky pair of socks'. My second favourite was 'buy a badge'. How I wish the 12th Man appeal had been around a couple of years ago............... :lol:

I'm not sure how either of those suggestions would help someone overcome their nicotine craving, although I guess by buying things it means you'd have less disposable income to spend on fags.

Also doesn't there have to be a supply of golden eggs before you kill the goose?

The 12th Man is open to everyone, it isn't one group or organisation running the show. Someone wants to make a limited edition badge and is stumping up his own cash to set it up.

It won't be sold until the 12th Man badges have nearly all gone.

Don't see the problem really, especially if that one idea raises a further £2000 from selling only 500. Of course, you don't have to buy one either.

Don't shoot the messenger 8)

Well if there's a 12th man home and away badge for alternate Saturday wear then surely there should be a 12th man training top badge to wear during the week.

No one has suggested the 12th Man Chris Wilder outfit badge yet.

Or how about a 12th man Kelvin Thomas suit badge?
