The word "blow" is used but clearly not as you said, don't worry, your ability to tell whoppers is falling apart. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oaksoft Posted September 19, 2018 Report Share Posted September 19, 2018 (edited) We should pick the biggest names on the planet and simply announce that they are lifelong Buddies. Then start publicising that, linking them with all sorts of good causes and leave them to publicly deny any affinity for our club. It worked for Bob Geldof during the first Live Aid. Live on TV, he publicly announced a huge list of stars who would perform and then dared them to pull out. The rest is history. Massive kudos to anyone who can scam a journalist to put this in the Daily Record or whatever. I'll start it off. Helen Mirren was first lifted over the barriers at the age of 7 and watched her first match on the shoulders of her uncle. She has been a lifelong fan ever since and donated money to the W7 group for assorted banners and stuff. She was inconsolable for a month after the Hammarby match.

Strange though it might seem ( it is true) my wife and I met Helen Mirren in Stirling. She is tiny but built well in all the right places. Don't mention Hammarby.. Please. By sheer chance in Stockholm when visiting a Gymnasium (School) I found myself at the offices of Hammarby FC. But the first part of your post is not fantastical but would sure take some work.

Factual I have the maximum permitted number... 30000 with around 600 requests to connect outstanding and 38000 followers and up to 55000 readers of articles on leadership and management. But... Except on this Forum or in the past for Work Purposes, I keep a low profile although I have appeared on TVi Azerbaijan! Strange but true and completely irrelevant. There must be a good few celebs who are St Mirren Fans. We now have a Tech ical Director, why not Celebrity Ambassadors? I think I read one of your articles on leadership and management. I think it was called something like "the power of irrelevant thoughts - if you think it, just say it". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TPAFKA Jersey 2 Posted September 19, 2018 Report Share Posted September 19, 2018 Dougie Henshall is a definite St. Mirren fan. Sadly the real Paisley celebs like Butler and Nutini are both Tim. Actually correction. Not sadly in the case of Butler. I wouldn’t want him as a Bud because he’s an utter cock. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
