Order of the Spoon

Order of the Spoon

Critical_Lemon had what I thought was a good idea. To celebrate how crap we are and show that we can still have a laugh at the dire situation. We make a giant Wooden Spoon out of cardboard as an effigy or something to take to the stadium and leave it outside at the next home game or we all take a man-sized Wooden Spoon inside the stadium and health and safety be damned.

Good publicity, show that we can laugh at ourselves etc.

Sort of like gallows humour that makes supporting a team such an emotional experience.

Who's in?

Anyone know about spoon design? Maybe a chef or someone?

Next week, after we've beaten Sydney, we won't be bottom. So this poll will be irrelevant.

We have to get another penalty eventually.....

Well it seems that's all our side play for at the moment, is the penalty, rather than having a shot.

After THAT performance I don't think it's a question of IF we lose to Sydney.

If we play like that again next week it will be 4,5 or even 6 nil.

You got this bloke's phone number or email address? He looks like he knows a thing about large spoons

Great idea. Might as well have a laugh, everyone else is...

lol we could hold up the one from last season and ask the boys for one of similar or lesser value 

We need to start booing Gao when he gets the ball, if Herberts message isn't getting into his head booing him might.

WTF ?

Booing your own players is pathetic.
You should be f**king ashamed.

I wonder if Harry Redknapp will be available after Christmas

Or Ramos On the booing thing we can't just pretend we are happy with how the team is going, aside from these forums how else do they know??

whats kevin keegan doing at the moment?

Make a banner, directly try talk to Tony P? Or even try catch Ricky after the game.
Booing is something i'd never ever do and find it shameful when i see my fellow supporters boo our team.
The wooden spoon is a joke, but to be honest, its a stupid idea because its not going to brighten the spirits of any of the players.
Christ some of you guys are morons.

Serious business Cheeps.

Self depreciating humour = hilarious

Deprecating.

He'll be guttered that he spelt that so wrong!

worst f**king idea ever.  suggesting booing players and taking spoons to show we are last?  what a bunch of c**ts.

This man knows.

I thought this was a good idea at first, but the more i think about it the supider it seems.

don't let the big dogs get to you - stick to your guns

Wouldnt make this seasons signings such as Kwasnik or Durante happy. They signed thinking we could reach the top four. Im sure they dont like the thought of the wooden spoon

unless they're into bondage

If we had more fans I'd be all for it but I don't think we can risk the livelihood of the club itself by spooning away any belief they might have left.

That is just daft.  Someone on the team you support is playing poorly so you boo him and take away his confidence making him possibly play worse?  Defies logic.

The great chardonnay sneak

Frightened of making him play worse????  You mean it could get WORSE????? Been reading the posts and it seems most feverish want Gone gao (I mean Gao gone).  I'm not one to boo my own team at all and I'd be unlikely to boo Gao against the Jets BUT, lets not get soft......heads are quite likely to roll soon and while some heads at the Nix are quite firmly placed in the sand, I for one say of Gao,"OFF WITH HIS HEAD" .  Be gao Gone. 

Personally we had a couple good preseason games, our squad looked good on paper.
