All I can see is him berating anyone who has said it’s a bit of a pathetic song to be singing as “snowflakes” and saying they must want all singing banned, along with a bit of seethe that people don’t like his *** flag. Then later on admits he doesn’t go to many games That’s the comment there. I hate the song myself, but I just don’t understand the lack of woman and men of our club who don’t complain about the topless models for the strip launch. That’s where I see the double standards from the woman who says that the songs degrading to woman, but is happy for models to get their tits out to launch our new strips as well as another man claiming we’re a family club, but again we as a club allow that. I know it’s not our actual kit launch however when Bodog sponsored WBA there wasn’t that sort of kit launch from what I can remember. No chance their commercial team would allow that! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agree the topless models are poor, and more than a bit tinpot for us to be associated with. I’d say a song about fucking a dead corpse rotten is probably worse than the models though. I’d prefer to bin both. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah because Somerset Boab done that mad Boing Boing Boab for Bodog. I would imagine West Brom, a top flight English team at the time would have said in no uncertain terms would they want that to happen. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

D'Jaffo Posted April 28, 2019 Author Share Posted April 28, 2019 Correct. I found someones comment hilarious, it was along the lines of ‘that could be your sister or mother you’re singing about’ Yeah I found that funnyThe song is something the club can do something about now. The models thing is between Ayre and Cameron or our commercial team. I’ve no idea how much Ayre pays us but given he’s getting more and more negative publicity every day I wouldn’t be fussed if this was the last Bitcoin/Bodog strip we had. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Superhursty7 Posted April 28, 2019 Share Posted April 28, 2019 Not a fan of the strip thing when it first started happening it was a bit of any publicity is good publicity but now it's just sad outdated and embarrassing a bit like the stupid song. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
THEHonestman1910 Posted April 28, 2019 Share Posted April 28, 2019 I actually like the topless models. I like it even more when people get triggered by it. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ryanayr1987 Posted April 28, 2019 Share Posted April 28, 2019 The models are models if they didn’t want to do it they wouldn’t! They also get paid to do it so it’s not an issue of degrading women for me I just think it’s a bit crass! 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It doesn't bother me either, if the models are happy to do this type f work and they get paid for it, then it is fine by me. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

diegomarahenry Posted April 28, 2019 Share Posted April 28, 2019 The kit launch coverage has been the usual Faux-outrage tabloid stories while showing the picture, so the marketing works for Ayre. Very much a "ISN'T THIS SEXIST YOU CAN SEE HER TITS...LOOK AT HER TITS" kind of vibe. One of the stories went in to detail of how Ayr, under manager Stuart McCall are favourites to win the championship. The pictures are tiresome now, the first time it happened they were on the threshold of being acceptable in society, went through the shocking phase but are now just a bit creepy. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rb123! Posted April 28, 2019 Share Posted April 28, 2019 Had a thought today, with it pretty much guarenteed that Adams and Bell are out for the season that really leaves us with only the four fit defenders that started yesterday for next week and however long we're in the play-offs. Our only other person is Ecrepont who i don't think i'd like to throw in for the play offs so i was just wondering if for the play-offs would we be able to use Ferguson since Dumbartons season will be over and he'll have returned to us. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed but would highly doubt he'd be at a level to step up and come in for the play-offs, i could be proved wrong through as McCowan i think could come in a do a job if required. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’d imagine Ferguson wouldn’t be able to play for the same reason that @Skyline Drifter pointed out earlier in the thread as to why Higgins couldn’t. Has Adams been confirmed as being out for the season? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
