Does look loads better and more professional!

 

[Bob Latchford]

Disagree. Easier to see in winter time too .

 

[Nick]

Would they paint it or just use a different coach?

Yes... if you are Blackpool

 

[Covstu]

I know people wil say does it matter etc but for me these things can change people's mentalities about the club. If you look a professional outfit you tend to act like one. This reminds me of the team sky death star but no way as cool and alot less gadgets!

Why does it need to be easier to see in Winter?????

 

[jimmyhillsfanclub]

Correct Stu.....building & reinforcing the clubs image & identity......besides, it might be the only thing left that we are actually allowed to badge up without written permission from our insect overlords...

yes i am waiting for the stadium to become part orange/yellow very soon!!

I'd assume they'd spray it . I'm thinking Cuprinol DucksBack , that Ronseal is crap .

 

[Skyblueweeman]

Is this thread for real?

 

[jimmyhillsfanclub]

No, you're hallucinating weeman.....

put down the mushrooms lad.

 

[Bob Latchford]

I wonder if it's anything to do with his Celtic reign ?

 

[skybluebeduff]

Something else people may not know about, is the wheels on the bus, go round and round.

Agreed. To some people this will seem pointless and I can understand that view but I like stuff like this. We need to change mentality at the club and that means every little single detail. Good stuff. If we want to be respected as a proper football club we need to act and look like one.

For a good portion of the day I've heard

 

[bringbackrattles]

I can picture it now with all the players and Mowbray head banging and air-guitaring on the coach with Paint It Black by the Stones blasting out !

 

[sw88]

Strange thing to spend money on IMO, especially given we don't actually own the coach......

Not complaining though; a colour is a colour

 

[Speedies_Chips]

You can see from the headlights and the no. of axles that it isn't even the same bus in the 2 photographs.

Mr Anal. ha ha

 

[Ccfc1979]

If you listen to Mowbray talk on Sky Blue Player in the prematch press conference, he believes in all these things to inspire, motivate and unite and I agree. Feel we are very lucky to have someone who knows so much about the game and looks for any tweak, however small, to get the edge. If any team in the country needs to change the mentality of its entire club and fan base it's us!

 

[Samo]

100% has to be an exaggeration I've always thought.

 

[Bob Latchford]

Apparently , the female supporters bums don't look as big on the black coach... every cloud an all that .

 

[speedie87]

I know someone who works in a printing place and last season when Mowbray came in they were printing off all this motivational stuff for the players

 

[stupot07]

Agreed. Looks less like "the blue rinse brigade going on a jolly to Spain" and a bit more executive and professional.

Is this not how Jimmy Hill start the sky blue revolution? rebranding??

I can see where TM is coming from and it breath of fresh air imo.

 

[simonregis]

My biggest concern is whether to have net curtains or blinds? I guess TM doesn't really like the idea of nets, gives a gossipy image', so I guess blinds are the order of the day?

Is there any truth in the rumour that TM is doing an internal and external designing course?

 

[kg82]

It would seem so.

 

[We'll_live_and_die]

Harry Shaw has been re-branding of late and are dropping the orange themselves. They most likely gave the club an option to have a say on the colour as they're going white with an orange stripe on their new coaches.

 

[Bob Latchford]

Imagine it being sky blue and white :facepalm: the very idea. would stand out in the winter months too .

 

[Skyblueweeman]

It would seem so.

Slow news day when you're talking about the merits of changing the colour of the coach.

I'm liking TMs approach on little things like this to be fair but questioning why the coach colour is changing? Can't we make up some rumours about Adebayor coming here or something?!

 

[chiefdave]

Looks good, maybe not the most important thing to do on its own but its part of a bigger plan by TM to change the way people, including the players and staff, perceive the club.

On an unrelated subject I saw Adebayor in TGI Fridays at lunchtime. He had a burger so he's definitely signing for us.

Do you feel better now?

Phew. Normal service resumed.

And when I read your first sentence, I started thinking "no way....what are the chances". #alittlegullible
