    No you're not. I think most people appreciate the effort that went into doing it, and the sentiment behind it, whether or not it's to their taste.

    I think its quite pretty. Love the animation toon like characters on the other one. Not many clubs of our size can say we have a giant painting outside their stadium.

    I love it. Not keen on the harry the hornet bit, but I'm a mature adult not a child/******.

    I also think there's a bit too much blue sky and not enough yellow.

    It's not particularly my cup of tea but I think it's been pretty well done (although I went past it before it was finished).

    So this is a sponsor thing?

    I take it all back. I just hope those watty fans with the twitty accounts make it clear that the club fought this idea with every part of themselves.

    Phone?!

    You don’t ‘phone’ with your phone these days.

    You join the shoutbox/check your all important fantasy football progress.
