I've heard they only let you in if you turn up in a Standard 8 or a Triumph Dolomite.

and what's wrong with a Triumph Dolamite?

 

[Tonylinc]

If you had one now in pristine condition it would probably be worth more than the whole of our first team!

Was a Herald better than a Dolomite? I remember my uncle having one for years.

I think any car in pristine condition would be worth more than our first team.

 

[SkyBlueUkeman]

Sharpen your pitchforks guys.

The Vitesse was far superior than the Herald! Although the Vitesse never had a pub named after it!!

Yeah had a few in there over the years HH ,even painted it once,what was that factory opposite ,Lawton tube,or some other motor factors producer
,(Radiators??):thinking about:

 

[Houchens Head]

Wasn't it Cov-Rad?

I was a bus driver when the blokes used to come pouring out of the Triumph just by Canley Crossing. Manic it was!

 

[wingy]

Thats the one HH ,the decline of all the big manufacturing producers in this City is the perfect metaphor in tandem with the clubs decline.

 

[Houchens Head]

Sad to say - and maybe a bit selfish, but that's the reason I moved here.

 

[theprince]

Standard/Triumph made some iconic cars. Triumph Stag, Herald, the Vitesse (especially the convertable. the TR1,TR 2 ,TR4 and TR6, the Triumph GTS, Triumph spitfire (the ordinary blokes sportscar.. the Dolomite Sprint, the 2000 mk1 and 2 and these were all built around the same time. 1970s/80s.

 

[Houchens Head]

Had a Triumph Stag. Then a TR6. Both were red. Beauts they were too!

[ashbyjan]

I am taking a supply of empty sacks to scoop up all the bullshit that will be generated from Fisher and Waggott - will have prize winning roses this year!!

Don't use fresh bullshit, Jan - it will scorch the roots. I'm sure there is plenty of old bullshit you could find.

 

[ashbyjan]

Oh I am sure this will be the same old bullshit recycled but repackaged - well rotted just like the club under these jokers

 

[Pez68]

and what's wrong with a Triumph Dolamite?

<br />
<br />
My first ever car was the Dolamite, 100 quid, rusty holes in it and passed its mot, great car.

 

[Up North Sky Blue]

will the new gaffer be sat in the middle of them?

 

[Steve.B50]

Just applied for an invite. Hope they have security !!

 

[ajsccfc]

Why, is someone after you?

 

[valiant15]

Id probably get nicked if i went,so stuff fish face,faggot and their little band of yes men.

 

[Tonylinc]

Bet they will want to vet the questions beforehand.

 

[valiant15]

And the people who attend!

 

[WestEndAgro]

I can't understand why these sessions only last for one hour, we couldn't even scratch the surface regarding our current issues, if we had three to four hours it might be worth attending.
One hour ? Waste of time !

 

[spudgun2000]

1 hr = 45 minutes corp clap trap, 15 mins for 1 vetted q due to the fact that the guy with the mike is some 2km away

 

[valiant15]

You can always stand outside and wait for fishy to turn up.

Ive got a Triumph GT6. Hence my Avatar picture.

 

[georgehudson]

what's the latest ?
of those who have applied how many have been answered ?
i know of five persons who have, & none have heard anything,
do C & W have to veto who applies for tickets ?
seems pretty much like a rehearsed scenario to me

 

[ajsccfc]

It's still 6 days away, the last one wasn't confirmed until the day before. They can't really veto as they didn't ask for details, just an email saying 'me please'.

 

[georgehudson]

in which case i'll await the openess as associated with our controllers

 

[ajsccfc]

The chances of them cross-referencing email addresses with known upstarts is quite slim, unless they've got some FBI-style surveillance going on in their secret mountain lair.

 

[ccfcway]

waste of time

"working towards a new manager"
"working towards a redcution in rent"

yadda yadda
