So what does People's club mean?

[stoger]

I see the blue noses have "Peoples's club" as their official logo

 

So what does it actually mean ? People go to all football stadium's..so can they define it at all?

[sean]

I'll give it 3 minutes.

[Tosh]

It's like "the world's favourite airline"

[IgPig]

It means they don't have enough people to fill the club.

[Armin_Tamzarian]

They're that s**** that players, supporters, even the clubs owners don't want to be associated with them. Thus they coined the term 'Peoples Club' to try and preserve their anonymity.

[Stevie H]

it means "we are sponsored by tesco".

I love the fact it pisses you all off so much.

[Gilps]

I love the fact it pisses you all off so much.

 

It really doesn't. It just makes us laugh.

haha! as if. it's comedy gold mate.

 

you should be sponsored by disney.

[Guest efcrmagic]

Of course it doesn't, of course.

 

Night lovelys.

[Herbie von Smalls]

i think everything about everton is funny, some things are just mildly funny, some things are very funny indeed.

 

they really don't annoy me at all, except when they beat us. even then it's funny in the end, when they have signing sessions in virgin for the DVD...

 

they are the people's club because they have a strict policy on who they let in the ground. so strict in fact that it can sometimes lead to masses and masses of empty seats.

[matty]

Do they really think that a self-proclaimed slogan could make us jealous? Anyone could call themselves that. Preston, Darlington, Northwich Vics....

 

It's the fact that it's been done simply to try to hide a lack of success that makes it funny.

 

It's a bit like Highbury having 'The Home of Football' on its gates. very silly indeed.

yup, or perhaps the worst one of the lot, 'the theatre of dreams'. it's embarrassing feeling this need to brand your club in some way to try and create a bond with your fans.

Andy Johnson was quoted in the echo when he was signing dvd's that the derby was the 'greatest day of his life'.

 

Hardly the stuff of Ro-cky Ro-cky Ro-cky!!! films but there you go.

I suspect you're wasting your time pointing this out to any Bluenose because the suckers really have fallen for it lock, stock and barrel.

 

They don't seem to realise that 'self-styling' can end up making you look really ridiculous. It would be a bit like me declaring I was a Claudia Schiffer look-alike. If I said it often enough and made enough flags about it, I might start to believe it after a while and it could make me feel superior. But it wouldn't make it true (sadly) and it certainly wouldn't stop others around me having a real good laugh at my expense.

 

We have the status of the most successful football club in the country. We earned it, it's recognised everywhere and we didn't have to award it ourselves to make us feel superior:D

[matty]

Dammit, Janet, you're right!

 

[Bald Devil]

Theatre of Dreams gets on my t***, especially when twots like Linekar or Garth Crooks use it to refer to OT. It's feckin marketing. They don't allow it anywhere else on the BBC.

[Murphman]

yup, or perhaps the worst one of the lot, 'the theatre of dreams'. it's embarrassing feeling this need to brand your club in some way to try and create a bond with your fans.

 

 

I felt a black cloud come over my head when I read that, I feckin hate it when I hear that crap, especially from mancs.

[Leo No.8]

The only time I feel any kind of strong emotions towards Everton is on derby day at the ground, when I hear their scumbag hardcore singing stuff like 'Hou-Houllier, Hou had a heart attack' etc at which point I f*cking hate them.

 

Most of the time they're good for a laugh - their recent European 'advertures' were priceless. As is their 'we're above you' crowing after a couple of games when you know that inevitably as the season goes on they'll sink down the table and we'll end up about 30 points ahead of them.

 

Generally I'd say I enjoy being dismissive of them in an understated way.

So if it doesn't annoy you, then why reply on the subject?

Must annoy you too then. Dont blame you tbh

[Scally Bob]

Mancs "World's Greatest Club"

Barcodes "World's Greatest Supporters"

Everton "People's Club"

 

These are all stupid monikers made up by people who don't really want to admit the truth.

 

Liverpool "England's Most Successful Club". I know we don't use it, but there's no need is there?

[Guest efcrmagic]

Oh please, Liverpool are the worlds worst for living on pointless s****.

 

You wallow in it.

Give us an example to illustrate your ludicrous point.
