I completely get Toby spending time at the fanzone and with kids outside the stadium but feel he's a great loss on the pitch so is it time to make a second? Bring back Tina maybe? Personally I'd create an identical one to Toby, no difference at all. And create a story about Toby finding his identical twin Teddy Tyke (or something like that). The new mascot would wear the away kid so both kits are getting exposure. One inside the ground, one outside.
Nah I'm definitely stupid enough that iddo something and my head would fall off traumatising the kids. Actually on second thoughts, yeah I'll do it
It would be the best thing the club has EVER done if they made up a back story that Teddy had been kidnapped as a puppy by the evil Carl Ponway and he had only recently escaped.
How about another two so that we could model all three strips? Timmy Tinpot and Hugo Happyclapper. Then at half time we could have some Jeux Sans Frontieres style tournament. Suggested games. Tie em up to a post on the centre spot with bungee rope, give em a bucket and get them to collect as much water as they can from the sprinklers. Send em off to collect as many pints as lager as they can from the catering kiosks. Flatbread throwing. It's three am. Maybe I should go back to sleep.
We would need to move a few of the fringe players on before we could bring in Teddy and Tina. Got to balance the books.
Would rather bring back rickets than Tina Tyke, was a terrible mascot (imho), but the idea for a Teddy Tyke has some merit.
This could give the players an incentive to make the match day squad….. not picked fella? Off you go and get the dogs head on. Write it into contracts or something.
