A Bit of Fun kitman

[Psmithy]

Another new kitman for this coming season , :thumbdown: most important person in club who knows the ins and outs off what players require before and on match days ,

Welcome to the forum, ex-Kitman! :smile:

The first thing that David Webb did when he came after Alan Little was to get rid of John Threadgold , son of Harry who was the kit man .

Dave the kitman is a legend does it for free

Dave the kitman is a legend does it for free

So what is the story here, do you know? Seems ridiculous that he isn't paid although I have never really understood what a kitman does. There must be more to it than washing and handing out 17 kits on a Saturday and washing training kit

Story is he forgot to put Eastwood's Jaffa cake on a china plate(he got a paper one) against Portsmouth and its been brewing since. The silent treatment spread to all and sundry. Punch ups ensued , team morale went down, the new stadium was put on hold whilst Ron personally got involved to sort the situation.

So the truth is finally out about why Fossett Farm was delayed.

now the kitman is being replaced we should be starting digging within days ! :dim:

Not sure brewing a Jaffa cake is sensible

the players (or more likely their wives and girlfriends) wash their own training kit.

There is a lot more to the kitman job than you might think.
It isn't just getting the shirts, shorts, socks numbered, named, sized, long and short sleeved, home and away, blood spares, tape and vaseline etc. Do you suppose Whitey has his own kapitan band? oranges, bananas, jaffa cakes, halibo, lucazade, water, robinsons barley water, etc etc.
Bio or non bio? lycra colour coded under kit wear!
The list of jobs is endless.
The shower/bath products....the great smell of brut won't do anymore; and all the different types of hair products (5 for Ben Coker alone).
Don't think it is an easy job; any and all player agent wants this stuff in the contract.
Away games are worse, logistical nightmare on the train.
And the kit man runs the timetable for the sun beds and it was the double booking when MP wouldn't give up his slot for El Tango which led directly to Philips leaving and after him the kitman .

I gave you the honest injun reason ref the Jaffa cake and you try to demean this thread with this rubbish

You should be ashamed
