How cool are the Blockheads?

[chaypup]

My mate got The Blockheads to sponsor his kid's football team, that's pretty cool in itself but after he supported them last night in Swansea he asked them to a match and they turned up!

Brilliant guys!

That's brilliant - could make some money on the replica shirt sales!

Didn't Wet Wet Wet once sponsor a local team?

I know whose name I'd rather have on my footy top :-)

Having spent many years coaching kids and struggling to find sponsors, and also being a big fan of the Blockheads and NWR in particular,
I am pleased for you and at the same time extremely envious, but well done Chaypup!

[White Cloud]

That is uber cool!

A great touch by the guys.

[PlungerModerno]

I'd say the blockheads are very cool.

I saw them a week or so ago at the O2 Brooklyn Bowl. They are still uber cool - they somehow remain edgy and are totally having a blast. Still not convinced by Derek The Draw, mind you.

That is such a great thing to do. Much respect.

Skint (Norman Cook's label) sponsor Brighton & Hove Albion - always looks odd on match days around here when people wander around with that emblazoned on their chest!

Well done Big Collins! (Back row, far left)
Not my doing at all, just sharing the fact that they did it

So, so cool...

Maybe don't let the kids hear some of the lyrics, though....

[Marvin]

They'd make a freezer look on with envy.

[Dazed]

What? They played swansea last night??

Why did no one tell me

[yorks5stringer]

Thought they could have gone in defence and made a few Block tackles or Headers...?

[spectoremg]

Nice touch with the football team, nice to see a band giving a sh%t.
nb. when Norm's really old, even older than he is now, he's going to look very, very scary!

[miles'tone]

Sub-zero.
That is brilliant, nice one!

[Drax]

Great story, restores your faith. Those tops are excellent

[TimR]

Superb!

How did he explain to the kids who they were?

[lurksalot]

Great story
