decorating the Crown

does it have to be stanley shirts though ? although I live down here, go and watch stanley as often as possible I still go watch my other team:cool:...of which I have plenty of old tops and scarves from years gone by ...dont worry its not rovers or burnley...:D:D:D
 
I think the shirts need to be Stanley as it is a Stanley memorabilia pub, but it can look good with other stuff as proved with the old collection of scarves.

And we have one scarf to start the collection donated by our new Scottish friends.

well if thistle can put theirs up i would hope you will be allowed to put one of yours up:D:D are you going next saturday to the chelsea game?ill be there:):):)
 
haven't a shirt thats not already mentioned - but did acquire the signed interview backdrop from our first conference season, if of any use ?
On a separate note, I wonder if the licence would permit a name change to the historic 'Stanley Arms'.

I agree. How about scarves from other teams supporters who also follow Stanley on a regular basis. I'm sure that a fair few who attend the FES fit into this category, of which I am one.
 
Shirts and memorobilia should be stanley.. scarves and especially pennants should/could be opposition we have played... any other teams would IMHO be a bit pointless.
 
But i think it has to be kept to certain section, the shirts i mean. Pictures yes, all over.....but we've got to remember its not just a pub for a Stanley fan. The Crown has lots and lots of local regulars and people who come in at nights, it cant be tacky, or over the top, because people like to drink in a nice looking pub.

I'm all in favour for the shirts on the roof/walls....top idea but we've got to be careful that it isn't too much as I know it will put customers off....
 
i have got the blue asfc shirt with h.b.c on the front from the 1st season in the conference,it belonged to peter cavanagh and has number 2 and CAVANAGH on the back,it is the original shirt and is signed by CAV and was given to me at the end of the exeter city away game,i you want it p.m me and i will arrange delivery for you.

I think thats fair enough..scarves from stanley fans like me who moved here from another part of the country and now follow stanley as well as their first love footy team..so as soon as the word is given will wander down and hand my scarf in - I will even donate £25 to charity of the pubs choice if they put it up in a decent place !

and I have to say that having other footy tops in the pub other than stanley isnt totally pointless - it would show that the pub/stanley fans welcome all football fans regardless of which team they may support...its also a good talking point in a pub trying to guess which top is from which team..

I think you could start now buddy. Ask for Hazel or Smiffy and they'll put it in the right place. I'm not sure whether they are going to put things up as they get them or wait until a few things arrive.

fair comment I think in a pub other than ours. It is a Stanley pub and as such needs to be kept predominantly Stanley There aren't many shirts to go at in reality with just Stanley shirts. They've only been commercially available for around 20 years at tops. We'd soon be outnumbered with other tops and it would take away the effect of creating the Stanley timeline.




If anybody else wants to start handing in their shirts you could do so either at the Crown or preferably through me. Either way make sure you have your contact details stuck to the inside of it. The only reason I would say to hand it in through me is so that the OSC can lend it to the pub. That way ownership is retained and nobody can claim it as theirs other than the OSC. Everybody would know where to get their shirts back from in the eventuality that it is necessary.

Are you putting a list on here of the one's you want as some you seem to have more than one?:)
 
erm ... yeah ... what he said ...


I'll have a looksee on Sunday evening when I've an hour or so. Unless someone can beat me to it ... maybe use the link from Bagpuss's post with all the shirts on and tick em when we have home and away or summat?
 
I am still looking to add to the collection. I will list what we have shortly but in the meantime I am really keen to get any Scott Alty Insurance, Zeri or Mafco Motors shirts.
