Top effort, everyone and wish I could have been there.

Can't wait to see all the photos. This is the kind of thing I like about Hob Nob. It was a chance comment on here that sparked off Pants Day, and now Dom's post has snowballed into this fantastic gathering. Let's hope it works, but if not SSC will hopefully walk away with the fondest of memories of our club.

17 Bus, you can stalk me any day!!! :D

cheeryoleary Back from the post.

Awesome effort and a real feel good factor. You know those times when you do something selfless just to make another person feel good? Stuff that money can't buy.

Just took one of my artwork as I'm sure some better quality pictures will be here very soon.



Great picture of me there in the white jumper :P

I know BBC News were down there, not sure of the other reporters though, a great effort by everybody!

I think this whole evening deserves a "Back from the parking space" thread.

Anyway, very good turn out indeed. Funny how quickly it all snowballed. Shame I don't have any good pictures from it, or at least of the fans.

top notch people
nice to meet so many nobbers,feels like even more of a community club to me now
well done with that sign cheery!

great turn out at such short notice-2 or three TV crews, and radio types
reckon 250 fans is a good estimate, iselfed a quick head count when it was fullest and gave up at 100, and that was just those on the edges, not counting the "Mob"itself

really good, even with the one verse singing and people leaving early!just like a home game

whether coppell is swayed by it is another matter, but i feel better for making my voice heard if only in a small way
and i hope it makes him feel as proud as i was, no matter what his decision

well done anyone who made the effort
and anyone who feels left out, or wishes they could have come-the space is still there, and the lampost so stick summink on it


anyone got my picture from the news?sorry for inflicting my mug on the south of england-

What an effort. Well done guys - I'm proud.

There were 200 odd there I think. BBC, Radio Berks, 107, EPo, 2-Ten. Not sure about meridian.

As for images, see these wonderful links:
