Yes. Way too late with this squad.

The Proud history scarf is symbolic to the Lerner era.

 Surely we should include this in some sort of protest?
I've lost mine ages ago but I'm all for a bonfire made up of those scarves. "Proud history - bright future" Sick joke.
Well Mr Lerner how's about a statement from you explaining how this bright future is going to materialise? Oh and your shitting all over our proud history while over 200 trophies remain boxed up in the North stand basement. You never did build that trophy room you promised us.

Which trophies are these?

Do we get one of those special "participation" trophies that get dished out to the wheezy kids so they don't feel bad?

Well I can't name them all now can I?  When I went on a tour of the ground recently I was given this information by our tour guide.  His name is Keith and is an excellent tour guide.

Even if there are that many, which sounds improbable, ask yourself what type of trophies they'd be.

Well every trophy a club wins a replica is made. So 7 FA cups, league titles that kind of thing. Why are you focusing on this? The point is we were promised a new trophy room. Along with many other broken promises made by the owner. Let's focus on them shall we.

Let's be realistic. Us building a trophy room now would be the absolute epitome of irony. I'd rather we didn't just yet.

The trophy room was going to be included in the new North Stand, which is another thing Lerner gave up on.

The discussion was about the "proud history, bright future" and how Lerner has crapped all over our proud history. He promised a trophy room which didn't happen and our trophy haul is boxed up in the North stand basement. Obviously we don't want a new trophy room just now.

I've heard tour guides make up lots of daft stories. I'm not saying that these mysterious 200 trophies don't exist, although that's the first time I've heard about them and I've spoken to the club's (former) archivist on many occasions. However, there's probably a lot of friendly souvenirs and local competitions included and this is hardly "shitting all over our proud history".

I'd build a huge fuck-off trophy room with the lot in, and position it between the home changing room and the tunnel.

I'd build a huge "fuck off" sign and leave it in the dressing room. That's what I think of the vast majority of our squad now sadly. I'd most certainly put one on Fox's door too.
