Bonzo “entirely humbled”as CandH flag arrives at stadium

Ckaret-&-Hugh-Flag

The huge ClaretandHugh flag featuring the club’s two greatest icons – Mooro and Bonzo has arrived at the London Stadium and will be unveiled at the match against Swansea – bringing we hope a much required change of fortune.

Here we are giving you a sneak preview of the artwork  but on Saturday we will bring images of the flag in all its glory from inside the stadium.

An the club’s greatest living legend Bonzo admitted when we contacted him that he “was entirely humbled” to take a place of honour alongside his own greatest hero – the incredible Mooro

When we broke the news he said: “This is one of the lovliest  things that has ever happened to me. I am so thrilled – thank you to ClaretandHugh and every single fan. I am entirely humbled by this – thank you!

“I absolutely love those fans  to pieces and have always had a wonderful rapport with them – they have been fantastic to me throughout my career and beyond.”

It was entirely our pleasure Bill and it’s us who should be us thanking you for everything you have given this great club of ours.

THANK YOU AND COYI

    • Gonzo says:

      The names of the contributors are the claret pinstripes that you can see in the blue stripes so you are in there mate

    • Glad ur there Nige…you deserve it for your years and years you old rogue

        where else could i be,
        even last night, as bad as the game was, i still enjoyed being at the game.

        • I mean on the flag. We were fine in the first half but FONTE – bloody he;ll

          • mywhufc says:

            I pointed out last night though,
            if we hadn’t signed him, then what would we be left with.
            He was a squad filler that shouldnt be playing as much but injury dictates he does.
            The cost proves that you never get any quality in January, no matter how much you pay

  • John says:

    Hey I’m honoured too!! I got Claret & Blue Army” which I suggested. At one stage Sean said you’d go for COYI’s which Kumb went for I think in the end

    Nice one Hugh. I’m loving it. Look forward to seeing it in place. Hope it brings us a change of luck.

  • FUGMASTER says:

    Agreed, superb flag Hugh; are you selling copies / Stickers..Love to have one on the car!

  • John says:

    Old Tom, what’s the point mate? So what if it is an advert for C&H, the more users Hugh gets the better for the site. Hugh provides his time for us lot to enjoy and post, if the site has no visitors it would be pretty pointless wouldn’t you say? The size of the letters are irrelevant what is relevant is the clolours and the images.

    Whether you like the site and it’s contents is up to you mate and of course like us all you have a choice. Do you have a site of choice where you do post regularly? I’m sure it ain’t perfect either as I’ve not come across one!

    Don’t get worked up fella it ain’t worth it.
