I'm assuming that like most things it was started by ourselves on JKB Anyone know? Thanks Was it not something to do with Rodney telling a fan that we would be bringing in two players of 'world cup' satandard while queing for a pastie? Sure it was reported on Talk 107 or something like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redjambo Posted January 7, 2010 Share Posted January 7, 2010 Hopefully they started it because it is a terrible joke. I don't know, I kind of like it. It provides just the right amount of bathos when someone comes on with another wild rumour (or did anyway, before rumours were given their own wee sandpit to play in). With Greggs in one hand, and "Taxi!" in the other, rumours were unceremoniously blasted from the sky like sitting pasties. As it should be!

I P Knightley Posted January 7, 2010 Share Posted January 7, 2010 I had it explained to me a couple of years back as relating to a transfer gossip thread where a poster had as his source a couple of track-suitted reserve team players chatting about the HMFC squad while waiting to be served in the eponymous baker and confectioners. No one at the time argued that explanation so it seems likely that JKB was the original source. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No one at the time argued that explanation so it seems likely that JKB was the original source. More or less correct, but it came from someone on http://www.mycousinsmywife.net who gleefully reported what they overheard as being a statement of fact. Posters on JKB used it sarcasticly after that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

djf Posted January 8, 2010 Share Posted January 8, 2010 Peebles Jambo started a thread revealing the real reason George Burley had left the club. About 6 months after it had been debated to death in great, great detail. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
