Really good to see the club finally coming through on the hexagonal goal net front. Hope this finally shuts up all the moaners and naysayers. Bravo Roland and Katrien! Hexagonal goal nets red army!

    Hopefully they'll find a keeper to guard them shortly.

    Its par for the course though isn't it? Fiddle about with pointless stuff that doesn't matter while the rest of the club comes crashing down around them!

    What a pile of shit our 6 players won't be finding the back of them
  • Don't you just know that the first time somebody scores a goal the ball is going to bounce back out at three times the speed it went in on account of the hexagonal netting and our new goalkeeper is going suffer concussion as a result of being hit by it.

    They've put this out on purpose to see if we will bite. Surely that must be the only reason this has been publicised in any way?

    "Square goal netting caused last season's relegation (and the protesters, obviously!) - lessons have now been learned and this should address our defensive frailties" - KM

    "I'd like to thank the amazing CAFC CEO for her dedication in getting this deal done" - hexagonal goal nets

    Where's scarfy????

    It is unsurprisingly a cost cutting measure dressed up as efficiency. I notice it wasn't mooted at any fans forum meeting.

    From bees' honeycombs to the Giant's Causeway, hexagonal patterns are prevalent in nature due to their efficiency. In a hexagonal grid each line is as short as it can possibly be if a large area is to be filled with the fewest number of hexagons. This means that honeycombs require less wax to construct and gain lots of strength under compression.

    So you did. I have elaborated, I hear they may introduce skew hexagons soon.
  • Maybe a nice hexagon crotchet cover for the new sofa to match ?

    Heard a rumour that we've just accepted an undisclosed bid from Burnley on the goal nets . Expected to sign a 3 year deal there tomorrow. Please don't shoot the messenger, only relaying what I've been told from my source .
