My lucky hat has to go!

[Fan of Big Tone 𝕏 @mainstandpie]

This is my lucky hat which has been to just about every match with me for the last 30 years. I remember the day I bought it in a charity shop on the Isle of Wight as soon as I saw it I knew I had to have it.

Sadly it has now seen better days so it really does have to go.

Goodbye old friend.

"Lucky" hat? How many times have we been relegated in the last 30 years?

Kill it with fire!

@Fan of Big Tone I bought a Notts cap for a prize ages ago, but I never used it. Would you like it?

It's the one you can purchase from the club store.

I just looked on the official online store, it's neither of those current ones. This is black, with the clubs actual badge on the front. I don't want anything for it, I would happily give it you because it needs a nice home.

That’s very generous of you @Chris thank you , I was going to buy one from the shop but I’ll make a donation to PoN instead.

You've already donated a fair amount, please accept the hat as a gift from me to you.

I will thank you but I’ll still make a donation, nothing to do with the hat though.

I won't argue, but I'm happy the cap will go to a good home.

Well that's settled then and now tell us how you feel after being 'capped' by PoN @Fan of Big Tone

@super_ram I'm tempted to try to see if I can get you to give it, @Fan of Big Tone.   I do like the 'capped by PON' though.

Brilliant, I love it.

it looks like the cap has been well worn and must have been a favourite, as you need to live and die in them for caps to really start to fall a part. at least you will be sorted when you get the one @Chris is giving you. its worth noting, this must have been purchased whilst he was doing the raffles online and so, i think this hat will be validated as lucky. it would have seen notts make the playoffs successfully and promoted before its even been worn!

now that sounds like something special.  

[Fan of Big Tone 𝕏 @mainstandpie]

@liampie yes the hat was definitely well worn by me, it looked new when I bought it although it was in a charity shop. I’d have been interested to hear about its history I don’t think “magpie” referred to a football team it must have been something else, anyway it’s in the bin now and resigned to history.

Good job on finding a replacement for your lucky hat. It’s unfortunate that it will likely be discarded, but the memories of wearing it will always remain.
