Dump The Hood

Haven't seen this mentioned on here, but a very worthy campaign indeed.

With matters on the field giving us very little to grumble about and not a lot happening off it, the apathetic supporters of Nottingham Forest Football Club need something in their lives to complain about - and here it is:

I hate our mascot with a passion. I'd be more inclined to trust Dave Jones with my one year old than that freek.
 
Oh god just wait till Liz see's this thread! :ph34r:
 
This is my favourite:

''I say we go for Hellboy. He's red and he's got a gun. How much more Nottingham can you get? Cheers.''
 
Sherwood was shit too, but the kiddy scarer is much worse.

We used to have a Squirrel, which is very LTLF.
 
I think Disney Robin Hood would be better for the kids!!! Forest could also single handedly drop the unemployment rate in Nottingham for this one
 
In fact how about we persuade Kevin Costner to turn up on a match day?! Sure he'd be very obliging

Thats brilliant Laugh

Our current mascot always looks really creepy, like a ***** who's trying to ensnare kids into his merry men.

Bring back the robin hood squirrel.
 
When we had Sherwood the bear we were, quite frankly, shit.

Since Robin has joined us we have got progressively better season after season.

I wouldn't want to tempt fate.

Keep Robin, send the bear to a circus.
 
Earthworm,

Have you written a book? about Robin? Can I have a copy please?
 
How about a bear and a dwarf in a squirrel costume?
 
It has to be the squirrel costume. There could be nothing more relevant to us fans than a squirrel mascot.

The Robin Hood mascot is cack and needs to go, and Sherwood The Bear is better off in the shallow grave i buried him in.
 
indeed
 
Disney's Robin Hood is a fox and therefore unviable due to the obvious Leicester connatations. However, the current mascot is creepy in my book, let alone young children's.

I never really understood why we had a bear in the first place. There was no connection with Nottingham, apart from the name 'Sherwood'. The squirrel, dressed in a Robin Hood costume was much better. Squirrels live in Sherwood Forest and no other big club has claimed a squirrel as their mascot that I know of.

Whilst a robin dressed as Robin Hood would be plausible, bird mascots tend to look ridiculous so I'd rather leave those to the Sadpies.

Bring back the squirrel!

What about a Brian Rice mascot?
 
I was about to suggest actually getting Brian to do the job, dressed as himself. In period kit. Number One on the back, obviously, or maybe tiny numbers, counting up to about 20.
