Kid Icarus Posted September 28, 2023 Share Posted September 28, 2023 How do you not recognise that as Sam Fender? It feels a bit sellout-ish to me tbh. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Elliottman Posted September 28, 2023 Share Posted September 28, 2023 I thought it was Shar when they'd just done the outline. Had no idea it was Fender until someone has just pointed it out Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yorkie Posted September 28, 2023 Share Posted September 28, 2023 Mmyeah don't love that Fender thing, like. Weird mash-up of a local celeb and a global brand. Ultimately they've just turned a building into a billboard which seems unnecessary unless you're a local independent business trading during the Victorian era. I don't hate murals mind. How would folks feel about some NUFC ones around the town a la Leeds? I think the Bielsa one is brilliant; certainly the artwork itself anyway. If we were to win something I think it would potentially be pretty cool if done very well and ideally didn't have sponsors. For eg their Phillips one near the water has the SBOBET thing on his shirt (not in full but still visible). Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TK-421 Posted September 28, 2023 Share Posted September 28, 2023 So this Fender/Adidas mural, is that all it is, or is it somehow linked to the photo of him and Bruno, where they were both dripping in the 3 stripes, and seemed like it might be for some sort of advert / campaign?

I think the location has to be right and ultimately that means being supported by the people who live there. Not those who pass through the area even if daily. the Leeds ones are not universally liked, burley bankys who does a lot of the FTTC and elec boxes isn’t popular with everyone. That seemed to also open up the artwork to everyone. What if you don’t like football, ok my mural is of the pussy cat dolls and so on. That caused a lot of murals and witty or inspirational slogans to go up wherever anyone wanted in leeds and caused a big backlash. all great fun, until someone does a mural you don’t like next to your house. not sure where I’m going. I suppose my point is, they can look fantastic, but need support of local people who actually live on that street/location. Can be a bit Pandora’s box.

Aye it's not a straightforward debate like, as you say. If anything the Leeds ones just seem a bit too abundant (what is there, 17?) Kinda why I'm a bit "really?" at that Fender/Adidas one. Particularly seeing as it's ultimately commercially motivated; seems a bit unjustified. At least that Bielsa one is exclusively about celebrating someone who's positively impacted a community.

Calling this out for the shite that it is. Times have moved on - a reason they may be reluctant to play is because comments like these remain acceptable “jokes” or because of concern of being perved on while doing their jobs. Please don’t do it and remember that there are multiple female posters on the forum. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m just disappointed it only effects the shirts not the shorts otherwise the men’s game would also have been worth a watch on Saturday. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
