beep0608 Posted January 7, 2011 Report Share Posted January 7, 2011 (edited) I mentioned this some time ago, but I ruined my Jags tartan scarf at the end of last season by getting it mixed up with other clothes, and it went into the washing machine, without me knowing. I liked it, and would like another. They're no longer available from the club, but the company who do the tartan said they would do a run, when I asked a while back. I can't remember the minimum number of scarves involved, or how much they'd cost each, but is anybody else interested? It wasn't a huge number, something like 8 or 10 scarves possibly. If even a few of you express an interest then I could ask again. I'd be more then happy to involve the club, in case they could profit in any way, though I'm not sure how. Even if we got a few of you interested, we could maybe do something like split the costs, have one scarf each, then...auction off the spare scarves, or something? I'm not looking for personal profit here though. Any profits could go somewhere appropriate, though not necessarily into a bucket outside Dens....charity begins at home. For now though , could anybody interested say so here please? Edited January 7, 2011 by beep0608 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clinically Depressed Posted January 8, 2011 Report Share Posted January 8, 2011 We can't wear colours at pitchside, but I'd be interested in one, or possibly a 2nd as a gift for every other possible moment in life, again as others said, as long as it wasn't hugely expensive. (only tartan). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I lost one a few years back and it hurt like hell, can't imagine losing 3 in a year ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MerryHell Posted January 8, 2011 Report Share Posted January 8, 2011 I was going to get a new scarf so it may as well be a Thistle one - count me in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beep0608 Posted January 8, 2011 Author Report Share Posted January 8, 2011 (edited) I was going to get a new scarf so it may as well be a Thistle one - count me in. I didn't expect that many responses, but that's great. Last year Geoffrey (Tailor) in Sauchiehall Street, just across from the dental hospital, said they would do a run, but I can't remember what the minumum order was. I'll find out but I think it was only about 8 or 10 so we already have that many. The price may reduce depending on how many we order. The more the better hopefully. Scotweb do them, according to their site, but being one-offs they're expensive, about £85 each, which is much more than I'd be willing to spend, especially as I'd assume Thistle would get nothing from it, or not much anyway. If it came to that I'd rather do something through Thistle. Maybe we can anyway, maybe even via Greaves as they might have the contract for any Thistle merch. There may be different options in terms of quality of material. When I bought the Thistle tartan scarf about 3 or 4 few years ago I loved it, but it was more expensive than your average scarf. Fair enough I thought. You get what you pay for, but it's a one off, unless it ends up in the washing machine. Doh! Leave it with me folks. I'm confident we'll be able to do something.

If the club saw this level of interest and was smart, they'd simply buy several big rolls of the tartan then engage with a couple of local's to cut and sew the scarves for next to nothing. Result?: Profit for the club, not for the manufacturer who will cream it all off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
