The Snootsworth AFCB Advent Calendar 2022

[Lord Snooty]

Tis that time of year chums!
Time to wrap up, sip a cup of Christmas cheer and begin to open up the annual Snootsworth AFCB Advent Calendar. Mind you with our Cherryboys barely playing this month, this calendar is going to be deprived of its usual match day japes.
Bah Humbug!
To our first window:
Why it’s Richard Hughes & Neil Blake!
Our recruitment team who have spent four months, yes FOUR MONTHS travelling the world to find a replacement for Scott Parker.
They did in fact work hard to build up a shortlist of excellent managerial talents worthy of the prestigious AFCB manager’s job.
They obviously interviewed Gary O’Neil & Marcelo Bielsa but who were the other reputable, prospective candidates?
Well here they are!


Harry Redknapp, internationally respected ex football manager & currently a consultant at AFCB.


Shaun Cooper, internationally respected & highly sought after youth coach at AFCB.


Internationally respected ex footballer Steve Fletcher currently working at AFCB.



Cherry Bear, internationally respected and world famous mascot at…AFCB.



Dean, internationally respected East Stand steward at errr AFCB.

December already? Good to hear from you Snoots.

With the World Cup on I had completely forgotten it was Christmas time. Fantastic start, Snoots but a three week wait for NNM, unbearable.

 

[JIMNNINA]

Unfortunately restricting the choice to reputable coves disqualified your lordship.

 

[Ken Baileys Ghost]

Hooray!

Those rumours that FIFA and the Qatari government had lured you away with a bulging sack full of cash to produce a special World Cup advent calendar are unfounded.

Snoot's 'carnaval' of mammary glands and pelvic protuberances will be upon us soon mercillously eclipsing all our posts ...

All Power to this annual coming of our Cherry Chum !

Bulging sack?

Carry on Teacher - I should say so !

With no AFCB(NNM) games, can we apply that rule to England games

Asking for a friend....

 

[Audenshaw Cherry]

Whoopee!

This, opening up the annual Jacquie Lawson calendar, and bumping the NEJ Christmas thread ............. it is definitely December 1.
Thanks @Lord Snooty.

Well done Snoots, always good to see your festive calendar

 

[Where's Yer Caravan!]

I think I signed off on Christmas Day last year. 1st December was always the time to return. Here for the Snoots!

Lesley Phillips and Roberto Martinez?

Thank you chums for the lovely warm welcome back!
The second day of our Advent Calendar; shall we take a peek?
You know there are pictures of Christmas time that gladden the soul and make us feel so happy:
The delight in young children’s eyes as they open a present from Santa.
Gran cuddling her youngest grandchild at the Christmas dinner table.
The tears in seeing a long lost relative reunited at this special time.

And here are some more recent pictures to bring you unbridled Christmas joy and delight.

Pictures that make you thank the infant Jesus lying in that yuletide stable:












Merry Christmas!
