It a sign that shows that the big boys want to get around the emerging Baghdad Bombers, Harvey Norman, the giant Australian-based retailer of electrical, computer, furniture, entertainment and bedding goods, today announced that they'd be joining Bagdad FFL team in the capacity of a joint major sponsor for the forthcoming 2010 season.

A press conference by Harvey Norman's CEO, Gerry Harvey, was held today as Baghdad HQ amongst a flurry of activity that saw electrical goods being given away to lucky club members.

The only hitch to the day happened when two opposition players believed to be Okey and Panda saw the the giveaway too good to be true and proceeded to snatch a V700Z Panasonic vibrator and X415B Braun toothbrush between them before scurrying into the carpark hand in hand. Don't ask!

In closing, Norman mentioned the sponsorship would be mutually beneficial with Baghdad players agreeing to wearing Harvey Norman products on body in this week's game.

In what looks great intra club practice game anyway with a 44 man strong squad of posting players, it'll be hard not to be impressed with breeno racing around the wing carrying a Yamaha High Definition 5.1 Channel Home Theatre System under one arm, or Sausage Roll taking hangers with a Grandhall 6 Burner Gas BBQ with Back and Side Burners strapped to his back or surely HawkPatrol will look the part launching from his Everton 4 Piece Queen Bedroom Suite.

Other products are yet to be confirmed but boy oh boy, you've gotta love the innovation at Baghdad. Baghdad Bombers GO GO GO!

He's cats2rise over here amos, don't give away his "alias" on other forums ;) lol.

In other news, I saw some grass growing on the far field to the left and some paint drying on the wall in the middle of the field.

Hope the CEO or board members of Harvey Normal don't come across the FFL forum AND take legal action at such a fabrication. Would hate to see the Baghdad Bombers taken to court and sued for an amount the club doesn't have :D

:D, mate, I swear I saw a Victor ride-on lawnmower in the Harvey Norman catalog, but Gerry swears they've got none. Would've been perfect for that grass.

FWIW, Gerry's a bit of a goose, Sausage Roll just told me he once compared Ireland's economic problems with the Irish potato famine, an event which saw the deaths of over a million people. Rather than apologise, he further incensed the Irish for their poor sense of humour, stating: "It doesn’t say much about a people when they can’t take something like that on the chin and get on with it." :D:D

He'll be a rort in the social club after game day :)

Actually with regards to the potato famine Gerry said he'd checked out the Demons training down at Mt Buller and said he'd never seen so many spuds in one place. If there's ever another famine he said he'd just send the Demons team and there's be enough spuds to feed everyone

Huge new just in is that Harvey Norman may be pulling their sponsorship from the Bombers and sending it to the Demons after only Eth Dog and Sausage Roll bothered to collect their gear before the practice match. This story might still have some legs.
