bobby Posted April 9, 2004 Report Share Posted April 9, 2004 amazing........ I had that very discussion with a friend a while ago. They are not a city fan but I dragged them along to a game earlier in the season and they couldn't work out why we had a cat as a mascot when our nickname is the robins and I couldn't really help with a sensible answer either!

Matty H Posted April 9, 2004 Report Share Posted April 9, 2004 I would rather have a fat Gary Penrice lookalike Pirate as our mascot than a wurzel As for why a cat?......... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
old spot Posted April 9, 2004 Report Share Posted April 9, 2004 I think it was during the Scott Davidson reign, may have been because of the CITY away travel service, but you'll have to ask him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest wishbone Posted April 9, 2004 Report Share Posted April 9, 2004 Yeah, I know that CATS = City Away travel Service, but it still doesn't really explain why we have one as a mascot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Man In Black Posted April 9, 2004 Report Share Posted April 9, 2004 I just always assumed it was a sponsorship thing - you know, like the three little pigs and Coldseal Windows (boy did they get some good publicity with that fight ) I never really thought about it beyond that though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Uncle Ern Posted April 9, 2004 Report Share Posted April 9, 2004 One sure way for establishing the cat's gender. We'll get a vet armed with a castration knife to chase it around the pitch.The speed at which it runs will give us the answer. Christ you can tell there's nowt on telly tonight can't you.
