Santa is a Rover 2025 vs Plymouth

As above, hopefully get more people involved for the last home game of the year.
It's just a bit of fun and would be great to see loads of festive red and white in the stands.
It's our 3rd year doing this so hopefully catches on some more.

A few of us doing meet ups in town beforehand if anyone wants to join us.
More details on that nearer the time.

Just seen some sad news that's quite apt for this thread.

Bill Workman AKA Saturday Santa has died. Rest in peace Bill, as a teenager in the Popside, Bill's humour and vicious baiting of the ref, lino and oppo left back back struck a chord with me.

Evening all.

Bumping this up with it being the 1st of December. 

This year I've teamed up with the guys from The Black Bank, we'll be selling Santa hats around the stadium and possibly in town before the match.

50p from each santa hat sale will be going to the Action for Children charity.
We're also dedicating this to the one and only Bill Workman so we'd like to see as many of you wearing full santa suits or just the hats.

It's just a bit of fun and would be great to see the stands all in red and white.

I wore my Santa hat at the Peterborough game in tribute to ‘Saturday Santa’ I’ll keep wearing it at the games up to Christmas.

A bit of an update on this.

We're organising a Santa march through town before the match. Would be great to see a few there.

12pm Red Lion

12.45 Staff of Life

13.30 Hyde Park WMC

14.15 Walk to stadium.

This appears to be growing arms and legs now with a lot of people getting involved. 
The original Saturday Santa would have loved this.
