Cascadia Saint Posted 13 May, 2015 Share Posted 13 May, 2015 The sign of a mature and confident organisation is one that can laugh at itself. Same as people really. Like it. Exactly! I'm happy they're all comfortable enough to take the Player Integrated Stripes Strategy out of themselves... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

S-Clarke Posted 13 May, 2015 Share Posted 13 May, 2015 That was funny as ****, marketing genius, it's gotta make soccer am on saturday Probably won't be on Soccer AM. I reckon it may get an airing on fletch and sav though, given that they're covering our game from 10am and their producer is Saints fan chris nutbeam (who used to produce soccer am for what it's worth).

andoru Posted 14 May, 2015 Share Posted 14 May, 2015 Loved it. Not too many clubs would make a video so blatantly insulting their rivals ("What's this pompey player doing on my board?!") or with beeped-out swearing (P.I.S.S. Haha!).

cobraBLACK Posted 14 May, 2015 Share Posted 14 May, 2015 Did anyone else notice the poor pixelation attempt on his name badge during the 'high press' explanation scene? Nice. "If you're not from Southampton you probably don't understand but, if you're not from Southampton, who cares?" I wanna see those stripes back on Fonte's Bentley.

Ohio Saint Posted 14 May, 2015 Share Posted 14 May, 2015 (edited) Ohio young laddy .. your mission (if you want it or not!!) is to get The Whole of The USA "High Pressing" I really hope it catches on and becomes a Southampton Cult I'm ahead of you. That was my first thought as soon as I saw the video. I'm going to work soon, and teaching the high press to anyone warped enough to hold a conversation with me. However, to make it more appealing to the natives, I was thinking of ending it with a thumb to the nose and finger wiggling thing to round it off as an FU to the skates. .......And if the regular high press became a cult thing in Southampton? That would be awesome!!! Edit: It would also be great to see the players using the high press during goal celebrations, assuming we ever get another goal this seaon.

Maybe they could do it each time we win a throw in or corner, and build on from there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

S-Clarke Posted 14 May, 2015 Share Posted 14 May, 2015 It got a mention on the Colin Murray show today, he described it in glowing terms. A stunningly good bit of PR. Yeah, this is top marketing to be fair. Not just aiming at your own customers, but reaching out and getting interest from others who would otherwise not batter an eyelid. I remember last year it was mentioned that we'd appointed the former Apple Marketing guru - wonder if they're the brains behind this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cascadia Saint Posted 14 May, 2015 Share Posted 14 May, 2015 seems that others seem to find it amusing. They noticed a couple of things I missed - like the sound of the ball hitting the crossbar when he kicks it away at the end! Genius attention to detail!
