Quote:WE HAVE YOUR SHEEP
HMM, CAN I SMELL MINT SAUCE?
Myfanwy is now our hostage and will be kept safe, even though the geneva convention does not cover livestock.
We are demanding a ransom for our hostage to be equally distributed between the town fans who drove ALL THE WAY to flippin' carlisle only to be told the match was off.
CHECK THE WEATHER FORECASTS!!!!!!!!!!
DON'T LIE TO US THAT THERE'S A CHANCE THE GAME COULD BE ON!!!!
Copy and paste this if you don't think we are serious...

Myfanwy could be anywhere in the world by now so don't even think of tracking her down! (Dummy model has been used in photos so FBI cannot track her down) Mwa ha ha ha ha.
OUR NEW DEMANDS AS OF 17TH JANUARY 2006 AT 11.10PM
By royal decree of King Wurzel of Salopshire and the order of the Third Nipple we hereby make the following demands for the safe return of Myfanwy
1) Carlisle Football Club must get a computer with INTERNET ACCESS that can look up WEATHER FORECASTS. It is not rocket science!
2) Brian Wake is to be neutered immediately to prevent further generations of footballer heaping woe on Shrewsbury Town football Club
3) Show us your money - ah yes, should the ransom reach a level acceptable for the order of the third nipple we will split the received cash 50/50 between the Supporter's Trusts of Shrewsbury Town Football Club and Carlisle Football Club
4) This is on the understanding the CUFC Supporters Trust will use part of the money to buy a BAROMETER so that CUFC can CHECK THE WEATHER FORECAST WHEN THE WEATHER IS GOING TO BE BAD TO STOP OTHER FANS WASTING HOURS OF THEIR TIME BECAUSE CUFC CAN'T MAKE A DECISION.
