Overconfidence II

Posted in Football on June 11, 2006 by crookedshore

Mars have apparently renamed their iconic bars Da_1_bjpgBelieve during the World Cup. The purpose I guess is to galvanise home support for the lads. As you can imagine, the Scots haven’t taken too kindly to it. Edinburgh-based design company have cashed in on a tee-shirt, the first batch of which have already sold out, which says ‘Believe? Ma arse!’

It is reported that sales of Mars have plunged catastrophically north of the border but shop keepers are unable to get batches without the new name.
