Sammy falls for April Fool

Sunday, 1st Apr 2012

Scotland's number one club mascot. reacted passionately when he was told he was going to be transferred!

Sammys Easter Party

Sammy's Gang, the younger section of the Young Pars supporters club, received shocking news at their Easter Party on Sunday.  They were stunned to silence when the regular feature - Sammy's Story was read out.

"Dear Sammy", it read:-
"The Board of Dunfermline Athletic Football Club have received a very substantial offer from another SPL Club for the services of Scotland's number one club mascot.  We feel that we must accept this fantastic offer and you will be transferred as soon as we receive the fee"

The story questioned which club this might have been from:-

Which club are you going to?

St Mirren.........NO! I am not a panda! said Sammy
Aberdeen........NO! I am not a bull! said Sammy
Hearts............NO! I am not a tiger! said Sammy
Celtic..............NO! I am not a hound! said Sammy
Kilmarnock.....NO! I am not a squirrel! said Sammy

Wait a minute, Sammy, you ARE a bear!  Can you be going to Ibrox to join Broxi Bear?  NO, they can`t afford you!

Sammy is so angry!  How could they even think of getting rid of him!
Oh!  Now wait a minute, Sammy. Here`s another letter for you!

What does it say? Let's have a look. It says?.. APRIL FOOL!!!!!

April Fool 2012
April Fool!

His gang were initially very sad about this, as was Sammy, until they all found out it was an April Fool and Sammy will not be leaving us after all.  What a relief!

About thirty Sammy's Gang members came along to the Kingdom Suite at East End Park on Sunday to enjoy Sammy's Easter party. Sammy missed out on some of the fun and magic from Tricky Ricky at the start of the party, but the children certainly enjoyed themselves as Tricky Ricky and Bingo the Dog got up to all sorts of nonsense.

When Sammy did arrive Tricky Ricky had him spinning plates and, surprisingly, Sammy was quite a dab hand at it, impressing us all with his skills! The children enjoyed some party food before listening to a Sammy story.
