Oggie all tied up

Bob Eales presents Oggie with his tie

The image of the Association has now become widely and frequently recognised at CCFC and CCFPA functions at the Ricoh (and elsewhere) through the medium of our official Association tie. These have been flying off the Association’s shelves being bought by our Associate Members as well as Sky Blue supporters and other club luminaries.  The ties were the suggestion of an Association member Alan Dickie and have been manufactured to our specification by another Former Player Andy Blair. Thanks to both!

Our elegant and striking piece of neckwear has become increasingly visible about the place adorning the necks of CCFC directors and management as well many of the people who keep the Ricoh ticking over and a growing number of  fans/supporters. In fact we have recently sold out and are currently reordering!  We will also soon be able to cater for our female Association members and supporters who wish to match the look with a ladies scarf in a similar design (watch out for news of how to order in due course).

We are gradually working through our membership list of Former Players to present them with this desirable fashion item as they come to visit us at the Ricoh. The latest recipient, in fact a longstanding  ‘resident’ rather than visitor, is Sky Blue ‘Living Legend’, an important part of CCFC’s managerial/training staff  and an authentic F.A.Cup hero Steve Ogrizovic! 

CCFPA Committee member Bob Eales took the opportunity of tieing Oggy down when we finally tracked him down at the recent CCFC Awards Dinner night at the Ricoh on 09 May 2011 (as pictured above).
