Eight years on it shows no sign of stalling. Tam Sellick and other Social Media accounts look like they will never run out of material to chronicle The Banter Years.
Every couple of months, whether it is a player, a result, a manager or a commercial deal it is proclaimed that a corner has been turned. The Banter Years are over with the mighty blue pound about to resume the Natural Order. And their fans lap it up, in spades without ever questioning a word or who is spreading this message. Season Ticket time is especially fruitful.
For two months the Likely Lads of Castore have had their pioneering kit revered. Such was the excitement of a premium brand and a bespoke deal that some fans paid £240 for a hoodie or £90 for a t-shirt. A 20% discount voucher was gold dust.
Tonight should have been an evening of celebration, sitting back with a statement about a new first day of sales world record. To go alongside the signing of Calvin Bassey despite interest from Bayer Leverkusen and West Ham.
Sports Direct have burst the bubble, brought a halt to sales with another Trojan Horse operation unveiled.
In his inimitable style Tam Sellick has edited together some brilliant video clips. It might be eight months, eight weeks or eight days but The Banter Years are in full flow with Scottish football fans loving every move.
