Old Kwin's Archives 2024/25

Old Kwin isn't the only one who's changing around here! We are excited to announce an entirely new look for this season's Future Archives.

Old Kwin New Look

Instead of the boring old layout used in 2002/3, this season you will be able to enjoy a sophisticated and clever use of new colours and graphics, incorporated into a cool new layout in order to sex-up what will be essentially the same old jokes each week

What are the Future Archives?

Old Kwin holds the coveted position of the club's Future Archivist and, as such, he is responsible for maintaining the club's extensive records of future seasons. These precious documents, which include newspapers, websites, blogs, match programmes and even trivia such as future editions of ComeAllWithin, are all stored in a secure data room situated under the bouncy castle in the Mighty Quins village and known as 'the bunker'.

Here, beneath a concrete-reinforced ceiling penetrated only by the incessant sound of the office staff bouncing above, Old Kwin labours each week- well most weeks - well, from time to time anyway - researching the obscure and arcane future that lies before the club. 

This season Come All Within are delighted to announce that once again we will be featuring extracts from the best of Old Kwin's finds..

Tours of the Archives

As in previous years, tours of the bunker are available to a carefully selected clique. Tours encompass all areas including the punishment cells, and this year include a display of rare documents from the 22nd Century.

In addition, the Bunker Bar is open most afternoons, serving soft drinks at exorbitant prices - significantly cheaper than the East Stand.

So what can we expect this season?

This season Old Kwin will be researching the fascinating events of 2024/25, a season which will see Quins open their Pearce Ring-Fencing Premiership campaign full of optimism, with a young, keen, dynamic and, above all, cheap squad facing an enigmatic Gloucester Wasps team for their first game. Old Kwin's preliminary researches already show that 2024/25 will exhibit uncanny parallels with 2003/4, and the first game is no exception when..... but of that more later...

Membership

Old Kwin's first priority is always his readers, and this season to complement Old Kwin's New Look we are planning a very important development that will radically improve the overall readership experience:

For the complete convenience of our regular fans, we will shortly be adopting a full-security membership system, so that only approved members*, who have registered 48 hours in advance, and provided full personal details (including a retina-scan), will be able to enjoy access to the full archives.
After entering your 11 digit PIN number.

This exciting and popular idea is already winning enthusiastic feedback in our totally independent on-line polls... but more on this later in the season, I am sure.

So, until next week, wishing you all the best
Old Kwin

Remember
Old Kwin's Future Archives are featured exclusively in Come All Within

* note. Membership of the OK community is not open to that small minority of fans from other clubs who always just go and spoil it for everyone (you know who you are). People like this will be blanked.
