The big flag. (REM - Flag)

[Danny 4]

What has happened to the REM Flag that used to make its way around the Withdean and also came with us to the Cardiff play-off final in 2004?

 

[Smithy]

Michael Stipe took it to put it on his bedroom wall.

 

[Taybha]

after being left out in the elements for a year it was no use to man or beast , the last i heard Guy Butters had made a smart/casual shirt made out of it ,plunging neckline obviously

 

[Gazwag]

It was pinched by shiney happy people, it was a bad day that day

 

[Beach Hut]

What a fecking stupid question

 

[wehatepalace]

[Barrel of Fun]

We need an automated response for this question. What I mean is, automatic for the people.

This

Should stretch to 6 pages though

 

[Martinf]

I've got a photo of me with REM. That's me in the corner.

 

[Seagull on the wing]

Heard that the builders threw it out....sue em!

 

[Lush]

No-one would drive it home.

 

[Lord Bamber]

Its around probably near the great beyond.

 

[Everest]

No-one would drive it home.

That's jolly nice of him, and he wasn't even at the club at the time.

 

[brakespear]

It's at the back of the Stand.

 

[e77]

A big, indeed Monster, question.

I've got a photo of me with REM. That's me in the corner.

ah that was you, i must have been just across from you.... that was me in the spotlight.

 

[El Presidente]

The REM flag was the real deal, offer me solutions, offer me alternatives and I decline.

On a separate note, I recently enquired about the price of a 19.5m x 9.75m (64 x 32 feet) flag and was quoted an eye watering £2,750 + VAT. This compares to the original REM flag which cost £2,000.

We have been quoted £2,000 + VAT for 16.5m x 8m (54 x 27 feet).

Any thoughts? I am happy to shop around for other quotes, but if the consensus is 'Meh' about whether we could raise the funds that I won't bother.

 

[Gazwag]

I'm sure that the club would be able to find some where to store the flag at the ground, the problem would be (as it is always) moving the flag from storage before the game and back again at the end.

That being said, each stand could take it in turns - East one game, North the next and WSU the third - even better once the four corners are in, it could go around the whole ground (well SE round to SW).
