Still missing the point on the Honesty flags thing?

Great read by the way

Ta v.much.

. Re: honesty flags. I think its to trust the fans to give em back when they're leaving so that they're still there to use next week.
(instead of giving em away for free). Interesting way of improving atmosphere. An alternative to giving away 1000s of flags which obviously they couldn't afford to do every week.

 

[Grassman]

Entertaining read as ever. Alas, I was at a wedding last night so couldn't take my seat in WSU (next to Chailyjem's dad).

Okay I see. Thanks

 

[Albion in the north]

Good read. Thanks.

17: We still look susceptible to handing the opposition their best opportunities.

Deserved the win but could have finished up with a different ending.

Ha! True but Freedman made that point in #4.

Great to see these back, excellent as always.

Fair enough

Thanks , Freedman's opinion is always different to everyone else's watching the game

Love reading these. Sort through all the twitter guff so I don't have to - thank you! Could do with a few more of the cynical, humorous tweets though (from the likes of TSLR, last night questioning BZ's taste in headwear for example) as well as the actual football stuff!

 

[Icy Gull]

Good read, as always

 

[BensGrandad]

No mention of how obvious it is that we desperately need a wide man on the right who can consistently get past the full back and get a cross in.

Did we learn that yesterday ? You've been saying it for ages

 

[BensGrandad]

Didnt exactly learn it but reiterated and emphasised the need.

There's this quote in point 14

"For the Albion, things are looking far better at the moment than this time last season. The main bulk of transfer business is done, with just a winger and another centre back required to complete their squad." which i found via

The honesty flags thing is a fantastic idea and is a nice little touch to make the Amex more colourful - top marks to the club/ SWC people who I think helped this happen. One question, why does it say 'sign' the flag on the box? Is there a signing out book for flags?!

I don't know much about it. Agreed. Top marks to SWC lot / club for getting this off the ground. Anyone on here have more details ?
