[NSC] A giant flag for the North (and other stands)

[Behind Enemy Lines]

I’d put a few quid in for another giant flag if design and wording was agreeable. Perhaps the club could match what the fans raised?

The money for this one was raised over one weekend, so its easily done. I would love to see us design and crowdfund some banners/flags similar to the Stand or Fall one which could be placed on the north stand back wall. A patchwork of flags would look much better than the blank grey space. Happy to use photoshop to knock up some designs if people wanted to do something like this.

 

[Tesco in Disguise]

Can we see the designs here, please? (I don't just mean the wording)

When it came out we thought, "theyre obviously doing a practice run so everyone knows what to do as its the first time" then it went back across the North and got folded away before the players came out and the stadium was 1/3 full.
We just looked at each other and pi$$ed ourselves laughing. The execution was so bad I thought Liz Truss had organised it

I don't want to be uncharitable because they actually got off their @rses and did something, but yes the timing was wrong. Hopefully they get it right next time...

Shoot the Palace scum, with a picture of a seagull with a 12 bore blowing an eagles head off.

Any chance the flag can be lent to the East stand? Can it be rolled out from the back down to the front as the teams come out? I'm in the back row of the Upper and there is room behind the top row to lay it down to get it started.

Thought the flag looked great, just a shame it had to be brought out early to avoid the minutes silence. Also seems like loads of people got to the stadium just in time for kick off because of the travel chaos, and so missed it, which wouldnt always be the norm. Anyway, the flag itself still looked decent.

Is the minutes applause for their trainer the reason it went away early? Not some H&S BS? No idea, just asking (I missed it due to traffic).

 

[East Staffs Gull]

How about a flag for Enoch?

Obviously, yes. Would have been tactless in the extreme for The Italian Job flag to have been unfurled any later on. Unfortunate timing for the flagmakers.

Agree with others that a giant flag covering whole sections of the NS stand needs to be much bigger and should be blue and white.

More flags on the back wall of NS and elsewhere around the ground is a good idea. "Patchwork" is the right approach - gives ownership of the space to the fans and is less corporate.

We could learn a few things from the Geordies here. Wor Flags was created to co-ordinate and create a better atomosphere at St James with fLags and banners at the heart of the campaign. For those who haven't seen St James pre-match recently its mind blowing. Lots of smaller flags with centre piece banners often with a particular message

Does Barber allow flags on poles?

[MENTION=20122]Whitley Bayster[/MENTION] is right you know.

Just that one section with that weird looking gonk Staveley in it is way bigger than our De Zerbi one.

The flags on the back wall all have to be put up and taken down each game. The club have helpfully put up a wire to make it a bit easier but its still a job. I'm assuming the reason they need to be taken down each game is because they cover some windows at the back of the North Stand as the ones in the South West corner are up all the time.

Could they not be incorporated into the patchwork so they could sit there permanently?

Around the windows?

Maybe it could visit all three home stands in turn, a bit like a Mexican Wave?

What happened to the flag?
I thought when we played Spurs the flag came out very early and then put away because of the tribute to the Spurs coach that passed away.
Honestly thought the flag would be passed along the North Stand before the match last night.

Whatever DID happen to the RDZ flag? Been MIA for a few games now. What GIVES?

With ‘Rivers of Blood’ on it? Not sure that would pass the censors but you never know.
