I wonder if we should check with Balloonboy first, who has often supplied balloons at away games, to see if he has a contact who can supply cheap balloons?

Incidentally, if we do buy the blue ones, I'll get a thousand or so white from my usual supplier. Could someone first check that we'll be playing in Blue & White?:smile:

Maybe we should all take an inflatable toy as well however needs to be co-ordinated so we all take the same - how about a banana ?

I think it has to be done to be honest, looks great when we travel in numbers with thousands of balloons, like at Spurs, and even Orient last season. And ni, i don't just come out for the big games :shootself

How big/heavy will a box of 4000 balloons be Jim?

It's amazing how many you can get into a small plastic bag. Just realised that the price is even better than I first thought, as I normally buy ten inch ones. I would say you could get a couple of thousand in a normal supermarket plastic bag, if they're packed in tight. You won't have a "Giant Flag" problem!!

I think Insider confirmed the other day that we will be playing in blue and white shirts, blue shorts, blue socks...

I'll be with a 28 week pregnant lady so don't want to have to stagger too far with a big weight!
