[Albion] Flags for Sunday?

[Barham's tash]

I get the relative merits of every argument for and against but I just find it so cringeworthy unless we’re celebrating something. Which we’re not this time.

TO be fair we're playing arguably the biggest club in World Football, it IS a big occassion however you dress it up.

It is a slightly big occasion agreed, but you don't let the opposition know that.

 

[Birdie Boy]

Isn't the first home game in our second premier league season a "big occasion " then. Leicester did it last season for their first home, as well as massive fire shooting things

Was that when they were defending Premier League champions?

 

[Is it PotG?]

Need elf and safety to give the Waveit crew lessons in brandishing, some over zealous swinger nearly took my eye out last time.

A year too late. Chelsea were the 2016/17 champions.

I would prefer a loo roll on every seat. There's no better sight in world football than thousands of bog roll streamers cascading down onto the pitch.

Indeed, wins my vote

No last season, our first away game

You've got to be disappointed with that - only a couple of tiddlers

As a staunch feminist, the only things I want to see flapping about on poles at the Amex is WOMEN.#JobsForTheGals.

Ruddy Poles, coming over here, taking our women.......

The kids love them , and with a ever increasing number of young fans attending matches , everything that can be done to make them say to mum and dad can we go again should be done , it's fantastic to see the youngsters all kitted out in their blue and white stripes on a matchday .

There's currently no law which states you must attempt to wave your flag if supplied so relax and enjoy the game .

I hope we don't have flags, it might look good for a global audience but it makes us look tinpot to those on home soil.

Miserable old git J.

Most of them are willy waving on NSC

A friend of a friend said a bloke down the pub told him the club got a good deal on these flags for pride.
The club over ordered as the deal was so good.

I'm looking forward to seeing the Amex full of bright colours on Sunday afternoon.

When are the people who make these decisions going to realise the 'happy just to be here' mentality has no place in football?

Same people that thought a green away kit was a good idea .

To be fair, I’ve already said that I view it as just a league game. I see it as a bit “we’re just glad to be here”.

It is just a league game, but it is also ManUtd's first televised game of the season and will be watched by millions across the globe. Like it or loath it, if we are to sustain ourselves financially in the PL, then we need to step out of our provincial mindset and accept that we have to target a global appeal for better sponsorship, kit, merchandise deals. We need to be selling our advertising to global brands, not just the local Brighton Estate Agents or Job Agencies. We need corporate videos showing ourselves as a club brands want to be associated with and invest in.

It will make us look a bit tinpot to be honest, but I also think we need to swallow down that bit of pride because we either stay the little provincial club in Sussex with a limited stay in the top flight, or we have to build if we are to establish ourselves at the top table for a sustained period. Devil and the deep blue sea.

 

[Tricky Dicky]

Half & half flags ?

[Pretty pink fairy]

....and then we will be rolling ( over ).
Hate flags, hate clappers, small club mentality. The way to greet Man Utd is for every man, jack of us, to make the Amex as hostile as possible, not as friendly as possible.

Have you emailed Paul barber at customer complaints
