Ideas for flags and banners to DANGLE around The AMEX.

i think you're counting your chickens before they have hatched.

give the albion the choice between a fan funded banner or an evans halshaw advert and you know who they'll choose.

Ok, this ones a bit more complicated, but how about something along the lines of whats outside Old Trafford where they have a panoramic of the stadium developing over time. Might be difficult for us given the nature of the different grounds we've played at, and the fact they're not on the same site, but would it be possible/good to have the Goldstone turning into the Amex, perhaps via Withdean and Priestfield a la the picture below? Certainly more meaningful than the United version anyway

I would LOVE the Amex to be flag crazy. Maybe we could ask to use the corners for flags until they are filled in or even hang them from the top of the east (the bit that is empty and waiting to be filled in with more seats). Would be a shame if the whole ground becomes void of flags due to advertising. I notice that chelsea have a section with no advertising between top and bottom tier behind the goal specifically for flags to be adorned.

If that was going to be the case, you'd hope the WSU was going to be the one.

It's the one where, when we're on telly, will be seen the least.

What he said!!!

Obsolutely this!!!

I think I may go for one of these two....

No, it would be absolutely fab to just have one of the Goldstone. Perhaps one of the north stand, with floodlights, on the back of the north stand next to the club shop. f*** withdean and especially f*** the pissfield.

As we are going to have some very naughty firms down next year, why don't we really shit them up eh

The line is "You'll never make the station"

which ios quite ironic as we are building a nice connecting walkway / bridge to/fromthe station

How about a flag version of the mosaic?

Oi, that was my idea! Got the thumbs up from the boys in Stoke this weekend!

 

[eastlondonseagull]

I actually reckon the mosaic image, or the mosaic itself one it's done, would look amazing as a giant flag without any words. Tomysupercup can get it printed for next to nothing

 

[Superphil]

Surely this is more correct

I fear this man speaks the truth. Everyone getting carried away; the club will never allow banners and flags into the ground without fire certs, no poles etc etc. Has anyone asked? I have, and I never even got a reply. The club simply isn't interested in atmosphere-makers. You're all trouble makers and potential hooligans in steward's eyes I'm afraid.

I think you've gone a bit too far but I think you need to establish from the club what the rules will be, where you can hang them etc

When I asked Mr Hebbard where I could put my flag he said I could stick it where the sun don't shine.

Looking at the stadium axis and based on a 3pm kick off, I assume this means the back of the West Stand...?

 

[portlock seagull]

How can u say that when all the evidence suggests otherwise? I want flags at the Amex but the club will make it so hard to do it puts people off? These cost hundreds to make so why bother if you can't get past the Stasi on the door or wave it like anfield because no poles beyond the sticks that club merchandise (& won't support flags of this size) has are allowed? As I've said, I've asked the club a long time ago and the response was deafening silent. Thus threads not the first time this has been discussed. Just more people with graphic skills are on it! But no point wetting peoples appetite if big flags aren't allowed due to h&s
