Stand or Fall - the north stand banner - please vote

[Silverhatch]

No.1 - Concise, straightforward and powerful.

 

[T soprano]

This is more exciting than the eurovision song contest number 4 for me , hope all the other banners can still be accommodated around the north stand more colour the better

 

[Seagulls Downunder]

Sadly it became neglected, little interest was shown in organising it, and it ended up being left outside at Withdean for some time. There were contractors working on site, we assume it got in their way and they skipped it. The club didn't give us anywhere particularly convenient to store it and it was like drawing teeth getting enough people to help with it. Mil Stad was a case in point, we ended up collaring some kids to help us march it to the coaches after the original 'helpers' disappeared after the game. If there is to be a flag at the Amex, then it has to be the club who organise it, the ball boys that distribute it to the stand pre-match and also then to take it away, fold it and and store it.

Thanks Phil, sounds like a pretty sad state of affairs after all the work that went in to it.

Surprised 4 is doing quite so well, it's too 'busy' for such a small sized banner. I voted for 1 personally.

 

[We're the Stripes]

Number 2 is the best.

Clearly in the minority, mind! Simple = better. Although I can understand the point of wanting some context with the added line.

 

[Safeway]

Number 3 for me. The seagulls make it look a little, well, gay.

 

[GreersElbow]

Any of them, all are pretty smarty looking and nothing too liary. Love it.

 

[the right footed denilson]

No seagulls!

 

[Dr. Notthenineo'clocknews]

Stand or Fall? bit of joke at the moment regarding those who cant wait to suck up to Chelsea, I'll stand thanks

 

[countryman]

1 or 2 for me. I went for 2 though.

 

[queens park pete]

Number 4 for me

 

[16bha]

Number 4 for me, but with Seagull on one side and the Sussex Martlets on the other?

Everyone needs to know the words to Sussex by the sea - perhaps words on the screens?

 

[sir albion]

No 4 defo

 

[Triggaaar]

I agree with this observation about the word "FAIL" jumping into one's head... it is exacerbated by the short white stripes above and below the first "L"

Agreed, whichever one is chosen I think the short stripes should just be moved along so that a white mark isn't just above the first L. Easy fix.

"FOR SUSSEX BY THE SEA" is vital

Disagree. When you first see the banner it puts it straight into context, but this is something we'll have for years, so everyone at the ground will soon know what's it's about.

I'm undecided.

 

[Horsham Gull]

Number 4 would be my choice

 

[LadySeagull]

This - tweak it please so it does not look like FAIL from a distance!

 

[Triggaaar]

I like 4, and it's the easy choice, but I think 2 will stand the test of time better. I don't think we need the extra line.

Doesn't matter though, all great, nice work.

 

[Winker]

It doesn't need seagulls, as others have said - number 4 is too busy and the birds make it look boss-eyed. 1 or 3.

 

[jbyrne90]

Number 3 for me
