Old flags Banners etc.

[Rovers1]

Gentlemen,

just wondering if anyone knows where the old banners, flag etc. are from eg 94 cup final: http://www.bebo.com/PhotoAlbumBig.jsp?PageNbr=1&MemberId=411086670&PhotoAlbumId=6672279603&PhotoId=6686093927

twud be smashing if we could find these,or if anyone knows who owns them, theyre bound to be kept away in attics etc. Would look well with diplays, bring a bit of colour to the Showgies.

[Rovers fan]

i was thinking the exact same myself when i was looking at that photo the other day. I'm sure those flags are out there somewhere!

a friend of mine who hasn't been to a rovers game in years told me his dad has an old banner from the 80's which is lost somewhere in his attic. wasn't too keen on finding it though.

[avvenalaf]

If he hasn't been to a Rovers game in years, how can he still be a friend of yours?. Reassess and discard.

[Rory H]

actually on second thought.....he was in limerick in 2005 singing his heart out so its not too bad. ill ask him about it next time i see him.

Would I know this fellow? I might be able to gain access to their attic if it's who I think it is

[deecay]

[feo123]

Nope, probably feehily's taxi/shop/florist/undertaker crowd, their like my 3rd cousins so it could be theirs, nothing got to do with my family anyways

[Red Army]

If anyone has and Rovers banners or flags that they have and can't be @rsed for what ever reasons:D hanging them out had Rovers games anymore if they contact me of any the other lads on Forza Rovers (http://sligorovers.proboards53.com/) site. We'll hang them up before games add a bit more colour to the Showgrounds

At the left hand corner of the Wrangler signboard is a flag that I did. It read -

SRFC

(rovers crest)

MAUGHERABOY

Aided and also funded by two fellow original Maugheraboy reds. Great day!

[villarover]

Would anyone know where you get text printed on a flag? how much does it cost?
Have a pretty big one been stiched together at the moment for the new season so has any one out there any suggestion for it?

[sligoman]

Ballast Signs in Sligo I think do it.

[Rovers1]

go onto www.forzarovers.tk there'll be plenty of suggestions there ;)

[villarover]
