colour at the cross

i personally think there is a serious lack of colour out in the X when it comes to flags and stuff. the back wall of the shed could hold a massive 1 for instance. the corner boys are after getting a nice 1{should be on show 4 the rats game}. material is avaliable in hickeys 4 half nothing. if anyone from 4-5-1 reads this they might get something started maybe an add in the ZINE 4 cash or dread the thought a collection in the shed. JUST A THOUGHT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!![COLOR=green]:p :confused: :cool:

Great idea about a flag along the back wall of the Shed, or better still a few flags. Remember when Galatasary played in the Swamp, they only had about 50 supporters but they all had flags and stuff and created a great atmosphere.

BTW What do you mean about the colour=green?

Maybe the sheddies could take example from these Ghanaian supporters.

Some Suggestions

The whole flags thing is a very simple way to start to create more colour. Look at our European counterparts. They create such colour. Benfica always impressed me with scenes like this and this. What we really need is those big wavy flags like the Italians have. Like the Roma Fans in this example. The flag pole is bendy to a certain extent and has to be swung with two hands. There's plenty room on the St Annes end for flag waving.

It's something to think about anyway. Maybe the supporters club could get the ball rolling.

I agree with the flags situation there is plenty of room in St.Annes for flags but the club seems content in allowing opposition fans use that section of OUR ground for their flags.
Good idea about the supporters club but maybe the club could also sell their flags for less maybe for £3 I'd buy one and bring it to the Shed as would my friends.
Was I alone in spotting an Irish flag in the second Benfica picture??

I put that in there on purpose.
I looked at the picture and thought, why is there a tri-colour in the middle of the Benfica?
Big wavy flags are mad.
The flags that are on sale in the club shop are like GAA flags with ponsy sticks. We need huge big bendy sticks that nearly topple you over when you wave them.

IMO Flags look better under floodlights!

cheers for clearing up the green thing BARRYS TEA. i dont really have a clue how to use the fcuking computer.

About this time last year a similar idea was founded at "red-boys" (remember that place?) where we were all chipping in to pay for a giant banner to hang from the back of the shed. I think "Face in the crowd" was organizing it. I think some people even handed over money. What happened to that idea?

I was looking around the server room and I found a piece of plactic "Super High Impact" ducting pipe, with a diameter of 20mm and a thickness of 1.8mm This could be ideal as a pole for the proposed "bendy flags". It's surely available in electrical/DIY stores?

I think the club should get the ball rolling by giving the supporters club money for a flag anyone agree

There was sixty quid collected for a banner and it is still there, if anyone wants it. Lads i was all up for it at the time but nothing came off it, i have less time now so i wont be much help in getting a flag sorted out, but the money is there, if anyone wants to put together with their own money.

All chipped in, a flag the size of the shed would not the that hard together. If anyone is interested just PM. By the way, The money is buring a hole in my pocket. Who is on the up take ???

A flag the size of the shed should not be that hard to get together.

Neil who posts over on JW's MB has a couple of great Bohs Banners. He got them done in Dublin on Camden St I think. AFAIK they even provided the material. It did cost a few hundred quid but they're well worth it. Look at the flag in the middle here for an example. Neil would have no problem giving advice on flags and banners.

It would be well worth the money.

Don't forget to put some green in the flags :)

Are you refering to the page with the Bohs flags?
It is here http://www.geocities.com/bohemianfc/hbk13.jpg

yea thats the one Peadar
methinks in my drunken state though that hyperlinks arent working off foot.ie for some reason

Yeah, if there's a flag being done, I'll put some money up and I'll check with the Supporters Club to see how things are there- wouldn't hold my breath for a donation from th club though.

It is a good idea to have a big mad flag or whatever. But i do feel that if this were to be done, then smoking would have to be banned altogether from the Shed in ordeer to prevent a fire and injuries.

Thing is, that would mean the stewards would have to take their fingers out of their arses and do something, wouldn't it???

good one! :D :D :D Like that's really gonna happen!!!!!
Seriously though, the Shed is pretty poor on the banner/flag front we should do something about it.

Why not just come to the next Supporters club meeting and propose it to Finnbar and Stephen about the flag.I'll mention it if you like
