FourFiveOne DISPLAY OF COLOUR
Cork City v Malmo
Turners Cross
Saturday 19th June 2004
Kick Off: 7pm
On Saturday the 19th June Cork City will host Swedish side Malmo in the first leg of the Intertoto Cup 1st round match. To mark the occasion we are planning on putting on a continental style Display of Colour in The Shed to welcome the teams onto the pitch.
A ****** Load of FLAGS
We have ordered 1000 small flags in the club colours of green, white and red. These flags will be handed out, free of charge, to fans entering The Shed before the match. Those nearest the Derrynane stand will be given green flags, people in the middle of the Shed will be given white flags and red flags will be given to those standing nearest the entrance stiles side of the Shed.
It is hoped to have some sort of tape running from the rear of the Shed to the front of the Shed, which will indicate each section. When the teams enter the pitch everyone will wave their flags to create the display. This will have a great visual effect and along with the big flags, drums and singing will really encourage the team to perform to the levels that we all know they are capable off.
To make this work:
* We ask that you get into the ground in plenty of time so as we can give you your flag and you have time to take up position.
* We want to have it clearly green, white and red so are asking that for the display that you stick to the area of the colour flag you are given.
* When the teams enter the pitch - wave your flag!
Nice one,
FourFiveOne
Anyone interested in helping out (WE REALLY NEED AS MANY AS POSSIBLE INVOLVED TO MAKE IT WORK) please give one of the lads a shout, see ye at the game tomorrow night, or send us an email.

Great idea lads, fair play to ye.
Excellent idea. Will also be great for the kids during the match & for future matches.We have ordered 1000 small flags in the club colours of green, white and red.
Yeah, obviously kids and so on will want to hold on to them and that's fair enough. However, a lot of people will probably throw them away when they get home so it might be an idea for people to hand them back afterwards if they don't want them.... even if we got a few hundered back they could be used for a future display.Originally Posted by pete
Lads, we've got to make this work. Everyone needs to help out. It will look fantastic if done properly.
Champions!
Maybe get one of those industrial drums (usually blue) or a rubbish bin that people could drop them into on way out. Maybe the "matchday mag" would put a few lines in...Originally Posted by Colm

IMO they only work for seated sections & usually need bigger sheet than A4. I also think they starting to look lame for the internationals.Originally Posted by xtreme rebel
maybe people should come colour coded (shirts i mean here) to make it satand out even more. the last thing you want is all theese dull greys and black taking away from the colours of the flags!
Wat about giving a few flags to the Derrynane Rd stand dwellers?

the display is for the shed end..I'd say spreading out the flags will only take away from the wanted effect...to do it for the rest of the ground a few hefty contributions to 451 would be needed I'd say...
everyone should come with colours that day....flags, scarves, jerseys, hats whatever people can get their hands on...real make the ground a sea of green white and red......
fantastic idea,for the last few matches myself and my mate have tried to introduce our own little bit of flair with inflatable and bananas!i was in pound city today and the have hammers and hands etc. well get some as they are only €2 a pop it'd great for others to get in on the act.id like to say right also that richie's italy flag is fúckin class!!
j'accuse!
lads am goin up to the malmo game supportin fellow munster team city . have a 40/20 feet tri colour . should i bring it to the game . its huge. where in the ground could i put it.
Cheers for your support.
I'd say there'll be nowhere to put your flag on display as I reckon there won't be too many free seats that night and with the Big Flags etc it'll hardly get space.
What you could do if you and any of your mates come up is try wear something green, white, or red, ie. Ireland jersey or something to add to the display of colour
u could put the flag at the far end next to the seats on the ground
Cork City F.C. the envy of the EL
I'd say you'll always find a wall to hang it off either side of the Derrynane side although may not be in clearest view.Originally Posted by balls
chaps will the "beautiful" be closed ya?us chanters revert to the st.annes?

He got shouted down and abused heavily, so sense prevailed. Some people are no fun at all. Fair play to all the lads involved-it's gonna be special...

The SFAI are the governing body for grassroots football in Ireland, not the FAI. Its success or the lack of is all down to them.
