I'm not speaking on behalf of FourFiveOne but weren't the flags at the side of the shed?
I'm certain I could hear the drums too and if I could hear them then surely everyone else could hear them

Didn't see the flags on Sunday and as far as I know they weren't used.

The drums were used alright

My mum wanted to know what the star was for so they were certainly around somewhere.

TIFO flags were there alright, but nobody picked them and waved them!

Newish to this forum, so I don't know what TIFO stands for, but I assume it means those massive flags the club got two (three?) years ago. They were waved about 45 minutes before the game, beside the shed. After that, I reckoned nobody could take their eyes off the field of play, so the flags lay unemployed.

If you could only bring one of two things this weekend, bring your glasses you can leave your passport behind. It's not as important

Maybe I should have done that but as it was they were delighted to have me there so once they'd taken my picture, finger printed me, taken a retinal scan, made me sign 23 forms and paid �2,500 I was off on my merry way.

its not the club that owns them at all, FourFiveOne bought them and they were paid for by contributions from the fans.

The drums were there alright in the shed as usual.

Well, does anyone know?
It was the one thing missing from the day I thought.
They are absolutely fantastic and it was a real pity they were not on show .....particularly as there were so many people at The Cross for the first time in years on Sunday who have never seen them.

Come to think of it there was only one banner hanging in the Shed also.......!!!
