[eoinh]

put in €30 as well.

Lads, a word of warning: I've heard from both Rovers and Bohs fans that those tifo telescopic poles are prone to break easily, seeing as they're made out of graphite or something.

Something like this?

I have heard that as well. The again i suppose you not meant to hit people with them

I don't think 4-5-1 need a junket trip to Italy for telescopic pole training yet though.

FourFiveOne today put in an order to TIFO for three telescopic flag poles and 2 big drums...

Next step is to sort out the material for flags.
And to get that material sewn together. Any advise lads?

Updates here.

Singer's on the corner of the Grand Parade/Washington Street could stitch it together.

Murphy Out Now!!!

singers is a rip off like most places these days. I'd say look in the yellow pages and ring around. Better chance at getting a reasonible quote that way.

We'd be interested in hearing from people who have a sewing machine and would be willing to volunteer their services for free!

We're also still looking for people who want to help with the waving of the flags.

Cheers,
FFO

count me in

[FourFiveOne]

A few people were wondering if they can hand over their pledges to our sellers on Sunday so if you want to contribute to the fund, please do. We are expecting 3 telescopic poles and 2 drums to arrive on our doorstep next week and we'll go about getting the flags made up then.

i cant go the match unfortunately but i still want to give my pledge. i may be in cork next week (i might be at the quiz night). Is that ok?

[Dricky]

Why not try the college of design to see if the student would design and help make the flag??

No problem, I'll wave one of them.

[FourFiveOne]

Two BIG drums and three BIG flag poles arrived in FourFiveOne Towers today.

Eanna and Colm have already agreed to help wave the flags. Anyone else? Ideally another 3/4?

Big thanks to those who contributed to the fund with four different people giving €25 each on Sunday at the UCD game. Fair play. Other people wanting to contribute can email us and take it from there.

Next step is to get the right material for the flags (needs to be very light). Polyester? We reckon we need about 40 feet of Green, 40 feet of red, 40 feet of white. Price in Hickeys is about €200. Anyone who can suss out a better price, it would be very much appreciated.

Thank you,
FFO

No, she can sew all the material together, Conor!!

[fonzi]

id just like to say that when i came home for the Bray match(2nd last game of the season)-the stewards wouldnt leave me into the ground with my flag.
now i never heard anything about this in the past.
do you think that on this evidence that Mr. Lennox will leave in the tele poles and flags?

[FourFiveOne]

Cheers Fonzi. Good point...

We intend approaching the club before the start of the season (should have done it before I know!) but we do not envisage any problems. As long as we outline exactly what the plan is...

ie. waving the flags before kickoff on front off the Shed and by the Corner and then placing them safely down out of the way.

well,

they allowed in the bohs and rovers flags this year. they really add the atmosphere, they should be allowed imo.
