BIG FLAG FUND

[fonzi]

i was bringing my flag along to matches now and then and had no hastle off anyone.

but since returning for the last 2 games of the season i was not permitted into the grounds with my stick attached to the flag.

However saying that one or two of the lads did actually have flags in the shed and i saw one of them leaving his flag inside the ground after the match.
(the flag with loads sewn together)

however if flags(in general) are banned(if so at all) then no word has come from the club concerning this.
i dont see it printed in the official match day programs.
does any one know whats going on?

i asked the teward in question why i wasnt allowed to bring the stick in and he told me that it was'' cork city have banned them''
i proceeded up to the turnstilles

a couple of minutes later with just the flag and asked one of the fellas on the gate what the story was and he didnt hear anything about it.

if flags are banned then why are cork city selling flags (pride of leeside) at all?
wouldnt it be compleatly stupid to be selling something thats actually not alowed into the grounds?

That was probably just a steward acting the l@nger, nothing new there.

Donations to the fund are most welcome. The drums and poles have arrived but we reckon the material and sewing will cost another €250.

A couple of the lads will be at the Supporters Club Table Quiz tonight in PJ Turners. Alternatively you could post doantions to:

FourFiveOne
PO Box 81
Eglinton Street
Cork City

The more money that comes in the quicker we can get the job done. You won't recognise the place come first game of the new season!

Hopefully not, anyway. It'll be bad enough not being able to stand in the Shed, without the same crap atmosphere as last season prevailing as well.

Can't remember if i actually pledged cash earlier in this thread but i'll put in whatever the going rate turns out to be... €30?

[James]

i'll throw a few quid in also
and if ye still need someone i'll wave one around also

[Casegrande]

As promised... €30 on the way... see ye at the U-21 final.

[A face]

Chalk me down there aswell !!

[NorthoftheLee]

My €30 is in the post. really it is!!

[patsh]

Well you got my €s at the UCD game.

[FourFiveOne]

Many thanks to all who have contributed so far. We have now recieved €150 towards the BIG FLAGS.

We're working on different designs at the moment. We'll try and put some options up on our website so that fans can vote for the best three.

Once we decide on the designs we can go ahead and buy the material. Hopefully by the end of next week.

Also, we might try out the two BIG DRUMS at the u-21 final on Friday night! Bring your ear muffs!

Cheers,
FourFiveOne

Why not open an account where people can lodge in money at A.I.B. / Bank of Barbados etc.

Perhaps a 50 cent increase temporarily on the fanzine could speed it up.

Why not have fellas outside the ground with buckets collecting.
The same fellas could also dress up as scouts and do the bags in Dunnes and Tescos for more cash!!

Great suggestions

Thing is they all need people to get involved and help out. More work is fine if people volenteer to pitch in every week. that is the only way things will get done

** Pablo ... you are watching too much telly, it is a flag for the fan to wave at the games, Not a Columbian arms deal. **
