A name isn't important. Being able to market the cause to others is, hence the need for some kind of label. It's very basic really.

It's very basic really. get some flyers printed about thr fm lower and distribute them around the schools and pubs,basic and cheap advertising,will only cost a few quid in printing cartridges,folk would give up time if there bothered about the home end.its ok doing it on here or twitter or facebook but that only reaches a small percentage,about 80% of fans prob have never heard of datm....naming yourselves could alienate folk from going in...

That's a fair point.... We aren't real at the point where we can put out our 'manifesto' so to speak, but I hear that.
We are trying to build something here for the future generations, some of us are middle aged and older, but we are trying to ensure the htafc legacy is continued.
That means targeting the younger fans is paramount, most of them are social media connected, hence our priority lays there.
The younger fans are more likely to be swayed by a colourful home end with flags and banners and confetti than not I would say.
I wish people would understand out true intentions, we aren't 'ultras'. We are working for what we believe is beneficial to the future of the club.
If it takes a handful of old uns to put the wheels in motion than that is what we shall do.

If we can get the club to back this and post something via official channels then it should reach 80%+ of the fanbase...

you don't have to name it, just be in it. a Home end is a must, and we must surely all be behind it?

Nothing would make me happier than seeing you in the FML moaner, because we would know we had succeeded.
You coming in for a game or two?
No malice here.

Finally getting chance to have a look through all this. I don't think we really need to worry about a name yet. Give it a month or two into the season then one of us will no doubt say something randomly after a few pints while having a chat, and the others will think, you know what that's a great idea. The worst thing I personally think we can do is 'force' a name for ourselves, I think it needs to come naturally and what better way than after a few pints
