Just seen a town fan post this on facebook, apparently it's not finished but the hope to have it finished for the Fulham game. Looks good! That is fucking fantastic. OMG! Get that in the NSL.

We NEED to get that pinned up at the back of the stand behind the goal overlooking all of us, would look mint! Edit: have we thought about putting the existing banners in the centre behind us rather than at the peripheries where they currently are?

Subtle it will be. Should be ok with my other flags, 23 in total, 1m poles and material no bigger than 1 metre x 60cm

The banner would look ace on the back railing, or held up. Not sure if you'll get it in though, you might have to cut it up and tape it up once inside

Sorry if this has been covered but if I get one of these flags off someone where do I return it? Don't wanna be accused of nicking them!

Alright! we're not too sure if we're going to have all the flags behind the goal, (personally I think this looks better, but people have different opinions) or spread out throughout the Middle 3 blocks. It's up to everyone really, we'll just see how it goes! We've got boatloads of them though!

If anybody is taking flags in, and they are worried about getting challenged at the turnstiles by the stewards, then my advice is to take a copy of the flags and banners policy with them.
We've complied with all the rules and restrictions, so it's only fair that KSDL and the safety team do as well.
If anybody needs a PDF copy I can send it to them, or it can be found on the club website

To be fair, the first time I took flags in they only checked it for Racism/offensive stuff etc. And they know my face now and just me through haha

maybe the 'hardcore' of the NSL need to spread themsleves out a bit , with some of the flags and 'manage' their own zones in the FML..that way everything won't be all concentrated in one place...the more flags the better though. Hopefully this will spread to the Kilner too..strategically placed fans with a dozen flags..handed out in their own area and taken back after... As for fundraising, yes a donation via bucket collection would work, subject to Town approving it. It's a starting point, gets things buzzing..will attract more fans... or maybe Deano can do something..instead of t-shirts, flags on every seat..and then you leave them after the game or drop them off in a bin by the exit stairs ? Visually it's great, but more than that, it engages the fans...brings them on board...which is what the ultimate aim is isn't it ?. All we need then is a system which tells fans when to start waving them, all at once, at intervals during the game...coupled with a chant, a roar or a song

All we need then is a system which tells fans when to start waving them, all at once, at intervals during the game...coupled with a chant, a roar or a song With the flags, if they are laid out on seats, they have to laid out in blocks specified by the club. We can't move them into the middle blocks etc unfortunately due to the rules that are laid out. We don't actually put the flags out as well, that's the club who do that. In terms of pockets of fans etc, the NSL can as should inspire fans to sing in other parts of te ground and hopefully fans in the Kilner and main can join in whether that's to sing or start their own thing in that area which would be great. We are looking into a 'Tifo bin' so that all the wavy flags can be put in near the turnstiles but again it's down to what the club allow etc. Generally speaking, they get waves when the atmosphere is at it's loudest.

If you want inspiration switch over to BT Sports and watch the FC Sankt Pauli fans, they're ace (unlike the players)

Let's not try run before we can walk eh.
Keep things simple this season, then hopefully next season we'll have more numbers on board, more money in the pot & fans will be more aware of us so it'll be easier and more 'normal' for us to be able to try bigger TIFO.

There is a sponsorship board and a little rugby scoreboard there!
