BigAl&Toby Posted March 31, 2019 Report Share Posted March 31, 2019 So the boy has ground me down. He wants a banner. We sit behind the goal in the front row so we’ll have a nice spot to put it.... So: Where do we get one? What shall we have on it? Don’t reply with Johnson Out! Promotion through Top Six and Play Offs?

Selred Posted March 31, 2019 Report Share Posted March 31, 2019 Few watch outs, it has to be have certain safety certificates I believe, and also it can’t go in front of advertising. I’m sure someone from Section 82 can help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

City fan 1982 Posted March 31, 2019 Report Share Posted March 31, 2019 Although section82 put a few flags out , seems there’s not much room to put many more in south stand. A few more around the ground would look good. I’m sure over the years I’ve seen a fair few city flags , I remember a red and yellow chequered effort with original robin on. I haven’t had a flag since some bugger nicked at Cambridge many years ago ;( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bristol Oil Services Posted March 31, 2019 Report Share Posted March 31, 2019 I remember painting "Bristol City FC" on a Union flag I got (one of two) off a lad known as "Wilf" from Withywood, in the garage of me old school pal somewhere in Whitchurch, the night before York away in March '84. Big flag, it was. So big white letters painted in white across the red horizontal. When we peeled it off the garage floor, there it was on his old man's garage floor, as well as the flag. School boy error (we weren't school boys by then, either). We took it on that football special train, got to the front and draped it over the wall, and watched as we earned a creditable 1:1 draw. I don't remember taking it to another (City) game, strangely (it did go to Euro '88 though). Don't remember painting up any more flags in the garage in Whitchurch, either. I have more City flag/banner tales to beguile you all with, if anyone would like.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m sure someone from Section 82 can help. It needs to be biodegradable, mustn't use a font that short sighted people will find difficult to read, must be securely fastened to avoid lethal eye injuries, should the wind pick up. Oh, and it mustn't discriminate between either team as that's potentially racist against northerners etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes there’s plenty of websites out there. Barmyflags being one that’s already been mentioned. However, a few of my mates have recently purchased from badges4casuals. If you look at their website and click on flags you’ll see some examples of their work, including 3 recently purchased City flags. The huge banjo robins one, the Deutschland Reds one and the Terrace Culture Adidas one. Good flags and good price. You know what I wanna see more of though. We’ve got loads of St. George’s already and I’d love to see more fans going for the all red flags instead. There was a great new one at Sheffield yesterday “the corns half cut and so be we”. Looks mint. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will match the home and away shirts from that era that will soon adorn the shrine in his bedroom.
