Waving sponsored scarves is hardly original. What would be interesting would be individuals at Bristol Sport - Bristol City like Adam Baker asking fans what could we do collaboratively.

It's not as though it has some random company on it. Just Bristol City and Bristol Sport. You're complaining that the club gave you a free red and white scarf with Bristol City written on it?

Whereas if it had a sports manufacturer (Adidas) on it and all the profits ended up in Germany, this would somehow be better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That does require collaboration from others. http://www.otib.co.uk/index.php?/topic/169871-red-walls-merged/ Dave Lloyd did appear to want explore the above more thoroughly last season. This season it has not been possible after months of effort to gain permission to display even one flag in the Dolman stand. There have been a seemingly endless myriad of hurdles to negotiate. So again what would be interesting would be individuals around the club - BS adopting a proactive can do, lets make this happen attitude at BCFC.

City fan 1982 Posted November 20, 2015 Report Share Posted November 20, 2015 its ok, and simple, its a start, alls that needed is yourself and a scarf, visually its effective, hopefully people can see its fun and may want to do something else to help with atmosphere, trouble is with fans groups everything is lame and cringey, every song, and idea is poo pooed, as it is not original or hardcore enough !!

ChippenhamRed Posted November 20, 2015 Report Share Posted November 20, 2015 So the accusation is that the scarf waving is unoriginal. The scarf wave is something that pretty much everyone can join in with, is easy to co-ordinate, costs nothing (assuming you have a scarf) and looks visually impressive. Can someone suggest an "original" idea that ticks all these boxes? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vincent Vega Posted November 20, 2015 Report Share Posted November 20, 2015 Let's be honest you are going to have to come up with something pretty special to call it original. ..there's nothing new in football. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hartcliffe red Posted November 20, 2015 Author Report Share Posted November 20, 2015 Yes its a bit manufactured,and yes its unoriginal but does it look better than nothing?....coarse it does.everyone can join in and create some colour so that can only be a good thing surely.some people jus have to have a moan.

Flag-waving by 15,000 is clearly a no no. You were not consulted so we must all boycott this, understood. But please can you tell me what I do need to do on Saturday. I feel like a bimbo in Pan's People with two rival choreographers with opposing views. Meantime I just want to dance. Please let me dance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Palmers Green Red Posted November 20, 2015 Report Share Posted November 20, 2015 Am I allowed to wave my scarf if it is not sponsored? What about my son ... waving his scarf I mean, not me waving him before Mad Cyril pipes up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What would be original and refreshing would be BCFC - BS - Fans working in unison creating a joined up approach to creating a more colourful Ashton Gate. At present while fans are being told you can Citywave other actions are counter productive e.g method statements / risk assessment being required to place flags on walls.
