I’m after a new flag, either a St G Cross or St G Cross with the Union Jack ensign (rare?) to take away.

Looking for 30/40ft long by 20ftish wide.

Anybody know a good supplier because it’s been 15 years since I got my present one?

Cheers

That’s massive! What are you planning to do with it?

I tried a couple of places but they refused to put the Cov badge on the flag. Does anyone know a firm that is less fussy about copyright issues?

Where do you plan on sticking it?

I got mine through a site called Astro Flags based down on the South Coast but that was 14 years ago so I have no idea if it is still running.

If it is, they were good.

That's a rather personal question!! Just joking - I'll probably take it to some MLS games and some internationals.

Beware of the size. Mine is 12 by 6 foot and it’s over the size limit but it does get in to most grounds. Any bigger than that and you’re probably struggling. Especially for internationals.

40ft long? that's about a double Decca bus and a half? where is that gonna fit. Most places would struggle to print on something that big?

I had a plan for It and was also gonna see if the club would display at home games...

I may have to reduce the size then, thanks for all the feedback guys

Barmy flags did mine no problem. 12'x6' cost £254

Can add my endorsement for them too. Did a great job. The quality is excellent.

Really? That's bizarre. If you ever see the for Cov and Country at England matches, that was done by Barmy flags.

That flag is awful. It's a toss up between that and the other Coventry "No matter how far" flag for the most embarrassing, cringe-worthy thing I've ever seen.

Come to think of it, I've never seen a Coventry flag that wasn't complete shite.

Cheers. Should be noted that one of those two flags mentioned above has a poppy on it but you think it’s awful. Great stuff. Tosser.

So by your logic I could carry a lump of shit around with me, but as long as I've shoved a poppy in there somewhere everyone is supposed to like it?

It’s about respect for that symbol. There’s also the story behind it. It was partly funded by some of the people on this forum.

I respect the symbol and RBL's Poppy Appeal, I'd hazard a guess I do (and donate) more for this charity than most others on this forum, but for you to say I can't think the flag is rubbish because it has a poppy embroidered on it is nonsense.

It's got a City badge on it, an England badge, a Union Jack and a Poppy on it, don't see what feature it's got that's so cringe worthy or controversial to it?

Secondly if all Cov flags are complete shite, why are you commenting on a thread discussing Coventry flags? I doubt the original poster is put off buying one because RB1992 from Whitley thinks they're awful

Speaking of awful, have the police seized your hard drives yet? Bet your browsing history is fucking shocking.

Where did I say it was controversial?

It's an opinion. Stop throwing your toys out of the pram because someone thinks the flag you've spunked all of your pocket money on is shit. There's an easy solution...









Burn it and buy one that doesn't make me want to puke.

You said it was awful, embarrassing and cringey, and I was asking how.

If you're so sickened by Coventry/England flags why comment on a thread about it? I'm not into Cricket but wouldn't go onto the Cricket part of SBT and call everyone names for being interested in it.

Everyone's happy with their flags here and sharing some advice, so go and find a thread that interests you.

'Toys out of the Pram', 'pocket money'...so you know, I'm not in the demographic of the audience you usually speak to over the Internet!!
