Oh, I couldn't really tell what it was!

Was this the one? Or a different one?

Well when the game kicked-off the large homekit "situated in the centre circle" was thrown towards block 15/16 and got sent around the whole ground (by time it got to the telegraph stand it was the wrong way round) But hopefully Chris can get the huge Coventry flag sorted

The Kit was awkward because nobody knew what shape it was and where the top was, but hopefully, with a rectangular flag people wont be retarded and put it upside down.

I loved the home kit being passed around, would be good to get the flag going as well. Chris, I don't go through that tunnel way and I completely forgot about it... not sure how many people pass through the tunnel, might be an idea to collect from outside some of the turnstiles?

Chris. Have you got any sort of online donations sorted?

If you can get this sorted I can make a big banner at the top of the site saying "Click here to donate for the flag" etc.

well, the only way that I can think of is if people can send the money as a gift to paypal, but thats it, do you have any ideas?

I can easily make it have donations at the top with a big bar that fills up as the donations get there but it would need to go to a Paypal address and obviously then there is the trust issue of people sending money to a stranger over the tinterweb

Do you want me to put a link button to sky bues talk on the website, and if you do, do you want to make a button or banner for it?

If you all want to know whats happening with the flag. I'm waiting to hear back from the club regarding negotiations with the company and the flag design.

How long have you been waiting?
I imagine that even if they're keen on this, it isn't really a priority for the club, and is the sort of thing that might slip down a to-do list and get forgotten. So keep badgering them! Give them a call every week or 2 to see how it's progressing. Think it's a great idea.

Awesome work here guys, this is something that definitely needs doing and will help with the atmosphere and surely help the players too.
I tried talking to the club about putting up more emblems around the ground and flags on the roof in the early Ricoh days but no matter what I tried the answer was always the same "it's not our ground and the owners won't want that" so this is brilliant and personally think it's actually quite a good price considering what it'll do for the club and make us fans more visable; banners and flags do work.
I've now moved to Norway so it's much harder for me to do things like this so it's good to see others really getting serious about it Over here when Rosenborg (my new local club) play the whole place is full of flag waving fans, on big games they go mad for them and it really does look great and helps shit loads with the atmosphere

Keep up the good work, and if there is anything I can do to help net based then let me know :wave:

They have actually put up some emblems around the ground though I think it was at the start of last season!
