Flag Situation

Thanks to tufctillidie, the old surfer that appeared for a few games is back. He has kindly donated it to the Yellow Army and it will be used at matchdays from now on, likely to be used in one of the central blocks.

Fans have also helped get a variety of different flags since the start of last season, where the sight of a flag was rare at the moor. We've now got quite a few at Plainmoor and we're working with the club to process new ideas. Credit to Mr Barlow, he's put in a lot of effort with new flags and the new drum and deserves some praise.

The one thing we do miss is hand-held flags. I know TUFC are quite tight on 'potential weapons' but there have been occasions where they've allowed us in with flags on sticks. In my opinion, this presence would really make the popside look good. If you have a flag of any sort, we urge you to bring it and help improve the atmosphere at United.

Keep the ideas coming, and let's make Burton a great display with loads of tifo, and of course, loads of noise!

I've just had a thought. How about using old yacht sails as flags? Am sure you can paint on them and living where we do, there should be a lot around. Does anyone go sailing that could donate any?

Looks great! Hope to get better and bigger displays next season!

Great idea united09, any sort of fabric we can get hold of would work. We could do with a couple of big flags to wave around.
