Sadly with flags on poles we'd not get away with any of this at our home games. Is there any chance of getting an agreement with HTFC about us flying flags. They may suggest Cowshed Loyal move to a less crowded area, which I don't think would be too bad. because all seats are sold in the FLM so Cowshed loyal can't recruit anymore like minded people to that area. Hope I'm not being too negative, I just want it to be massive

There is loads of spare seats in the FML, especially in Section 6 where we sit. I'd say it was 50% full at best. Think the club must have held back seats for promotions or something.
Was talking to the saftey steward in the FML for quite some time after the Brentford match as he was asking me about things we might do in the future and he said that once someone is in the Stadium then the saftey officer has the final say, even over the club.
If we wanted to wave massive flags down the front then we'd have to be out of the stands & on the side of the pitch (like the cheerleaders do) and we'd have to arrange it with the club before hand. Could be worth looking into if we got some bigger flags made up I suppose.

Well done for making friends with the steward, that might help the cause. It was good to see the wallpaper 'sharp shooting' sign got in no problem. Does anybody know if there is a restriction on the size of banner allowed in there? I know its 1 metre long sticks. God knows how Crystal Palace/ Aberdeen/ York get away with it. Why don't we have some sort of Cowshed Loyal meeting and thrash out a few ideas etc

I know that those groups have been going for a good few years so they've probably come to some sort arrangement and proved that a flag pole wont kill anyone. Give it time & I think we could come to the same sort of agreement. We just need to take it slowly.

Green Brigade vs Rapid Just a bit of background on this. Celtic played Rapid in 1984 and they were winning 3-0 when one of the Jocks through a bottle on the pitch. It went near the keeper and he took a dive and pretended like he got hit. Game got called off and replayed at Old Trafford which Celtic lost. Basically they think Rapid cheated to get through. Rapid Fans @ the game: ;D ;D

Have you seen Oxford Utd fans flags etc. They have had recent agreement with the club's chairman about flying flags in the stadium. Its about time we got an agreement too . The situation on Saturday when the Cowshed Loyal flag was not aloud in is ridiculous

Tell me about it mate, was an utter joke.
TBF Sean has tried, but his hands are tied when it comes to the saftey guy. I've asked to meet with him (on more than one occasion) but he doesn't seem interested at all. Might have to resort to sneaking stuff in from now on......
