GuyGermanLatic Posted January 30, 2013 Share Posted January 30, 2013 I'm not asking for opinions on this one, I'd just like a straight answer. Where does the club stand on fans bringing flags into the ground? I've seen a few before in the Chaddy but, a while back, when I tried to bring my own, I was turned away as it had a wooden stick, which was considered a weapon. Also had the same problem later that season at Doncaster away. What are the rules? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

opinions4u Posted January 30, 2013 Share Posted January 30, 2013 Appropriate discretion, I'd say. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rudemedic Posted January 30, 2013 Share Posted January 30, 2013 They don't like ones with wooden sticks and haven't since the mid 90s. Some grounds don't like flags without an appropriate fire safety certificate and over a certain size. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GuyGermanLatic Posted January 30, 2013 Author Share Posted January 30, 2013 Was told elsewhere just to chuck it over and have a friend catch it but... Somehow can't imagine it'd look good if I were pulled. I'll see. Took the time to email the club anyway, just wanted to see if anyone was sure. In the meantime, I can't believe it's this complex to have a flag at a ground. Christ. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You could really bend those rules though to either get me in the ground or get me locked out. Thats just a piece of cloth ??? Wrap it around your arm. Improvise! Yes you are allowed flags in the ground, I have one and as has already been stated, make sure it doesn't have a stick with it What form of wafty thing do you use if not a stick? Also, where can I get one? Edited January 30, 2013 by GuyGermanLatic Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

iamjonesyyoafc Posted January 30, 2013 Share Posted January 30, 2013 had mine in the ground on sunday and I noticed a few others did, including the appropriately named 'FLAGMAN' i think. As long as it's wooden stick and not a metal pole I think you should be fine. Was stopped from taking it into Bramall Lane on the stick as it had no fire safety certificate but it was fine for me to drape it over my back, what difference does it make if it's going to burn?

RoytonLatics Posted January 30, 2013 Share Posted January 30, 2013 What's happened to the giant flag? Would look great on the telly if we could get it into the chaddy, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NewBlue Posted January 30, 2013 Share Posted January 30, 2013 What's happened to the giant flag? Would look great on the telly if we could get it into the chaddy, The Fortune Favours the Brave flag? If you mean that one then it was between the Main Stand and RRE on the old terracing along with the Frankfurt flag and a few other ones that were visible on tele.

AndyGortonsMatches Posted January 30, 2013 Share Posted January 30, 2013 The keep the faith flag was going mouldy at the back of the chaddy over 10 years ago and eventually vanished. Was it chucked or cleaned? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
