Heron Posted October 25, 2017 Share Posted October 25, 2017 Is the focus on one-off displays now? Sorry if that’s been asked. Fantastic work either way. Not entirely. The displays will normally feature the professionally made flags such as the legends and surfers, kit flags, etc. As these are kind of our bread and butter. We'll try and keep it as fresh as possible so that from game to game it is slightly different. However, for bigger games or on odd occasions we will try to go more tifo and "one off" with the production of new and relevant banners, such as last weekend. The Rafa and JL flags can be utilized a lot more but the accompanying slogan maybe not. The main intention is to keep it fresh, but also expected if that makes sense. The base level should be bog standard wavers and the large surfer at least, it's what should be expected. The stuff on top of that (or occasionally instead) should be fresh just to keep people interested and motivated. That goes for the players too. Now that JL has one, maybe other team members might wonder where their's are. Hopefully it inspires them and gets their attention / captures their imagination. Hope that makes sense.

Heron Posted October 25, 2017 Share Posted October 25, 2017 FYI the Lascelles song is: We've got our captain at the back - Lascelles, Lascelles, He's gonna stop your teams attack - Lascelles, Lascelles, We've got our captain at the back, he's gonna stop your teams attack, we've got La-scelles; captain of the mags! Nana nana nana nana, Lascelles! Lascelles! Nana nana nana nana, Lascelles! Lascelles! We've got our captain at the back, he's gonna stop your teams attack, we've got La-scelles; captain of the mags! [repeat] nice. Could change up the 3rd line though? edit - We've got our captain at the back - Lascelles, Lascelles, He's gonna stop your teams attack - Lascelles, Lascelles, A Ritchie corner from the left, Lascelles goes up, it's in the net, we've got La-scelles; captain of the mags Class, maybe "Jaaaamal" instead of "we've got". Might give that a go. Gonna have to try and memorise this before I give it a 10minute airing vs Bournemouth Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heron Posted October 25, 2017 Share Posted October 25, 2017 Couldn't remember mate was just answering off the top of my head. Liverpool used for Torres and many other fan groups have used it previously IIRC. Just works well for JL and cannot think of many other catchy tunes that do Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was The Clash not Johnny was? Stiff Little Fingers? Aye, "Johnny was" was SLF (seen them a few times, best at the Ulster Hall) can't think of a punk band singing "Johnny comes marching home" or maybe I'm pissed/stoned (delete as appropriate) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heron Posted October 27, 2017 Share Posted October 27, 2017 Aye It's not the standard "Ultra" approach but here in the UK that wouldn't really get us anywhere. Obviously a rapport with the club has already been established too under Gallowgate Flags and to be honest whilst it's all one way we need to try and keep them on side. Nonetheless, we're trying to push boundaries and really make ourselves pioneers in English football for bringing back the type of atmosphere you see elsewhere across the globe. Hopefully, in the long term this will include safe standing (imo) and flags going all game. Rather than being abused by middle aged men because they missed the players enter the field of play. For us it's about developing a culture and under this manager it's our best opportunity. We're going to be looking at ways of developing this culture later in the season and there's a couple of ideas up my sleeve but just need to run it by the lads once the Leicester game is done. We're trying not to tell people too much as we feel the displays are better when they're a surprise. However, on occasion for the sake of transparency we may need to at least release some information to be clear what people are donating to. Sorry for the essay, just trying to provide a little more insight. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
