[Archived] Flag Fund

[VinjayV4]

I raised it with the Club a couple of weeks ago via email.

NO RESPONSE!!

Was that via Lynsey Talbot's address? Didn't get a response to my last email FAO Cheston/Myers though the one before that (which was just a short general question) I did.

[Mike Graham]

Mr Myers.

[Ben-2000]

He is usually very good at replying to be fair!

But the good thing at the minute is we have fans on this forum and on a Facebook group wanting something to happen

[Ben-2000]

Flag fund now set up, just thought I'd pass it on for anybody who may be interested!

[BlueMonday]

Nope, bad link.

[VinjayV4]

I have solved this conundrum by going to the site and typing "Blackburn Rovers" into the search box.

Up to £79.

Lets double the £400 requested.

[Ben-2000]

Thanks Vinjay... looks like I missed off the last letter!

[Baz]

Donation made, they should ask the club to double what is raised.

[Ben-2000]

Good idea Baz.

£120 donated so far, only 24hrs or so after being set up.

[Spalding Rover]

Tried to donate, won't take paypal, so will donate tomorrow can't be arsed to go get wallet out of van!!

any idea on what the flag is going to be?

[mhead]

Donated. Lets get it to half way today! Then exceed the figure and get other things like blue n white scarves to give to all new supporters under 18(for example).

Enjoyed the return of the Drummers.

Lets take control of the match day experience.

[Mike Graham]

What about a picture of Abbey on a flag?

I really like the style of the JW flag they have in the Darwen End, others along those lines would be my idea.

How much each would a flag like that cost?

[BlueMonday]

Already mentioned it, but a Champions '95 flag perhaps with the Prem Trophy on it. I also like the idea of a flag listing all our achievements that someone posted.

A Pride Of Lancashire Flag with Red Tudor Rose would be in order also.

You'd need a big flag!

[ABBEY]

You'd need a big flag!

and a little desktop one for thee

[MCMC1875]

Like a corner flag!!

[roversmillsy]

Will donate later on tonight.

I would like to see a Jack Walker flag with him holding the PL Trophy with something like "He had a dream" and "He achieved it" at the top and bottom.

As has been mentioned, a list of achievements that we have won on another.

A Pride of Lancashire flag needs to be made.

Dunny celebrating his injury time equaliser with "Dingle Destroyer" on it.

[ABBEY]

Like a corner flag!!

too tall

That particular flag (which is approx 3m x 2m) cost £180.00 a few years back.

I think the idea is to follow that style, ie waved on a pole.

Some great idea's, particulary about our history. no doubt this will feature on one of the flags.

[Pedro]

If that was a giant 'Kean Out' flag it would be well into the thousands now ☺
