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

Great idea that

WE DON'T WANT ANY OF THOSE PAID PLASTIC FLAG WAVERS WHO START EVERY TIME A GOAL IS SCORED - LIKE BEHIND THE GOALS AT ARSENAL & BOLTON. BLOODY AWFUL!!!!

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

Dingle Destroyer is aimed too much at Burnley. I think any Burnley digs need to be subtle so that the flags are always relevant.

The same pic could be used, with 'David Dunn is Blue and White' as the caption?

Just donated, expected a bit more on there by now

Yep, only 17 people donating (albeit all very generous). Please support this great fans initiative.

[Ben-2000]

Pretty much halfway there now and enough for the first flag.

I have passed on all feedback & showing off our proud history has quite rightly come across as very important! So for the 1st flag expect to see something along those lines!

Will post updated as I get them!

[J*B]

Should we get a result today all the players will be on twitter, an ideal time to get them to RT this. Hell, might even do a CKR and donate some cash to a fan led initiative

[Davenport Nice]

I think the 'proud history' sentiment needs to focus as much on pre '95 as post '95. It's equally important and tells the full story that we were a force before Jack Walker....contrary to popular belief.

So glad to see Gav back on here.

A friend told me he'd died from heartburn. I said ' I can't believe Gaviscon '

[ABBEY]

he has no heart

Need to move this up the order whilst most of us are still licking our wounds after Saturday lunchtime.

[Mike Graham]

BUMP !!

Up to £227

Please support this initiative.

[koi]

I've just chucked in, will help out more if needed.

[Ben-2000]

Upto £257 now folks, creeping ever closer to the target!

on the day that Sir George Martin died, it is important to note that in most polls of Beatles songs the generally regarded as No 1 song of all the hundreds they wrote is:

A DAY IN THE LIFE...one of Sir George's and the Beatles finest production masterpieces.

Such a pinnacle of British Culture, with the words we all remember : 4000 Holes in Blackburn Lancashire : needs permanently commemorating by the fans of our Town's own No 1 Monument of our Town's Culture and History.

let's exceed the 400 pounds mark and get our own No 1 Flag....

On the day George Martin died, millions of GameOfThrones fans briefly shat themselves.

[Mike Graham]

Bump bump.

A Song of Ice & Fire.

A Song of Ice & Fire.

Touché!

[Ben-2000]

£300!

[Mike Graham]

£400!!

Well done to "Derek" for the very generous £100.

Can we raise a further £200 or even £400?

Ben, did the Club respond on matching the money raised?

[Ben-2000]

Very generous indeed! Yes I think the fundraiser can continue beyond its target!

I spoke to the club about this or providing one of their own along with reduced prices for the Huddersfield game, I'm told they are looking into it

[Ben-2000]

Also, just to add. The plan is to have the new flags in place for the Huddersfield game. This allows plenty of time for the fundraising (which as we know has now reached its target for 2 large flags), designs and turnaround time. Hopefully the club will get involved as per my last post.

[J*B]

Any decisions on what the flag will be?

[Ben-2000]

One of them will definately show off our proud history - this has been suggested both on here & social media.

Another suggestion has been blue and white halves with a Lancs rose in the middle, either that or the club badge...

Open to further suggestions and designs
