After all the interest in doing a big flag for the Palace game, I can confirm that it has been designed and ordered! Between this and the TIFO that Lee is organising we should see the stadium in a sea of red and white, ready to cheer the boys on to a famous FA Cup victory and no doubt drawing Wimbledon in the 6th Round. Woo hoo.

A number of people mentioned donating to the cost (these things certainly are not cheap!), so I've taken the liberty of setting up a GoFundMe page if anyone would like to make a donation. All donations gratefully received, small oor large, and every penny will go towards the flag costs (after GoFundMe take their fees)

If you would like to donate, then please head across to https://www.gofundme.com/drfc-fans039-big-flag-appeal

Thanks in advance if you are able to contribute.

Just about to chuck a fiver in from my dad as well. He's not one for bouncing around but appreciates when fans put the effort in for this kinda stuff.

Done - come on lads help this cause over the line .
One thing can we make sure this flag doesn't go missing - even if out of date I'm sure they can be used in the concourse or even auctioned ; I've forgotten how many flags we've all put in for over the years . They are part of our heritage.

Btw a big thanks to Rob for putting his hand in his pocket and sorting this out for us all AGAIN

It’s a great idea , the old shirt flag could adorn some of the wall space on the south stand concourse perhaps?

my response was to your idea about hanging the shirt flag up in the concourse, would look great!

Why cant you see it on TV, Idler?

I'll be on a P & O ship off Norway so not sure about reception.

You will get the game via satellite if you ask nicely, what ship are you on

idler · « **Reply #24 on** February 07, 2019, 05:13:08 pm by idler »

The Oriana. Never been on it before.
