Other idea was

Jürgen Go Far
Our Kid

or

Jürgen-a Go Far
Our Kid

White on red sheet obviously. It's based off an Offspring album title from 2008. All three of these ideas shite? If so, if you fancy suggesting something feel free

Actually, both of them are sound.

Might I also suggest

To Take Us To The Jaws Of Victory

Jurgen-a Need A Bigger U-boat

Scud02 is getting a Kenny banner made by footballflags.co.uk. Looking at their website, they seem to be very professional.

Thanks but they charge a fortune, mine is 'make it yourself-able' so I will probably do that.

Why do people recommend Acrylic paint on felt? (I know fuck all about paint)

Cheers

Acrylic will dry out the fabric and flake off, you'll need some fabric medium to mix it with.

Hey lads anyone got any idea how to Fireproof a hand made flag and get a Fire Safety Certificate sorted for it? Sick of having to sneak it in the bottom of a bag at away games.

You can buy fire proofing spray stuff that you just spray on to the flag, but I don't know how you then get a cert for it.

Edit: actually looks like you can get something from the people who make the fire retardant sprays. e.g. this website: http://www.fireretardantspray.co.uk/Fabric-Test-Certificates.pdf. It won't be a cert for your actual flag but will probably be enough to get it in to an away ground.

There should be certified companies that will spray them with fire retardant spray and attach a certificate. I'm on my phone but will try and remember to look online and link some tomorrow.

Anyone know if cotton drill is good to paint on and if so what paint to use on it?

We’re making a big banner for Kiev, we only normally take a little one on trips and that usually doesn’t make it into the ground. I take it this fire proof stuff is just for domestic games and it won’t be a problem there? It’s 12x5 foot.

I'm not sure, but to give an idea of regs in Ukraine, the Dynamo Kiev site says:

Quote

– banners and flags with dimensions of 2 х 1.5 m and less, made of hardly inflammable materials on plastic elastic hollow holders, the dimensions of which do not exceed 1.5 m in length and 5 cm in diameter;

http://www.fcdynamo.kiev.ua/en/club/stadium/tour/

Sounds similar to our regulations.

Where can you get flags printed? Made a few by hand but fancy getting one made.
Thanks
