Does the fact that it is about 4 times bigger, a completely different shape, a different layout and a different font, and also he fact it is now split into more than one banner, give you any pointers?

Added to that, why would anyone want to take a banner out of the museum? With all the risks of damage that incurs.

Sorry guys, I want to ask again - the Make us Dream banner is back.  Is it the original back from the museum, or has it been remade?  I don't know why I want to know so badly, but I do - and somebody on here must know...

Pretty sure its a remake, seen it out when we greeted the coach for the City game and here it is on the Kop for the Spurs game 2 weeks ago.

Sure the Kop will look fantastic on Sunday. Don't need little plastic flags left on our seats or pay stewards to wave flags on the edge of the pitch.
Its supposed to be spontaneous and natural.
Noticed more and more teams having stewards waving flags as the teams come out. Pretty sad when you have to force it. Mind you I'm surprised Sky haven't started having pyro's like at the Wales 6 nation games.

I'd rather not be a dick about this, but since you've started it with the cheap point scoring...

Pretty sure its a remake, seen it out when we greeted the coach for the City game and here it is on the Kop for the Spurs game 2 weeks ago.



That picture...

Has a make us dream banner (and if you really need proof it's not an old photo there is another banner with the 2005 European Cup win celebrated in the same photo) which very closely resembles the original - not the one which is split into three, which I'm obviously not stupid enough to think is the same one.

You must have known I was asking about the banner in the above photo, but well done on the sarcastic cheap laugh.

Maybe those stewards are actually just designated fans. It could be just simpler for them to do that, rather than have banners willy-nilly in the crowd.
I wouldn't put Benfica fans in the same bracket as Chelsea's for example. Their fans are usually great.

Ancelotti and Arbeloa know the score...we can really influence the result here....give it loads fellas...the lads will respond to every chant and every breath of encouragement...even if we go 1 down keep the pressure up...those who have the good fortune to have tickets have the duty to put the wind up the Real players...get into the ground early and get your lungs growling...

Missed kick off in the Ludogorets match - f*cking M62, gets me every night match (not looking forward to the extensions for that reason) so trying to set off even earlier tomorrow. But even if I am dripping with sweat from having to run from Cherry Lane, I'll feel as privileged as I always do to have a ticket on the Kop for another massive game.

It will be a night when we make magic happen, and I can't wait!!!

Lets get in the ground early, make it rocking as early as the Madrid players are on the pitch doing their pre-match warm up.

If you want another pint, grab yourself a bottle of overpriced, luke warm carlsberg and neck it before you get up the steps. ;)
