Keep it to yourself or give your time and effort to help make them even better in future.

 

What a weird take, coming to the thread and trying to piss on someone's chips who's out there putting the work in.

 

 

Really, don't you find such things a bit childish. It's not very pc to call it out but after all the fuss was 'blues' really worth the expenditure, must have taken a right brainstorming session to choose that.

Folk have to remember the levels to this which impose the realms of possibilities to a completely independent organisation. 
 

There was a very, very quick turnaround with this display. Literally Wednesday approval and had to be ready for Saturday morning. 
 

The sheer logistics and additionally restrictions (via approvals or physical) give levels of complexities to it. 
 

They’ve been criticised for doing the huge banners ala Dogs of Wars because people can’t see the players run out. They are also a huge, huge task; to simply find the space to paint them. 
 

For years they wanted to do the pulley system of hanging a banner from the stand structure which is far more common on the continent to pull off really beautiful, grand designs but the club didn’t permit it. Then they did it themselves for the Champions League.

Absolutely, hardly an inspirational moment though was it for a grand.

Well don't they all cost about a grand ? They have already said this has been brought forward and take a lot of planning. So I can't imagine they ever thought we would be in the situation we are currently.

Thought it looks great and the fact we are leading this in England is a credit to the UFS it's the only thing we have as a club currently. 

 

Let the haters hate, you will never please everyone. My mate who I went with wasn't really aware of your efforts and thought it was the club that actually funded and put it together, after I told him about you guys and he didn't believe it. So kudos to you all. 

Does this chap sit in the kop? Only we put a leaflet on every seat informing supporters of the display and asking them to participate. Nine times out of ten it mentions they are all fan funded and how to support them. 
I have thought at times it is semi wasted cash but perhaps not if that message is still not getting through.

He does sit in the kop, but is very much 'there for the football' if that makes sense. He sings and claps along but isn't that interested in the fan culture aspect of it all. Never had been to be fair. But when I explained it all to him he was amazed that it was just a group of fans. 

 

Re the leaflets, could you do one per 2 seats? Not that many fans that go on their own so majority would still see the message? Might cut the costs a little?

Yeah good ideas.

 

Thank you for passing on the info on it being supporter made etc. Hopefully the club giving us a tag on it all has helped that too. First time we have had that from them since the first tifo we did way back when.

Were we shouting for Brum? Blues? £850 for that, hardly inspiring stuff like Dogs of War etc. Thank god they bought the clappers back 🤣🤣🤣

If you need money box it up and sell it to Birmingham or Chelsea we have never been known as “blues”

Always loved the effort and Tifos that UnionFS have done, but this was one of my least favorite.

 

The green black and white below the scarf was not clear at all, and all in all pretty uninspiring. Unusual for UFS, as their efforts to date have been brilliant imo. 

 

Onwards and upwards. 

Miserable willy pullers

You're right. Not once over the last 28 years have I chanted or heard chanted "blues", especially after six rhythmic claps.

Just donated. It's not much but I really appreciated seeing it on Saturday. Keep up the effort and keep singing!

You know what colour we play in, right?

Absolutely, the same as several hundred other teams that's the point. You do know Birmingham City's official nickname is the blues right? And ours is The Foxes right?

Yeah. Not like we have a single song about being the 'Foxes' though.

 

No club has any more of an exclusive right over being 'Blues' than they do of being 'City', for example.

£200 now, thank you.

It would be wonderful if we could get to half the amount of the display back from donations.

Is your PayPal account down? As it didn’t work…  Or should I send a few quid to James Challinor as I’ve done before?

Yes our business one is, however that one there which is on the donations poster is correct and will get to us.

Thank you for the support.
