Tamworthram Posted September 22, 2021 Share Posted September 22, 2021 Whatever happened to that other very big flag (can’t remember exactly what on it)? I think it appeared once never to be seen again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it appeared once never to be seen again. If you mean the one we did, it was the size of an upper tier block in the south stand and said We Are Derby with tonnes of Rams legends on it. It has been missing for a good few years now. We packed it away after using it, and when we came back, it wasn't there anymore. Nobody at the club could ever explain what happened to it. The theory is that they were building the Yard at the time, it somehow ended up in there and the builders chucked it away with their waste. So that was nice. As for all the other flags we did, again, they were left with the club to use once we stopped operating. Last I heard they were left out in the rain or stored whilst wet, and when they went back to them, they were all green/mouldy/disgusting and got thrown away too. Shame really.

Inverurie Ram Posted September 22, 2021 Share Posted September 22, 2021 I will be at the Swansea game Sat 2nd Oct 2021 with the Aberdeenshire Rams flag and probably in the Silk Mill pub lunch time onwards for pre match drinks before the game and in the Brunswick Inn for post match drinks with friends, if anyone would like to say hello, before enjoying many other pubs. I will also be at the Bournemouth game Sat 20th Nov 2021 with the Aberdeenshire Rams flag and in the same pubs. D.C.F.C. Love, Life & Unity.

The flags were being bought by a mix of fan donations, donations from Mel and from the club directly. After initially being pretty much all fan donations, I think by that point the majority was from Mel or the club. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ewe Ram Posted September 23, 2021 Share Posted September 23, 2021 I’m so old that I remember when a flag day meant a bucket collection and you would get a little paper flag on a pin for your lapel. So I thought you were organising a collection outside the ground. Ellafella, Indyram and archram 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
