I borrowed the black & White picture from John Dewhirsts' book "Wool City Rivals" where he quoted "These photographs feature Valley Parade in the first half of the 1980s, before the disaster of 1985. The image below is of storm damage at Valley Parade in 1981", my bad. great read for the younger fans of what great rivalry there was between the two Bradford Football Club, cracking read.

 

What happened to our Bantams “covid era” flag?

 

I remember all that concrete debris on the kop very well, particularly the bits that used to come flying at us from away fans, Rotherham being one that sticks in the memory. At one time away fans had the half of the kop next to Midland Road.

 

Didn't those fences go up for the Southampton match ?

 

Any reason why it’s painted blue?

 

Blue paint was cheaper at the time they painted it ?.

 

One glaring error in this flag thing is how do you hold the cards up while holding a flag above your head? This could go terribly wrong.

 

Only in your head

 

You could be right there.

 

I'm more confused than ever. Better to have cards as players come out and reveal the flag as they come out after half time.

 

This might be a dumb question on this, but is the flag being passed from the kop to the midland stand and going down there too?

 

This reminds me of when there was loads of balloons with tags on them, making them too heavy to float off, set up on the pitch before kickoff. Staff, players and possibly fans, having to come onto the pitch and stamp on them.

 

A good compromise would be to have the flag covering the empty seats on the TL Dallas Stand.

 

Sensible approach to a dilemma that, I like it.

 

And watch everyone duck as there doing it

 

No he is the flag flutterer.

 

Marek is a big lad and can handle himself.

 

New instructions with the flag and cards.
Ths stadium announcer will do the prompting and he will give the prompt to raise the cards when the flag is in position.
Sorted.

 

I just want to go to the match and relax.
