Title: Confetti/streamer display v Spurs
Post by: bruisedshins on December 22, 2012, 12:30:24 PM
For the game against Spurs on boxing day we've organised a streamer and confetti display to cover the back half of L8 and L7. On your seat you will find either a streamer or a bag of confetti. As the players run towards the Holte End look for the large flag being waved at the middle section of L7, by the concourse. When it waves remove the confetti from the bag and throw the confetti in the air. If you have a streamer, unravel a metre or so off the end before throwing it. To make the biggest visual impact it's important that the streamers and confetti are thrown at the same time. We really appreciate everyones help in making this display work.

So, that's unravel a metre of the confetti and put the streamer in the bag. And make sure we don't let the Prince leave the room.

Are you for real ?
It is a confetti and streamer display.
You can always stay at home and watch it on the nemesis of football.

If you stole the toilet roll (and the toilet seats) from the police station they would have nothing to go on!

Cheek in tongue, streamers in boxes, confetti to be rolled out a metre at a time....I am confused!

Times have changed, you'll now be banned for life and investigated under the "Saville and others" bracket and put on the sex offenders register.

I will put up with you young people throwing your confetti and streamers. Just make sure you don't stand up to do it.

Do you hear me?      Sit down!   Sit down!   >:(

Someone is going to need to throw a bog roll at my arse in a minute. I sense the first purge of yesterdays gargantuan food helpings coming on.

Sucker for punishment at this time of year as well.

I had a bit of breakfast and we have gone out for a family lunch. One Tex Mex steak just hoovered and the key lime pie is on order for afters.

I may explode.

For those interested here's a video of the display. There's things the group could've done to better coordinate the display more effectively but for a first effort it went reasonably well. Cheers to all those involved.

Fair play to you for giving it a try, perhaps if co-ordinated for an away match you might get more of the guys who are perhaps less lethargic. Not a criticism just more of an observation. Bradford away perhaps?
Lets face it, the team needs all the help it can get at the moment and if the opposing striker slips on some bog roll just as he's about to despatch one into the back of our net then it'll have worked!
