Wembley FA Cup Final Villa Surfer Flag

[purpletrousers]

I like the idea but I think the flag is terrible. It shouldn't make reference to them.

same here.

Indeed great idea, poor choice & unncessary choice to define ourselves in relationship to others. I sing myself hoarse, my voice still hasn't recovered from the semi (and yes I'm a bit hardcore about this) but I never sing against or mention any other team, my choice to support my team. I don't wish others ill.  Not a fan of the whole "I don't care about..." Stuff either. Yep I know it's all banter/light hearted but just my choice.

Was disappointed how quiet we went against Southampton...

'Here's the Aston Villa'? Shouldn't that be 'here's Aston Villa'?

[Mister E]

Not a fan of the flag design but great to see the energy in putting it together.

[Jimbo]

It isn't original either, St Pauli have had flags and t-shirts with this design for years.

[Gerrin]

I still have the gigantic silk flag. Not flame-proof, though, so it cannot be brought into the ground.

I assume that such a flag as this would have to go through some sort of approval process from Wembley before being allowed in, and I imagine it's not straight forward?

As other have mentioned great idea, not too sure about the design though.

[flybo]

only need Villa on the flag

[Chipsticks]

Why not just take the one from the Holte lower and use that? Does it belong to an individual or is it the club's?

It belongs to the club but it's too big for the lower tier of Wembley.

[Gerrin]

Looks like the targets been smashed anyway.

Mixed feelings on this- great to see fan initiative pay off and succeed- it will never be possible to please all of the people all of the time, we would never agree on exact design details.

My own personal opinion though is that using the flag to troll Arsenal is a tad embarrassing and small time- makes me think of Paul Tait (too far perhaps!).

Agreed. Bring a flag by all mean, but it should be all about the Villa. Name checking other clubs is small time and chip on the shoulder stuff. Leave that sort of thing to Small Heath and co.

I'm sorry for those involved, but I think it's rubbish. Why oh why make reference to another team!?

Over a grand raised since I left home and got to work.  Impressive.

All that money, but still "My garden shed....."

I love punk rock.
I love Villa.

I don't get this at all, especially the reference to another team.
