We’ve had 7 or 8 supporters groups from teams up and down the country asking us for advise now, so we must be doing something right! I don’t think there’s anything we can do regarding the third or so of fans that just point blank won’t wave a flag for 2 minutes, every flag was accompanied with info about the display and it was well publicised on all social media. Anyhow, the sheer number of flags we’re now able to distribute means we can still create a decent spectacle regardless. Anyone who isn't getting involved needs ****ing off to 13/14 where it's sterile and distanced. I just hope that third doesn't detrimentally effect future displays/efforts!

I think the footage of the displays at the last couple of home gamed will start to draw people in. Sadly, some people will always need it to be an established "thing" before they'll join in but the plaudits being drawn from the last few games should help (the video you put together of the FGR game for example is class and will surely generate interest). It's also starting to become synonymous with the team's on field success. Cotterill specifically mentioned the fans after Saturday's game; playing on this angle will surely help as well.

Yes every time we have a corner I want to start ‘Come On You Blues’ Synonymous with the Shrewsbury Corner or is that just my memory? Could we get it going again?
Flags in 1979 I don’t remember?

Right up until the new ground, maybe even in the new ground occasionally but has totally vanished now. Used to love it.
