Nice flag

Good to see again, It was noticed by lots during world cup
 
Does anyone know what happened to the ‘Birdwell Blades’ flag, or who the owner is? Wouldn’t mind getting hold of it to take on our ‘every match’ mission this season.
 
I must be living in the past…Didn’t even know fingering had gone away.
It was an absolute art when I was a teenager . There were underground fingering master classes in Aston cum Aughton , no fee , no questions asked - just join as a novice and work your way through fingering tuition until Linda Dempsey passed or failed you - exams , if I remember, took place either at Ulley or Trenton Dyke woods .

I , and many others , used to purposefully fail our final fingering exam so we could start again .

Great days

Wonder whatever happened to Linda ? What a Fanny
 



Very slightly intrigued to know who and what the inside joke is.
 
I don't think there is any inside joke. Bring Back Fingering is just one of those phrases that has cropped up over time. I think there was a Cosmopolitan article on it once. You can buy t shirts, mugs, car stickers. People have tattoos. There have been fake political campaigns. Internet petitions. We have lots of Bring Backs.

Bring Back National Service. Bring Back Hanging. Bring Back Three At The Back.

It's just a silly phrase written on a silly flag. I'm involved with the loose grouping of England Travelling Blades. They help each other out. Lifts. Loans. Info on flights. There is an unofficial ticket office (of course). Paperwork at hospitals and local magistrate courts. Blagging. They can't do enough for each other. A proper Terrace Culture.

Just a silly phrase on a flag.

Don't forget up near cemetery, Aston ponds and behind cricket club
I'll post this to the Aston, Swallownest Aughton Facebook page see if we can find her for you 😉
 
Any recommendations where to get a flag done? Looked online but some look like cheapo rubbish.

Absolutely

I think she’s actually somewhere in the cemetery at Swallownest tbh - doing what though I’m not so sure 👍
 
Did he ever explain why he has the Charlton logo on his blades flag?
Charlton use that "logo" on their badge, but it's not their logo. It has a wider historical meaning. United have a Rose on our badge, but it's not "our" Rose.
 
Still, might have looked better with our logo.
Of course, but the flag we nicked, (well actually, our Sheffield Wednesday supporting mate nicked) from a City of London institution, already had the City of London logo on it.
So that clears that up.
