It's been mentioned on here a few times previously about getting a new flag organised for this season and I think the majority agreed that it would be great to get some recognition of Tommy Sale's work for the club following his retirement this year.

The flag is likely to be in a similar design to the 'Our Town Our Team Our Dream' flag and I think the phrase "Arise Sir Tommy..." would be particularly fitting but more than open to ideas from people if they have any other slogan suggestions.

With the help of Matt Sale and the rest of the Sale clan, the following photographs have been selected as the shortlist to be used on the flag. Please use the poll above to select your preferred option.

I've personally gone for number three as that's the Tommy that I recognise (if that makes sense) and I just love the post in that photo.

I think Picture 1 would be the easiest to use in terms of contrast and would look the best. However Picture 3 just sums it all up. Tommy in front of the stand named after him with the fans behind him. Perfect.

Gotta be pic 3, fantastic photo

Number 3, but number one wants displaying somewhere, if not on a flag

Pic 3 for me. Let me know if and when you get it Matt and i'll chip in if you want.

Deffo no 3 for me too

One clear leader at the minute! Will ask our designer to have a go and see if he can incorporate the stand somehow as a bit of a dummy run. Will get on to the subject of collecting cash once we have a confirmed design and quote.

I"llchip in matt

pic 3 all the way! can't wait till we have the flag on the terraces!

Count me in Matt, pic 3 for me as well.

Way were going , gonna have more flags then fans

Deffo no 3 picture

Count me in Matt

Must say number 3 could be turned into a cracking flag

I'll throw in.

We should have a design for the weekend. Have requested that the stand is included in it somehow.

I`ll chip in Matt.....let me know how much

Im the image 5 vote.
Not sure why but just think it would look great on a flag.

Do you want to chip in with us J20.

Just had a look at picture 3 again.

Is it just me or does the stand seem to be sloping from left to right ?

Optical illusion i think Frank as the pitch looks like Batleys as well.

N03 is the one but before you get it done have a look with the horizon leveled with the top of the flag as it may it may look odd printed straight from that picture

What's with AJM and all the bling in picture2 ??

Has he started moonlighting as a Bobby George 'looky-likey'??

Got some preliminary designs through, personal favourite is the top one though I've asked if he can incorporate the frame of the stand from the original photo with the floodlights etc.

Bottom one would get my vote - do we need another poll???

Where's Jonny when you need him?!



Mind you, I think it would be nice if Tommy himself could have a casting vote in it - Saley's of this forum, over to you lads!
