At the end of the day they are where we were in 2009. Ordering flags and trying to make the gantry full. They don't actually have a place to put theirs yet though. I am shocked they are trying to get so many on order.

Laughable. Where was you pre Brigantes 2010? At home on the couch??
It's quite simply a brilliant piece of blinkered Pie revisionist history:
The original Sally Cinnamon Funbus flag dates from 2000, and the World Champs flag 2001.
London Away 2002:
I designed/collected/ordered the Gerard Songsters flag in time for the 2002 Challenge Cup Final at Murrayfield.
FB One love and the Redvee flag followed in 2004 as they were at the Millennium stadium when we beat you, and I think United Colours of St Helens dates from 2005.
The Pop Side 2005
They were deffo all in place by Easter 2006 on our first ever game at Catalan as they were hung on the bridge:
Twickers 2006:
So Pre 2006:
Gerard Songsters
Redvee flag
Funbus Sally Cinnamon
World Champs 2001
United Colours of St Helens
FB - One Love
Thats about £2500 worth of flags before anything else.

=#000000That's 16 that I can think of off the top of my head. Nearly all of them have meaning and made by many different groups and its evolved over the years.
Your flags began around 2007 - Alex Graham (I think) liked our flags and asked where we had them
made, and your very first one was made at Barmy Flags - the Ancient and Loyal one.
It's only in the last year or so you've decided to form their Ultra clan and produce flags on a rapid scale, and a lot of Wiganers jumped on board and got some made, its a decent effort, especially with ready made spot on the top of their South Stand.... But remember it should always be quality over quantity.
Laughable to think you actually believe your being original though when all you've done is simply copy what we've done for years previous , whilst manufacturing their Brigante Ultra title to give yourselves a name, with a couple of lads fundraising and pushing it.
As for Pin badges? Been done 5 years back.
You're quickly becoming the Chelsea fans of Rugby League with your hasty manufactured atmosphere and policy of one group spraypainting as many bedsheets as they can so you can match us.
QUALITY > QUANTITY.
