    We'll not be putting the flag out tonight, I'll leave you to work out why. We packed it away after the game on Saturday because of the oncoming storm, and it would probably get damaged if we tried to put it out tonight.

    I just wanted you to know in case you thought it had blown away. We'll have another go for the Middleborough game, provided my problems with wind have gone away.

    Can't fault you for that Stahlost. Be such a shame if it got damaged given the effort that went into
    buying it. See that storm Dennis is due to hit on Saturday. Hoping it doesn't adversely affect our
    game at Craven Cottage.

    Thanks for that. It's actually less work now as we leave it in place all the time (apart from tonight!) and we only have to tweak it prior to games, to make sure it's tight and not flapping about. We've stopped taking it to away games as it was too much hassle trying to get permission, and even then it often didn't fit anywhere. Steve Bailey from the club has been very helpful with us, so thanks to him!

    Did you used to put a couple of flags in the East Lower near the away end a few years ago? Me Mum always used to call you flag man.

    If it's not you then it dunt apply.
